Trickle down economics only work for the non-wealthy. If you give a 1000$ to a poor person, they would ideally buy locally making the money go around the community.
However, we are so deep in late stage capitalism that mega corpos have their claws in everything that every dollar given to them is a dollar that doesn’t go back into the economy
If the apartment/house layout is good for the roomba, it is a great tool. It doesn’t replace vacuuming and floor washing, but it does reduce the dirtness on the floor.
Private healthcare isn’t though. You have to pay.
Your link only talks about the down payment on a house, not who owns what.
In 2020, for 5 provinces in Canada, more than 1/5 of the housing was owned by investors. So people definitely have to compete against investors.
It’s also market manipulation.
They won’t do anything that they think won’t benefit them.
Trump is increasingly senile/crazy and his usefulness has run its course for them. Time to rat out and claim they were against him and start the cycle again.
Not OP but I can share my journey through my career.
Depends on where you are in the world and your work ethic.
I was a terrible student with a hard time understanding harder maths (due to my schooling, but that is something specific to my region), and I was still able to graduate with a 3/4.3 score. It was a lot of hard work that I wasn’t prepared to do due to my work ethic. I had to learn to be at least decent fast and the first year was brutal.
My experience is that university is a lot harder than the work after university. But the corporate world can be soul crushing. In big corpos, you usually do the same part of a process where as during university, you do a lot of interesting and varied stuff.
My electrical engineering program was generalist with each semester being a different domain of electrical engineering and me being interesting in embedded electronics. So doing a semester of power transmission lines was brutal because I wasn’t that organised and didn’t like the courses.
Society tend to romanticize engineering, but there is a lot of busywork and project management and you get caught in administrative bullshit just like any other job (ask a software engineer thoughts on stand-ups and agile and be ready to hear horror stories).
But, if you really like engineering, there are those moments of pure engineering that makes you forget all the bullshit around and make the career worthwhile.
So life rambling aside, engineering is a worthwhile career. It is not an easy path, but the work is manageable though sometime overwhelming. Treat university like a 9-5 job with some overtime and you’ll do fine.
I didn’t have to worry about the financial side of things because I live a place where school is cheap and student financial aid is plentiful. So keep that in mind when making your decision because I cannot comment on that part.
When I have to use a Windows machine for whatever reason, the first thing I do is to install Chocolatey so that I can have a decent package manager.
If the US justice system was remotely functioning, Trump and many of his admin would be rotting in jail right now and we wouldn’t have come this far in the fascist state.
The courts have pushed half a funding of the SNAP?! What a victory for all the Americans! Hurray! How about shutting that shit down completely and hand the Trump admin its ass like it ought to?
Imagine celebrating what is going on right now with the SNAP funding as a win?
So yeah, the judges are chicken shit and they’ve failed the people.
How fucking dense do you have to be. I answer your questions, somehow I moved the goal post?
The Trump admin is literally kidnapping people in the street and somehow the justices are doing fine work? Like, how is this even a start for a discussion here? How is that not shut the fuck down and Trump and his fucking croonies not in jail? Because the judges are fuckwits.
The US justice system is dead, the US is fully a fascist country now and we are all worst for it.
How many people were deported in countries they aren’t even from without a due process?
ICE is literally kidnapping in broad daylight and are emboldened to ignore the right to a due process.
The SNAP benefits are paid in spite of the court orders. The USDA is defying Trump’s order. The Court of Appeals decision was paused late last night (Friday) by Justice Ketajni Brown Jackson until the first circuit of appeals issue a judgement on the matter.
In your first example, it is the USDA defying Trump’s order. Ketanji Brown Jackson just paused the order to pay full SNAP benefits until the appeal on the first circuit not even a day after the Court of Appeals maintained that SNAP benefits had to be paid in full even with the shutdown in place.
In your second example, it isn’t even a court order, it’s just Elon Musk bootlickers realising that he did a lot of shit, rehiring federal workers so that the government can somewhat function.
Is he wrong? Courts have done chicken shit judgements and the judgements aren’t enforced.
Vance is a dunce, but Trump’s admin has thrown wild shit to the wall that sticked and here we are.
They aren’t stupid, they are gambling and they toss their weight to stack the bet in their favor long enough so that they can cash out and not be left with the bag when it crashes.
Every recession, richs get richer and we get poorer.
No we shouldn’t. Anyone can create an instance and scrape whatever data.
Assume that all the posts and comment you make are public and linked to your real identity and don’t say things you wouldn’t say in person.
It’s a pretty simple concept.
Charlie Kirk spouted hate and bigotry and built a career out of it.
He advocated for violence against trans and gay people.
Not every human is a good person deep down inside. Charlie Kirk was a terrible person, an ally to the fascists, and advocating violence against minority groups.
This is no simple different beliefs.
He got what he advocated and deserved.
The 1000$ is split in multiple smaller sums, the the trickle down imagery but that stops there.
Trickle down economics is pejorative most of the time.
