As far as the legality goes I would assume LinkedIn gets to decide. It's a 3rd party service, I haven't read their TOS but I'm assuming they own everything and merely permit users to use their service. Sure there are terms but legal ownersh

My employer has a non-compete clause. It's not specific to the industry, I'm permitted to leave and work in the field. What I'm not permitted to do within the two year term is work with the same clients. I can keep my linked in Rolodex but

What's wrong with "the world" and what's wrong with working for "the government" are two different things.

I agree with you. I stopped reading at "almost without exception, economists since Adam Smith have viewed economic systems as being in balance or equilibrium, and as having a natural tendency to return there after any disturbance. In this v

Low blow. Recommending that I don't sell food to the poor for "profit" is the same difference. I have to feed my family too and without making a profit I have no time to spend feeding the poor, so I don't. The assumption of the free market

Sorry but if you're hungry the rational thing to do is to acquire food. If you're sick the rational thing to do is to assess your options for immediate help. I use the word immediate here intentionally. You're referring to difference in rat
