New Republic compares Musk's assault on the constitutional to Appomattox (Civil War)
It was a landslide election win. Americans overwhelmingly voted for change and to dismantle the deep state. We were mocked for stating it existed, now its getting torn down and the left are wigging out. Im sorry, but you are on the wrong side of this.- 1

Road Safety in Thailand – a summary of Perceptions and Reality
If you actually read and comprehended what I've been saying, it has nothing to do with race. It's observation by myself and many others here, who all seem to understand all about what makes accidents, how they can be prevented, and most importantly, who has primary responsibility in an accident, which seems to avoid your understanding. Others have also said the same things I have, yet you also dismiss them, thinking you're some kind of expert and know more than we do. You don't. Assuming I don't understand what critical thinking is another downfall of yours. I know a lot more than you ever will on what constitutes accidents and why they happen. I've studied psychology for the last 35 plus years, which means I also understand people like you, who assume they know others by just a few posts in an online forum. You have been wrong in every reply to me, yet you still go one, much like a few others here who also think they're smarter. You're not. YOU ARE NOT COMPREHENDING WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING. I come to this conclusion because you constantly make errors assuming what I'm saying and miss where I'm saying the same things you are. I proved my point many replies ago, but you're still coming back saying the same exact things. Thailand has a higher accident rate because the police do not enforce the rules already there, as I've said many times. Roads here aren't great, but they're still better than some other countries where there are less accidents. I have no "obsession" with bad drivers. I have seen them for the last 51 years of driving, both here and in other countries and almost all states in the US. What I do see is more ignorance of the laws here, as well as more recklessness in driving, more people cutting others off, more people ignoring the laws they know about (helmet wearing), more people weaving in and out of traffic on motorbikes,, more, much more, trucks overloaded both high and wide, more people driving into oncoming traffic instead of going around someone in front of them in the next lane, more people driving too close to the car in front of them, these along with other things connda mentioned in a few replies before. You are making excuses for local drivers and putting it more on the other factors that constitute what makes accidents happen. It's first, the driver's responsibility, to follow the laws they should have learned about during the test and by watching others older than them driving when they were growing up. Now read these lines a few times and try to see what I'm saying.............Many things make accidents happen, from driver inability or ignorance, to driving after drinking or using drugs, to speeding, following too close to other drivers, weaving in and out of traffic, and not using defensive driving skills, along with arrogance, incompetence and ignorance. Bad roads contribute to accidents because the DRIVER isn't using good sense while driving, either speeding or taking turns too wide or hitting potholes they would have missed if going slower. Bad enforcement of the laws has drivers getting away with BAD driving and if they were ticketed, they MIGHT think twice before committing the same infraction again, but probably not because of ARROGANCE towards laws and disrespect to others on the roads. Don't bother coming back if you think you're going to show me up and think you're smarter by repeating the same ignorant statements about my not knowing what really makes accidents happen. You aren't and I don't even know you, but I know your type, and ignorance is one of their greatest flaws. You are also ignoring others or answering them the same way, thinking you're the expert here and others don't already know what you know. We knew it in high school. -

what money is taxed 2024 ?
Why would they do that if the point of the exercise is to broaden the tax base and bring in more funds? Why would Thailand unilaterally give up taxing rights if they have authority to tax under the DTA? Why would they do this? Because this is what's now incorporated in the latest OECD and UN Model tax treaties. Kind of an adjunct to no double taxation -- but in this case, no taxation by country B, if no taxation by country A (assuming it's subject to taxation by country A, and not exempt because you're a non resident). The US-UK DTA is the prime example. Written after Roth IRAs were invented (unlike the Thai-US DTA, written before Roth), the US was able to incorporate, via subsequent protocol into the DTA, the following (from the US-UK tech explanation): So, this is probably where Carden was coming from -- TRD is looking at doing what the US-UK protocol did re Roth IRAs. But, for now, it's kind of in limbo. The US-Thai DTA has no mention of Roth IRAs (Code section 408a not mentioned), so there's nothing in the DTA that says Roth IRAs are treated the same as Traditional IRAs or private pensions. So how are they treated? I dunno. It wouldn't be that hard for the "competent authorities" (the nomenclature for the folks who can modify DTAs) to do a handshake protocol. Or, even Thailand could go it alone, with a modification of its domestic tax law re Roths, which would be allowed, as it wouldn't violate the DTA policy affecting double taxation. Meanwhile, if you are remitting Roths, I'd do a good screening of the arguments for Por 162 encompassing Roth IRAs -- and feel confident that Roth income is definitely pre 2024 income -- and even more so than traditional IRAs, this income is 'after tax' -- and thus even more solidly considered "savings." -

Pattaya Responds to Criticism Over Viral Video of Indian Tourists Sleeping on Beach
Many years ago, I was at a friends condo. They had a big pool with people swimming. An Indian lady with a toddler walked past the toilets and had the boy pee into the pool. I doubt it was spite, but in what country, in what world would this be acceptable behaviour? Sure, I come from a different culture but it is beyond my ability to comprehend how this is acceptable in any culture.. I doubt there is any law on the books, no more so than you would not pee in someone's living room. So, there is likely no penalty set up in the system for this. I would think that all cultures have a knowledge and respect for the most basic cleanliness and respect for others. Right? And you do understand how this might reflect on the entire culture. Right?
