Read a random definition: personal evidence

A quick definition of Uniform Prudent Investor Act:

The Uniform Prudent Investor Act (UPIA) is a set of rules created by the Uniform Law Commission to guide trustees in managing trust property. The UPIA covers important factors such as risk and return, the needs of beneficiaries, inflation, economic conditions, taxes, liquidity, income, and capital preservation. Many states in the United States have adopted the UPIA as a standard for trustees to follow.

A more thorough explanation:

The Uniform Prudent Investor Act (UPIA) is a set of standard rules created by the Uniform Law Commission (ULC) in 1994. These rules are recommended for enactment in all states and provide guidelines for trustees when investing trust property. The UPIA takes into account various factors such as risk and return, needs of beneficiaries, inflation or deflation, general economic conditions, potential tax consequences, liquidity, income, and preservation of capital.

For example, if a trustee is managing a trust fund for a minor child, they must consider the child's future needs and the potential impact of inflation on the fund's value. The trustee must also balance the need for income with the preservation of capital to ensure that the fund lasts for the child's lifetime.

As of October 2021, 43 states and the District of Columbia have enacted the UPIA, including California, Texas, and New York.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
