Depending on your version of hope.
Way too many good movies to have a single best, but that one is one of my favorites certainly. If I recommend it to someone I avoid any spoiling of the twist because it was so great when it happened. It might be obvious before that point for some, it came from left field for me.
And while I heard the sequel wasn't all that great, I felt that even if a sequel could be good it was totally unneeded. It'd be like trying to make a second Highlander movie, if one could even imagine that.
IBM is how he got into the PC infrastructure via licensing. He saw what the execs didn't, that anyone could build hardware but what ran on it controlled the world. And I don't know how true it is, but my understanding is that Gates was so shrewd he bet on getting that agreement before he even had the software in hand. Which if true says even more about the IBM execs who agreed to something sight unseen.
Later Geordi shows him that authority when ejecting the warp core before Will gives the actual order to set off the Riker Maneuver.
Some music doesn't have to be deep to be good. I never got the impression people in the pit at a AC/DC concert were analyzing the lyrics.
Maybe COP29.
The Time Traveler's Wife is an interesting twist on things, including free will. I haven't seen the series version.
I.e, how long ago? Probably about the time the 1.5 target number was being introduced, and that may be optimistic.
Definitely a debatable subject, but if there was a line of billionaire to start taking away "earned" income, she wouldn't be at the front. Plenty of others that are far less "worthy", depending on how the debate of worth goes.
If it was up to insurance companies, they'd classify "being born" as a pre-existing condition. That parameter is just there to protect their assets from the "greedy" sick people who file claims, and they'll push that line of what is and isn't covered as far back as they can. Don't give them the line to move.
I agree with the comments here, but one thing I think it being missed is how this is a campaign fallacy built on a lie to install fear against "The Immigrant". Last time this whole thing about millions of illegals crossing the border was brought up I seem to recall it pointed out that most illegal citizens aren't the stereotype "poors" that are painted in this rhetoric, but are coming via plane and just aren't documented legally.
