The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Question : when you say "non us " to you mean non resident, or non citizen ?"

Could have a couple meanings.

"non us" could mean non-US (with resident or citizen depending upon an unstated context.

Non-US *citizen* (when outside the US) has a variable set of assumptions (which are unknown --employment? By a business/govt/self-employed?).

Non-US *citizen* (when in the US) has a different set of assumptions, but many are known if working (or not)--and, if working, for a business/govt/self-employed?).

Different status (and range of variables) for each situation.
