Taking patent, trademark, and copyright laws to what they were in, say, 1790, might be a good start.

Regard today's billionaires with the same contempt that one does of criminals.

Wait at least 5 years before buying a new computer.

Don't pay by credit card.

Foreign investment would be an economic boost for Mexico. The company has claimed that a plant there would create about 10,000 jobs. A Tesla competitor, BYD markets its Dolphin Mini model in Mexico for about 398,800 pesos—about $21,300 dollars—a little more than half the price of the cheapest Tesla model.

The IDF has probably also murdered more LGBTs, and women who were bareheaded in public, this year than has the Islamic Republic of Iran.

from a forum I used to be on:

According to the Supreme Court who ruled that presidents can do whatever they want and be immune if it’s technically official business, Biden can just blow up Mar-a-lago now and be done with it. No need to waste taxpayer money with elections and all that malarkey.

wp:Human rights in the Maldives

The constitution declares Islam as the state religion of the Maldives and states that all Maldivian nationals are required to be Sunni Muslims.[13] It is illegal in the country to proselytize any religion other than Islam, and advocate for secularism or the separation of church and state. Apostasy and atheism are also outlawed and those who identify as or accused of being apostates or atheists are punishable by death by Maldivian law (though unenforced) and are often subject to vigilante violence or attacks with little or no consequences for perpetrators by the authorities.

...

Defamation and Speech "contrary to the tenets of Islam" is illegal.

...

As the state partially practices Sharia law in some matters, homosexuality is illegal. The punishment for men is nine months to one year imprisonment, or 10 to 30 lashes. The punishment for women is nine months to one year of house arrest.[3]

She added that, if GOP lawmakers are unwilling to respond to the reproductive health care needs of women, she hopes that voters will get a chance later this year. A push to enshrine the right to abortion in the state’s constitution is well on its way to qualifying for the November ballot.
