If it didn’t help other global powers, i.e. Russia, I’d say this is a reason to have New England be it’s own country.

He absolutely is making the future less grim. The industry news I read for my work in the energy industry is full of progress in environmental regulation. It’s a fight vs Republicans and Biden is really making progress.
I am an accountant and prepare financial reports.
Not in our current tax bracket world.
So it is a replacement for Western Union. Not a bad thing if it’s helping people transfer money without a middle man taking too much.
The tribute to oil in front of the state capitol was a nice touch to the article.
I think the real take away is that there are so many people willing to speak out against Boeing’s procedures that odds are some are going to die before the conclusion of this investigation.
Somebody that fits this description (excluding ACAB) won the Presidency. Self promoting and selfish desires. The “greed is good” era has continued pushing a selfish culture over community driven goals. This is especially true in the large media organizations and social media. Media makes decisions for profits and selfish goals over community engagement, education, and cohesiveness.
But, there are many counter examples in the actual community. The community driven people just make less noise online. I volunteer with college kids and the generosity and desire for community building is really impressive. I would not find this online but in real life it is very evident. But no one makes money selling things to people who care about others more than themselves. So advertising and social media cater to the selfish side of people so that is what we see more often.
There were massive protests. We just haven’t finished the job of restructuring police in America. Once that happens the history books will acknowledge how far and wide protests were. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Floyd_protests
A lesson learned from Animal Farm babyyyyyy
Whether VR works for Meta or not, they have invested in technology and built careers for employees. This is why we should have corporate taxes. I’d rather see corporations keep employees and advance technology instead of giving dividends to the wealthiest people in the world. While the product might not work out, I bet there are many people who worked on it that will take those skills to new projects.
I can’t watch much of his content because it is just like any other grind culture, serial entrepreneur angle. He was running a company, I think its a marketing consulting firm or something like that. He stepped away from the business which can be run by other people but he felt he could’ve grown it more if he stayed active. I think he’s basically up the ladder of a entrepreneur pyramid scheme.
And I agree with your quality of life comment. It is a shame that he stays so committed to serial entrepreneurship as an overall positive thing for everybody. He said one person was inspired by his optimism and work that the viewer was inspired to work on a business and it saved his life. So one person was helped by this project and the millionaire was very touched. I would have hoped saw that quality time with family is more important regardless of your wealth. And he could’ve also realized that people are generous by nature and that we should take care of each other more than trying to accumulate wealth and grow a business with no motivation outside of the accumulation of wealth.
I don’t think they claimed they were greedy because they were Indian. I think it is more of a question on why the Indian people who have been successful in tech are implementing the profit motive policies and what overlapping culture we share with India that would lead people to that capitalistic goal of profits over product. Isn’t that something worth exploring? I think it already has led to an educational discussion where one commentor mentioned the history of worker actions in India.
I’m watching this guys youtube video explaining his side and his rebuttal is actually very simple. In his expirement, he did not say anything about being homeless and he never said that you can earn a million dollars in one year. His goal was to have a template showing how to build a business. I still think he didn’t learn anything. He is just a super entrepreneurial guy who thinks that he is helping people by encouraging them to start a business and that grind culture can give you a better life. He seems to not want to look above his own place in our system and encourage any substantive change in the social safety net of the US. I’m glad he realized that being a good son, when his dad is dying of cancer, is more important than being a hustler. But he doesn’t seem to have internalized the idea that being a good human is more important than being a hustler on a normal day.
Yes. We should work on raising everyones standard of living instead of thinking only millionaires get these benefits. The goal should not be for everyone to havea million dollars. The individualistic premise that he uses is flawed from the beginning.
Companies catering to the wealthy is already happening. The richest man in the world, Bernard Arnault, sells luxury goods. It used to be that selling products to the most amount of people was better, Ford, oil barrons, even Wal-Mart. Now money is made selling products to the wealthy. The growth in inequality of the last 50 years shows up in many ways today. Housing sizes are larger because builders need to sell to the wealthy instead of to the masses where margins on modest sized homes are smaller or non-existent.
China needs to move away from coal. This would be a huge change in global emissions.
Biden started the momentum for capping late fees over a year ago. He mentioned it in his State of the Union address. This is just how government works. I don’t think having some progress made in March of an election year after initiating desire to make progress over a year ago is scaps on the floor. It is competent governing.
There are a lot of big things that would be celebrated if our media covered it differently and if Biden was as self-aggrandizing as Trump.
But the little things are really what make me want to vote for Biden again. This is competent governing. In my field, I’ve seen how the little things lead to big things. Like the approval of off shore wind farms that were stalled under Trump are now approved and constructed leading to the first utility scale offshore wind farm in the US. A huge accomplishment from one little approval.
For more context. This was a Oceanis 393. so about $100k boat. And it was in the Strait of Gibralter. Not the poorest area of the world.
