    Mybenefitwallet

    Posted: 05 Oct 2018 12:51 AM PDT

    My story is a simple one My benefit wallet flexible spending account Is not worth using it is a burden provided by my employer. Hours of using the web site to be denied payment are not worth the service! It all started last year when I made a simple mistake. I used my flex account to purchase zoom tooth whitening paste, a 30$ mistake. It took me 2 months to pay these MF's back and to get my account turned back on after I paid the 30$. Lucky for me it was April. I had 1000$ in my account this year and 8 months to spend my money plenty of time. Nope 4 months later and this petty company nailed me for a filling 61 dollars copay. Denied and shut of my account again in October. 2 times in one year and 842$ to go! The reason I was told by Tanisha the rude , who was my customer service rep is... you need to provide explanation of insurance Benefit. This meaning what did my insurance cover. I sent a copy of my bill and it was not good enough for Tanisha the rude. 281$ for a tooth filling, told her 90% is covered by my insurance, 35$ copay 10% my cost for a grand total of 61$. Not good enough for her and she said pay this. Nope these monsters want my money and I am not going to let that happen! Long of the short is my dentist uses the mail to do its business so I have to wait a month to get a Explanation of Benefits that Tanisha the rude needs to turn my account back on. Modern day thieves Mybenefitswallet is, do not use the flexible spending account if provided by your employer. Never ever it is a rip off. Tanisha the rude does not want to work and now she holding my 842$ hostage till I send a Explanation of Insurance Benefit!

    Manchurian Motherboards: Could Chinese Industrial Espionage Could Backfire on Everybody?

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 11:52 PM PDT

    On October 4th 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek released a bombshell story on large scale industrial espionage committed by the Chinese security services that has impacted Amazon, Apple and 30 other major corporations. The company at the center of this espionage is SuperMicro, a San Jose based contract electronics manufacturer. SuperMicro is a leading producer of motherboards, and other electronics products. Like many other contractors, SuperMicro subcontracts work to smaller companies when the load of work is to high. The Chinese government has been able to bully and cajole these small subcontractors into allowing the Chinese government to surreptitiously insert microchips the size of a grain of rice that can give the Chinese government access to American national defense and trade secrets. The Chinese government, Amazon and Apple have vehemently denied the accusations, in language that leaves little ambiguity or wriggle room suggesting that Amazon and Apple genuinely believe the story is inaccurate. If these accusations prove true, this would be the largest and most sophisticated cyber attack by China.

    The cyberattack needs to be considered in the context of rising trade tensions between the US and China. The US has steadily raised tariffs against China, including $200 billion in tariffs in September of 2018 alone. So far, the Trump administration has arbitrarily applying tariffs to allies and enemies alike. However, there are signs that the US government has a much more focused anti-China approach. For example, the USMCA includes a host of provisions that are squarely aimed at China the most important of which is a provision that any member of the USMCA can withdraw if another USMCA member makes a trade agreement with a non-market economy. The Trump administration has long supported revoking China's status as a market economy, and effectively blocks USMCA nations from signing trade agreements with China without American consent. The USMCA is expected to be just the first step in coalescing according Larry Kudlow "a Trade Coalition of the Willing".

    The Chinese economy has so far been able to shrug off the impacts of the US trade war. GDP growth is expected to be 6.8% in 2018, and Chinese exports have grown by more than 10% for five consecutive months (although this may be because of exporters rushing to expedite orders before tariffs take effect). However, these positive numbers mask real weaknesses in the Chinese export machine. Chinese electronics exports global market share soared from 5.9% to 25.8%. However, since 2015, China has actually losing market share against global competitors. Rising wages has seen low cost production move from China to countries such as Bangladesh and Cambodia. Chinese attitudes towards intellectual property has led manufacturers to move facilities to Mexico and Eastern European countries. It is likely rising tariffs will see taiff global value chains shift to countries such as Vietnam, where electronics exports have increased from $4 billion to $107 billion. Increasing Chinese government sponsored espionage is part of a greater move towards interventionism in markets. Access to global markets and strong ties to foreign invested firms has sparked massive growth and innovation by Chinese firms. Economic adventurism such as this type of industrial espionage puts these ties at risk, and does far more harm than short term good.

    Any (especially legal) advice for a complete newbie?

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 08:57 AM PDT

    My brother and I are interested in starting up a business together. It would be a sort of tour guide/excursion type thing, aimed both at tourists at locals around where we live in Colorado. He is very outdoorsy, and has been a park ranger at a few different parks. He is very qualified on that front. I have run a website before, so I am qualified on the marketing/web presence front. Unfortunately neither of us are qualified on the legal front, or the financial. Neither of us have a lot of money for start up costs or monthly costs until (if) the business begins to make money.

    We're hoping to do things like fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, snow shoeing, tours of ghost towns, metal detecting, prospecting, and hopefully many more. We won't have a business front, as we will be doing logistical work from our homes, and the actually work out in nature. But we would be using one or both of our cars to transport people and equipment. From what I've seen, this could cost us upwards of $1000 a month, which we cannot afford. I'm also unsure if filing as a general partnership or an LLC is best.

    Ultimately what it comes down to is we could easily put a post on craigslist and start a Facebook page and do it all under the radar. But the second some idiot casts and gets a fishing hook to the face, we get screwed. So we'd like to make sure we keep things legal. But we're also hoping to start low key since we both have full time jobs and not much savings.

    What legal steps to we HAVE to take at this point, which are a good idea, and which can we wait on? Plus any other advice would be wonderful. Thank you SO much!
