Why not frame things from the perspective of rewarding good performance? I am sure this will get bought by companies looking to squeeze their workers…and I will not be surprised if this leads to worse outcomes for staff and employers in the medium to long term.
It is amazing what HN mods choose to step in an unflag. Really speaks to the performative ethos around “intellectual curiosity”. Elon making a nazi salute is not interesting but Graham speaking about wokeness is interesting and should be discussed.
McKinsey is a deeply unethical company that has skirted meaningful accountability over the last few decades. I highly recommend reading When McKinsey Comes To Town [1] - it really opened my eyes to how hypocritical and self-serving the culture is at the firm.
Maybe a small aside..but it’s very interesting how we as a society took very little learnings from the Crack epidemic during the early years of the Opioid Crisis.

"we could not govern ourselves" really belies how young many countries are and the unique challenges they face w.r.t. interference from developed nations. Nation building takes _time_ and I would implore you to think about the historical events that have shaped your nation.
Well I will remember this. It reflects poorly that your responses are childish when grappling with light criticism. Is this “Founder Mode”?
