@NickHudsonCT @pretentiouswhat @RnaudBertrand Nick is right the fault lies with the monopolists accruing an ever greater proportion of profits.

Engineer thinks he can wire success. Reading is after the fact. You either have it or you don’t. No amount of reading will ever change that. It’s like expecting consciousness to spontaneously arrive in a computer….oh hand on

The side effect is the intention
Keir Starmer just finished praising India’s digital ID system as a “model for the future.” Days later, reports explode claiming hackers have stolen the entire Aadhaar database — 815 million people’s personal and financial data, now reportedly for sale online. This is the

The smoking ban was the tipping point in the precipitous decline of the United Kingdom
🚭 Should countries ban tobacco use for everyone? Well, the Maldives just did. The nation banned tobacco for everyone born after 2007. The Maldives has officially become the first country in the world to enforce a generational tobacco ban, making it illegal for anyone born on

Very accurate PE stands for Ponzi Debt None of them know anything

A dark day for the country
The exit tax has been confirmed and is happening. 🤦♂️ Multiple credible sources say @TorstenBell is driving it with Minouche in support. Torsten... I get it. We just saw Nik from Revolut move to Dubai and pay zero capital gains tax. This looks like a simple solution. It's not.
