Neither of those comments are inaccurate. It's deeply unhelpful to try and discuss something as complicated as slavery if you insist on whitewashing it as a simple, binary case of good and bad.

Bangladesh has twice the GDP and 3x the growth. How long do you expect Portugal to be relevant?

That's been happening since Photoshop. Describing this as some apocalyptic event is absurd.

Agreed, but Singapore has only 5 million people which limits their potential in that regard.

No good VC investment looked like a "smart riks" to normies when it happened.

Any time European economic failings are brought up it's always the same thing. "Well at least no school shootings!" Great, Singapore has less school shootings and homeless people than anywhere in Europe by a country mile and

A 200B economy growing 2% is the future of the EU? Yes that is the point I am making.

No, ECONOMIC regulation was the point discussed. That has zilch to do with something like gun control.

My suspicion is it's the personalization. Most people have things like 'memory' on, and as the models increasingly personalize towards you, that personalization is hurting quality rather than helping it. Which is why the base

Nobody is claiming the US has less mass shootings. It's just pointless whataboutism in a conversation (economic strategy) that has nothing to do with it.

Rights and protections that have benefited heavily from an economy built on the alliance with the US. If it weren't for American help and trade post-WW2, Europe would be a Belarusian backwater and is fast heading back in that direction

And what's the excuse for Euro's GDP being equal to the US in 2007, and now being over $10T less?
82.
by bobxmax 1y ago
Because Europeans don't take smart risks. Because they over regulate. It's fascinating watching people circle back to this answer. Regulation and taxation reduces incentives. Lower incentives, means lower risk-taking. The fact thi

How are either of those sentences "racist"?

So you can't give me a single racist statement he made.

Obama was not his opposition, and that was not his campaign.

Of course, I didn't claim that the republicans aren't now doing everything they claimed to revolt against but worse. As it turns out "free speech" absolutism only applies to things that pwn the libz.

Don't just send me a random dump wiki dump. Give me actual racist things he said in 2016.
