  • I understand that you don't deliberately mean to be racist but...

    How are you supposed to trust the Korean sitting in the metro writing some obscure script in their obscure app..?

    How about the Taiwanese who writes and speaks Chinese, how do you trust them?

    In the end people judge by appearance, which is ahem racism.

    I think this is the job for the immigration agency to approve their visa, and anyways there are already some limitations on people from certain countries to travel abroad, please don't start to encourage people to lynch certain people based on their appearance...

  • I understand your point. It's just easy to make it economic as an example, productivity can go to hell. Life satisfaction and life expectancy by themselves should be a big enough motivation to support public welfare. It's just that the arguments against are usually rooted in economic motivations, e.g. inefficiency of the tax money management.

  • There could be a misunderstanding here, I meant public welfare spending, not personal spending.

    Countries who spend more on public welfare would get more people being productive rather than staying home sick. Higher life expectancy and higher life satisfaction is also expected.

  • I'm terrible at them. Baked a flat pancake that was supposed to be bread. Fumbling on the guitar. Haven't drawn anything in the past 3 years. Electrical projects on hold.

    I think I have to focus a little bit more 😅

  • I have a friend who runs a plant to make stamped steel parts for the auto industry, based in Canada. He's so ready to increase the prices to offset the tariffs for US customers. The customers already invested big bucks for the tool development and they can't just source the parts somewhere else. They'll have no other choice than paying the tariff price increase. If Trump supporters think that the tariff can magically move productions local...well, I'm being presumptuous by assuming Trump supporters think.

  • Well, you could. But imagine after all the conflict, would Russia offer a good deal? Who'd pay for the cost increase? And what else could they ask in return, more raw material for nuclear weapons, so that in 15 years they can go another round with an even better odds?
