Re: Implanting Bill Gates's Micro-chips In Brains For Over 20 Years!

Have I told you lately how much I love this guy's weekly summations of Fed court opinions - https://reason.com/volokh/2021/10/01...decisions-126/ ? An example -

Douglas Adams' fictional detective Dirk Gently believed in the "fundamental interconnectedness of all things." So he would have loved this lawsuit by the City of Oakland, Calif. against Wells Fargo, alleging that its discriminatory lending practices caused higher default rates, which in turn triggered higher foreclosure rates, which in turn drove down the assessed value of properties, which in turn led to reduced property-tax revenue and increased municipal expenditures. At the very least, he probably would have liked it more than the en banc Ninth Circuit, which takes a less holistic view of proximate causation.
