The people who make these things laugh at you and everything you do and say.

It seems there is over reliance on the jobs and productivity centered around the activity of a handful of companies.There are 8B people in the world, but only a handful of countries with good rule of law, good universities, and businesses which support local productivity; some countries maintain low unemployment because of immigration to a handful of productivity centers.Better than cramming...

> Now they have money and power and use both in pretty obscene ways, like starving children in Africa to death by yanking the aid that was keeping them alive away.

It’s because there’s lot of corruption in places receiving aid, look it up. Fixing problems is not as simple as giving someone money, there needs to be lots of accountability, which is often missing. There are fake NGOs and non-profits which essentially treat these foreign aid monies as slush funds. It makes sense to tighten the purse strings for now while the national debt crisis is looming large. It would also be great if other high GDP nations would contribute to this kind of development.

The tweet is reasonable. People who object to something reasonable don’t make any sense. The political extremism needs to go away for society to be healthy.
