Easy to say this from a privileged position, less so when it's your vacations or work travel on the chopping block. Free movement for me, but not for thee. Wouldn't want all those unwashed masses ruining your perfect vacation.

You don't even have to go this far, with just a little planning you can get your entire degree for the cost of a decent car. Tuition for an in-state public college is ~$10k per year. Private colleges and out of state are ~$25k. Communi

Honestly I think those categories apply to most jobs. Just look at all the posts on here about 10x and 100x developers. Some people are amazing at their jobs, some are scammers/incompetent/full of BS, most are in the middle.

That is an incredibly misleading definition, to the point the term loses all meaning. It would be more honest to say "by not accounting for all negative externalities".

I don't know if it is a counterargument, you can fill your countryside with trees while also burning a mountain of coal.

1) Vast amounts of regulation. 2) Liability. 3) Special interests (not just pharma and insurance, hospitals, doctors, nurses as well). 4) Supply constraints from the above listed reasons. 5) People who go to ER instead of primary or urgent

Shipping them like that would probably make it more expensive, lots of wasted space and added weight.

The Allies were not immune to this either, especially the Soviets (NKVD vs military). In the democratic countries it was more on the individual level, with certain powerful people fighting to get their way (i.e. MacArthur).

Interesting, I think this might actually be better than calendar year. In video games there's a very quick zeitgeist, but with board games it's much slower. So this is less "games released in 2019" as "games you can

Because this will likely open the floodgates. If sugar is an addiction, then maybe all food is an addiction, and from there lots of normal behavior can be considered an addiction so the term becomes meaningless. I agree that sugar and food

Starching was truly idiotic, it turns your uniform in to kindling, makes it less breathable, and prevents it from absorbing bug repellents. Completely defeated the purpose of having a utility uniform, looking good is what the service unifor

While I agree with the main thrust of your point, there have always been boom and bust cycles in nature with no humans involved. Good years lead to overbreeding which leads to food shortages which leads to famine. Animals are capable of ove

I don't think it's a bad thing for a company to try out new products and services to see what sticks, then kill off ones that aren't working, the alternative is to stagnate and slowly die out. It does sting as a consumer when
