Yeah the phrase needs to be rent-seeking or landlordism not gentrification. Non-productive costs are a leech on society.

Giving a person a tin of beans which they will eat that day, instead of a fair wage and an affordable home does not make them any richer. It's frustrating to constantly go over basic facts with fools who live in a bubble. This is a sys

Notice I said 'can't afford to' which your comment appears to support. I am being pedantic because there is an important distinction. If people can't spend money on feeding their own children they are certainly not spend

Do you and people you know own assets? Not accusatory - it's just there's a lot of working class people who can't afford to feed their kids. It's about the cost of housing / basic necessities sucking up money from t

Lets say you have enough spare time and energy to make a jig, a trolley, an improved tool of some kind that helps you hang siding. For the time you spend making it you are behind on your general average siding panels per day. Once you finis

Education is a cog/mandarin factory in most countries. Whizzkids will educate themselves, what's needed is giving people idle time in order to pursue things. Most influential thinkers found themselves with this in some fashion. Ho

It is strange that we stop at scalars for algebra in most languages. Odin’s approach is almost more frustrating, allowing for quaternion types, but not clifford algebra which can elegantly describe them and much more(though i know it’s a co

You need to think of it as a system of feedback loops. If you don't stem the input of the cycle of drug abuse by investing a little, your problem gets worse. It seems people take a moral or 'fairness' based attitude to these

The supply and demand curve doesn't always cross with imperfect information. A lot of free market presuppositions fail actually. This is accepted by many contemporary economists. Samuel Bowles on Mindscape podcast was an interesting hi

This attitude is why we have adware and electron apps everywhere - though the pricing model could be tweaked a little. Unreal engine gets it right

I think basic stats and critical thinking skills, even just looking at the scientists current and former funding is enough to spot the BS. Though given the state of the world I guess that's asking too much.
