That's great in a single-variable universe, but in ours unfortunately there are a million other "it's (only) $0.5 per person" things. It's like letting the public choose what students have to learn - "but this

1) Risk isn't black/white but a continuum. 2) Banks ARE in the business of risk, very much so. What are you talking about??? They make risky investments all the time! They just prefer 200 million over 100k because they've bec

I refer back to what I wrote. You miss the point. There is no black/white in what is necessary and unnecessary or even nefarious "data cleaning". You just use the same fuzzy undefinable words again, but you did not make it an

There is quite a bit of leeway when you have real world data. You have to clean it. You can always find some justification. This is not neatly black/white at all. Similar in all other fields from accounting to law. I think it's

Yeah, but that's the problem of the next CEO and not this one, and all the smart investors want to take anything they can get now and simply jump ship when they see something dark on the horizon. The only ones screwed are those with no

The aging population is countered by powerful forces: - movement into few urban mega-centers (you can't even say "into cities" because there are plenty of cities with little or even negativ population gain) - immigration (e.g
