The U.K. has the same problem. Remove London from the equation and the U.K. is poorer than the poorest US state. And like the EU there’s very little investment from London out to the regions This leads to increased demand for housing in Lo

401k is a massive Ponzi scheme where people working today hope that people in the future will value their work. Imagine a world where you had 15 billionaires and 5 people working. How much are are. Those billions worth when they are fightin

They aren’t entitled to their assets. They only have worth because of civilisation. How well do you think bill gates would survive in a mad max utopia that Randians fantasize about?

On the other hand perhaps the keys to that 70B have been lost, in which case bitcoin has deflated even more than expected.

How much of that would be spent directly on wages for people working for eh US military and how much sent to external firms? On the other hand how much is sent to external firms where most of their expenditure is in the US and thus comes ba

What goes up accumulates and is effectively removed from circulation, allowing money to be printed at a minion level while still struggling to avoid deflation.

My understanding in America is that FM is full of pirate transmissions blocking real channels and thus reducing usefulness of FM for the majority. American culture leans “against the feds”, it really is wackamole trying to shut them down, o

Prices in America are wired. Bought a beer yesterday waiting for the train. Claimed it was $7, actual price $7.62 (which Amex coincidently converted to exactly £6.00) If I’d paid in cash I’d have to pay with at least a 2 cent coin (and like

Trademarks help the user. If I buy a can of brown sludge I want to know it’s sold by the Coca Cola company. If anyone could sell their stuff as “coca cola” that would harm me, the consumer, as it takes information away from me.
