I can see the point but degree matters. If taxes are socialism then the world is essentially 100% socialist, and the word is essentially meaningless. ChatGPT says 75-80% of busines…

I think I like the suggestion, but it’s firmly on the capitalism end of the spectrum. Profit sharing is one of the incentives I look at when looking for a job. Not too far off from…

Did they tell you that?

I wouldn’t describe them as nationalistic or fascist. There’s no need to bring in any sort of political view… the problem is when little people get a little power. It can get ugly.…

It’s the same people. There’s always been an element of luck. I travel a lot and I’ve interacted with a lot of border agents. I’d say luck is important for a lot of countries. I’ve…
