It's not about where it's manufactured as much as it is about who wanted it manufactured. If it's from a company that cares about its brand image like Anker, then you're probably going to get a good product

I will never forget that clip during the Obama vs. McCain race where a woman says Obama can't be trusted because "he's an arab"

The merger is still something that I'm 50/50 on because it made T-Mobile's service so much more reliable, and iirc Sprint was genuinely struggling.

To add onto what other commenters said:

  1. It isn't legally mandated, only customary
  2. If it was mandatory, such a mandate would probably be illegal
  3. Plenty of teachers and school officials (but not most) will be pissed/will punish you if you don't do the pledge.

I have concerns about your statement that achieving herd immunity is worthless when failing to reach the threshold. Is there not a distinction between herd immunity within a household or school and herd immunity within a city or state or country? Shouldn't the "population" be in the context of communities with close and frequent interactions?
