"Stablegains makes earning with DeFi simple and safe for consumers and businesses alike."
Crypto is a cesspool. Ethical businesses shouldn't be promoting it, particularly as "simple and safe".
Or maybe there's a better solution, but at least let's agree on the transparency problem.
1) Your argument is baseless...
Because (Fact)
a) We (the taxpayers) were compelled to bail GS out to the tune of 12 billion dollars to prevent a catastrophic worldwide economic collapse.
b) GS has access to huge amounts of credit at zero percent interest from the Fed.
Conclusion
1) We the people don't require evidence of a "crime" to take further action to protect our interests going forward.
This is the wrong economic (and political) climate for this kind of BS.
My loss...
Here's an idea. A tax on any product or service which is covered under a patent. The tax would be placed in government trust. If a patent is successfully invalidated by later litigation, then the court could award the successful litigant all or some portion of the collected taxes.
When the patent expires, the collected taxes is transferred to the Patent Office.
The intention is to increase funding for patent deliberation up front, and to create incentive for awarding enforceable patents.
You can't infer from the study that non-hypertensive people have anything to gain from restricting their salt intake, or that hypertensive people would benefit from anything but a draconian salt reduction diet.
If you want to pay attention to salt in your diet, I would recommend getting more potassium, preferably from fresh vegetables.
Edit - And regarding enforcement, I would just encourage stiff penalties. An organization found guilty of multiple instances of finance fraud could be charged with RICO and it's leaders thrown in jail. So much for enforcement.
