  • Some people claim to use them to plug generators into their homes when the lights go out.

    But your generator should plug into some place before the main panel, and it’s easy to put the right connector on that one place destined to it and where you shouldn’t plug anything else. So it’s people not prepared to use a generator, that want to use one anyway, and that have to be sure to disconnect it before the power comes back on or they will find the main use-case for the cable (AKA, the one on the meme).









  • Yes, inequality is increasing in the US.

    But I don’t really get how that relates. Anyway, may point is that if you bracket the tax at high enough incomes, maybe not even a 99% marginal tax rate will suffice for making rich people move away. Those people are rich, they don’t care about spending some money to live where they want.

    The same is not true about the poor, by the way. It’s easy to tax them so much that they leave.

    And Laffer focusing his work on the rich was the cheapest and most plain sell-out on the academic history.
