Well, I think you've proven my point... > because socialism has never required COMPLETE ownership by the state Sure, it's only complete ownership by the workers. > What makes it so…

The point is that they became effective when they abandoned socialism as the economic doctrine. So there is no such thing as "their flavour of socialism". The 20th century showed t…

What I think is "absolutely insane" is how oblivious of recent history people are. Up until the 1980s half of Europe was socialist, and it is at that time that China started moving…

State ownership of all companies, yes, that's one implementation of socialism though not "literally the definition". But obviously this isn't how China is now and even state-owned …

State ownership of many companies is not the same as socialism. China has state capitalism and private capitalist enterprises, and free enterprise with robust free markets overall.…

> People really need to give up the cold war, the failures of "end of history" thinking are directly related to all of the economic problems we have today. That's irrelevant to the…

The capitalism vs socialism debate was settled in the 1980s, and so was the value of free enterprise. It is odd that the debate should keep being brought up... However, the terms s…

This follows a winter much wetter than average and overall the trend is that the UK is getting wetter. But rainfall seems to be becoming more seasonal. Overall the issue is lack of…

> Sure but the hype has been about the 10x productivity increases and how less employees are needed Which will probably be true at some point when we have become good at using AI, …

AI has the potential to be extremely powerful but it is also very new. People and organisations are just at the beginning of the learning process.

They mean the most equitemporal for people starting from different locations and meeting at that pub.

The BBC reports, with pictures, that nothing of the sort happened [1]. [1] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy4ker2y1mko

Which taxes go directly to the EU rather than member states?

Thanks for illustrating my point...

Depending on the area that has always been the case, indeed. In fact, in the most historically prone areas, the Mediterranean part of France, number of fires and surface area burnt…

In the South of France, dry vegetation in summer is normal. Areas where this is most expected, the Mediterranean, have actually seen a decrease of fires over time as preventive mea…

The elephant in the room is that many of those fires are criminal and that the French government has arbitrated budget restrictions against investing in fire-fighting equipment, es…

You still need to tread carefully as @ncruses said. So not Marie Curie but Maria Skłodowska-Curie.

Note that even for that, countries had to chose neutral things not to create problems.

That's exactly why they are a better choice, like the imaginary bridges on current Euro banknotes. The selection of people is also quite poor but that's because people are a poor c…

Cynically, this is another use of "think of the children" to make everyone identify themselves when signing up for anything classed as "social media", bearing in mind that everyone…

However you look at it they don't want fossil fuels to be cheap, as demonstrated by all the policies I mentioned. So the aim is indeed high prices (because this makes other energy …

It is policy to ban shale gas and more North Sea gas. In Germany it is also policy to exit nuclear, like it was policy to depend on Russia. VAT is policy. The Ukraine War is a conv…
