The winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature writes like this and you’re worried about AI generated text?

France followed all of Krugman's recommendations: Big government spending, high taxes, migration. Now...
Nobel winner Krugman says France may have become 'too big to save' and 'unsustainable fiscal path'.

That was only when they were a sole trader. Then they signed a joint venture agreement and the business expanded hugely.

When the SR-71 feels threatened, it will perform a “deimatic display” in which it spreads out its frill, making it appear larger to its natural predators, such as the Air Force Budgetary Committee.
NASA is reaching out to former SR-71 Blackbird staff to restart the program 👀

The reason this is so toxic is that people are often willing to forgive politicians who love their country, mean well, but get it wrong, even badly wrong. People who obviously hate their country do not have the benefit of the doubt; bad decisions seem deliberate.

Not so bizarre.
Vietnamese farmers & villagers repurposed jet “drop tanks” they found in their fields into boats. The tanks were snapped together & could be easily taken apart. With a few modifications, they made pretty good river boats.

This is absurd. Britain’s WWII generation governed so poorly they had to go cap in hand to the IMF for a bailout like some kind of third world banana republic.

The pound has lost ~40% of its purchasing power since 2020 (partly due to Covid money printing), so the number of UK millionaires “should” have increased to reflect the debasement and the increased money in circulation.
But the number of millionaires has actually declined by ~60% since 2021.
The wealth destruction taking place in this country is staggering.
The US is growing its number of millionaires at 1,200 per day meanwhile and over 1.6 million since 2020.

The U.S is noticeably richer than Europe in a way that’s not really contestable, the cars & the houses and so on, we’re all familiar. But being here this time nothing has brought it home more than seeing the TV advert of a wealth management company for “middle class millionaires”

Amazingly it is not a joke that Ukraine’s number of disabled claimants has increased by less than Britain’s in the period since the Ukraine War began.

A civilisation can be transformed once just 5% of its population adopts a new idea.
It starts with one lateral thinker. The linear majority rejects it with hostility. Other laterals adopt it quietly. Momentum builds.
At 5% there is a quantum shift. The new idea becomes reality almost overnight.
War and crisis force this process. The universe always wins.
Part 5 of 7. Tomorrow: the deep historical roots of the battle between democracy and autocracy.

Tax in the UK is the highest it’s been since 1945. That’s well understood – but another trend has been largely missed: the number of taxes in the UK is at its highest since the end of the Napoleonic Wars.
