Re: How to Remove Rust From Stainless Steel

The chrome and other things in stainless slow down the rusting, but looking at it through the lens of chemistry---all steel can rust if oxygen is present under the right conditions. It is simply a chemical reaction.

Modern law in court isn't necessarily any better than what it was 100 years ago. If we get enough originalists on the Supreme Court, it could change for the better. Still, when crooks know that there will be justice instead of just going through a court, crime goes down.
