In my understanding, the role of banking is to take on the intrinsic risk when doing money allocation. 1. The central banks control supply (by controlling their interest rates) 2. The banks allocate resources (lending out with a risk premiu

So, one of the main points about going nuclear is that the externalities are more limited and contained than existing solutions. We already release radioactive waste from coal based power plants (plus all the other bi-products from the as

I am not advocating this system at all, merely pointing out that in Denmark there are protections for employees and a requirement for the employer to pay.

> you need to work for a different type of company This is the correct interpretation. There is a max time of 6 months for non-compete (and non-solicit). So in practice this is never an issue – you just wait out your 6 months.

I am not entirely sure if you juxtapose the legal framework for Danish non-competes and garden leave. But assuming you do: In Denmark you are formally not employed, and you are free (actually obligated) to look for other job opportunities.

Well, if I "realistically need both" it is not a false dichotomy. Then it is just impractical. I also don't present a DI-chotomy, I present two sides of potentially a lot of sides. I also don't present the sides as being

Your insurance company is re-insured. Reinsurance is a business in its own. So your insurer will be able to meet their obligations. If not, then it is so bad that it is societal. And then we all have an interest in having it resolved no mat
