This better not awaken anything in me

One major factor: women entered the workforce. Labor supply doubled, and two incomes per household became normalized. Our current economic system fails to account for the work of raising children which was implicitely built into the “traditional family” model.

That’s a double whammy for workers. The value of labor is halved. Both partners are expected to work to achieve a similar standard of living. And, without one partner doing household and child-rearing labor, those costs are borne by the workers.

Interesting! Thanks for elaborating.

How is that better than a database? Is someone concerned that Walmart will fabricate supply chain tracking?

Can you name another technology that has such a high hype to delivered value ratio?

Dab pen and spice jars.

That’s basically enough to start a religion in medieval times. Spices to finance a nice temple, and dabs to create a religious experience forc prophets who testify to the power of the faith.

Of course there is. I mean, not at Meta, but as a general concept it exists.

Or maybe we could work a unified coalition of voters around the implementation of a carbon tax, incremented over a period of years, to align those incentives?

Carbon tax! Carbon tax!!

Carbon tax! Carbon tax!

Kitty History time!

Are all of these “moe” communities one artist?

No comment on the art, but the proliferation of basically the same content across dozens of communities is irritating. I’m tired of playing whac-a-moe.

Yes. This is the silent problem of enormous wealth inequality in the US. As the middle class disappears, fewer people are able to pay small fees to contribute to things like local news, community organizations, and online services.

Wildest? Really?

This is good

President feigns ignorance of basic domestic economics to appear sympathetic going into an election cycle

This is cool!

Anybody tried this? How is it?

Thank you for sharing!
