I grew up in an America that spent a lot
to explain what it was willing to do for
a Republic and ideals. The people who will
quietly give a traitor an illegal 3rd term
to avoid a more upsetting crises that
could either save the Republic or just
make it clearer it is over are
apparently what the US actually is.
This sounds similar to holding up Ghandi as
proof that violent rebellion is not
necessary. Treating these incidents as proof
about the current world presumes people in power
lack the agency to examine history like
the rest of us.
This is a nonsensical reform. Every check and balance is itself
a risk, nonetheless one can not build a safe Republic by removing
them.
The US thinks it is the check for Europe but this offers
no check for the leader of a superpower such as the US.
(It's apparently a flaggable offense to believe
a legitimate republic is measured by making sense
even if making sense goes against Anglo Saxon
sensibilities since Cromwell.. I guess we can
call time of death on the city on a hill.)
True though there is the theory that it was unnecessary
for the immune system to regulate itself in some ways
because we were full of parasites.
They will probably (first) have to bounce off freedom.ccTLD
for any ccTLD but .us.
Do sardines cause sharks or do sharks cause sardines? In what
sense is the preference for the theory that sardines growth causes
shark population growth a lump of labor fallacy?
This data supports my viewpoint just as well. Older workers are taking
the lower effort higher reward jobs that Americans are healthy enough and happy enough to do. If we go by salaries a bunch of CEOs retiring would be
a massive blow to salaries and propping up the US economy. CEO
are paid by what the best CEO is worth as no one wants to believe they
hire dud CEOs.
There's no explanation to me as to why this years attrition from the labor
force is much more meaningful than any other years, but there is a
notable loss instead of gain of millions of workers willing and
able to do any job instead of any convenient job.
I don't really think retiring boomers play the same role
in the economy. I think a ~3 million immigrant gap
is pretty significant:
https://theworlddata.com/net-migration-statistics-in-us/because the jobs they do enable a lot of BS jobs, go
unfilled and actually need to be filled to create other
job growth while someone in the labor market for a long
time is likely in a comfortable job that will be
realized to be unnecessary and already replaced by
disruption from newer lower pay equivalents.
(Also GDP is in USD which means it is down 30% in many senses.)
