South Africa reverting back to just Africa.

High in-group preference and no feelings of camaraderie with 'legacy' workers.

Looking at levels of corruption in India, this 'takeover' is not a good thing for America.

Straight out of the WEF playbook: https://www.weforum.org/impact/online-safety/

> "We penetrate the cabinet. So yesterday I was at a reception for Prime Minister Trudeau and I know that half of his cabinet, or even more than half of his cabinet, are actually Young Global Leaders."

The ultimate objective is the complete de-anonymization of the internet, so that all dissenters can be identified and unpersoned.

Can we just ban fluorine compounds from being used on clothes, household objects, food packaging or preparation, firefighting, de-icing?

If not working in a mine, these children will be working subsistence agriculture, which is equally as back-braking.

The underlying problem is an excess of manual labor in Africa, caused by excessive birth rates. Take fertility rates down to sub-replacement like they are in the rest of the world, and mining will just be automated.

100 years ago there were no single moms. Unmarried births have increased from 19% in 1950 to 72% in 2010 for Africa-American women: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/files/2014/12/e...

Largely due to the expansion of the welfare state which encourages single motherhood.

Road tax needs to be morphed into road-usage tax, based on time of day, location, axle weight, and distance.

It should be prohibitively expensive to use congested freeways and city streets during peak hours, but free at all other times.

Road expansion is justified based on peaks of usage - so by smoothing out these peaks, we can save significantly on the need to build more roads. Trip length can also scale non-linearly based on congestion: 10-20% more cars than capacity can result in 50% longer trips.

Just allow the elderly to accrue property/land tax debts against the value of the property, redeemed when sold/transferred or on death.

Sounds like these clinics are simply not charging enough, and not paying staff enough either. If they are choked with excessive demand then why not just increase prices until equilibrium is reached?

Gaming revenues across the board are flat or down post-COVID, and especially with Russian consumers taken out.

Gaming is mostly unprofitable given the excessive 30% commissions charged by Valve, Apple, Google, Sony, Microsoft. Only platform owners make consistent profits.

And the rate for White victims in the USA is 87% (from within the article). Fairly similar.

The overall rate is brought down by the volume of black victims (predominantly killed by others blacks), and the resistance to supporting police within those same communities.

Better to just offer a 10% reduction in LVT per person (including children) living there, if at least one of the people was the owner.

A family of four would then have an inherent tax advantage against Blackrock etc. accumulating family housing.
