Wolt has been in news lately for some reason. From what I've learned over the years, nations should be administered just like businesses. Looking at Wolt, they have borrowed a ton of money yet haven't made any kind of profit ever.

Hmmmmm? :thunk:

What I got from the Wolt thing is that since their drivers are yrittäjäs taking yrittäjäriski, they need to get a cut from the sale.

Allocate 10% of the sales price these yrittäjäs, and divide it according to how many individual contracts they had with Wolt. Seems fair.

Unfortunately the deliverers weren't property of Wolt as one might think and even less share owners, they were just independent business pardners. Equal partners, too. But I find your suggestion good, it just has to go both ways. When a conglomerate is sold for billions, workers/partners should get a slice. And when a worker/partner sells their used up Corolla for 100 bucks, the conglomerate should get a fair share.

Soininvaara seems to be going down the same rabbit hole as Wahlroos and other great thinkers.

Soininvaara is nothing but logical in his thinking.

I just don't understand to what he bases his premise that there are huge number of workers who are too low quality to be worth of decent wage.

How about we first do perustulo and then start fiddling with wages? Because doing it the other way around is 99% certain to result into lower wages and promises of perustulo for the next 30+ years.

He is a statistician. It is not a moral argument, but rather an attempt to address reality as it is. He is working within the market system, and attempting to find what would work within that framework.

The fact that long term unemployment exists, I guess. Basic income would be preferable to toimeentulotuki.

There’s quite a few people with just elementary school education, around 30% I think and currently very limited number of jobs available them. Options are to either send them back to school, or subsidise their salaries.

There’s another issue that they’re often living in areas where there are not and will not be any jobs but Kepu is gonna Kepu and that is another issue.

This is tied to how it's impossible to take a home in Kainuu on its own property and transport all of that to Töölö where finding work would be easier, it's likewise impossible to sell your lande home for any kind of money that would help you find a similar property in Töölö.

Everyone considering moving south, please just move to Helsinki and stay there. Property prices elsewhere in Uusimaa are bad enough as they are and we can't stand the distance working hipsters who are escaping Helsinki in droves and ruining every nice town in the vicinity of pääkaupunki for the rest of us. (yeah i know, lmao at there being "nice towns" in uusimaa, let's be honest and say somewhat habitable instead)

I've lived now in Espoo for about a year now. It feels more like a collection of towns than a real city and all the places that have a chance of feeling like a real city are hugging Helsinki anyway so I'm moving back because like said above, the difference in rent is not really present anymore.

Helsinki is what it is due to geography but housing prices are still reasonable in Turku, Tampere, Oulu and Jyväskylä. What is not reasonable is that certain party insists on propping up rural counties that are not viable in any way. Maakunta reform will not end up well because there’s still twice as many of them as we need.

Where did you get that number? It might be true for older generations, but for younger ones the percentage has been around 15% or less.

The most current data I found gave the percentage of over 15 year olds at 26%, and that's artificially high, because it is counted from everyone over 15, not over 18 or 19-year olds, ie. people who've had time to actually complete a degree.

Eh, I like living in a place with some kind of identity. Espoo probably has even less inhabitants born in the place than Helsinki so I guess that also makes it seem a bit rootless.

I went to a job interview in Espoo and the cab ride from "Espoon keskus" (whatever the gently caress that's supposed to be) to the office was about ½ an hour through honest-to-goodness forest. They just decided to build an office park in the middle of a forest. I guess it's cheap but a big gently caress you to anyone who doesn't want to own an automobile.

I'm OK, you're so-so
Vihreiden nykytilannetta vois selittää osaltaan se, että aiemmilla hallituskausillaan ne ovat aina olleet sinipunahallituksissa. Linjaa ovat vetäneet joko oikeistodemarit tai kokoomus ja oppositiossa on ollut keskusta ja myöhemmin ps. Vihreiden oikeistosiipi on siis pysynyt tyytyväisenä eikä vasemmalla siivellä ole ollut mitään minne livetä, kun sd/vas ovat olleet yhtälailla hallituksessa eivätkä ne kepulaisiksikaan voi ryhtyä. Lipponen II ja Katainen/Stubb oli myös niin laajapohjaisia hallituksia että niistä saattoi tiukan paikan tullen erota kokonaan ilman että koko hallitus kaatuu. Nyt tilanne on ihan eri, kun ollaankin isolla eduskuntaryhmällä aika niukkaenemmistöisessä vasemmistohallituksessa ja oppositiossa on kokoomus. Ilmastoasiat ovat hallitusohjelmassa isossa roolissa, mutta niissä keihäänkärkenä onkin SDP. Vihreiden vasemmassa laidassa on varmasti jo joku huomannut, että sd ja vasemmistoliitto ovat ilmasto- ja ihmisoikeusasioissa ihan samoilla linjoilla mutta niillä on jopa sellainenkin asia kuin johdonmukainen yhteiskuntafilosofinen ja talouspoliittinen ideologia siinä pohjalla, mitä vihreillä ei ole koskaan oikein ollut (ja niillä on vielä ne valovoimaisemmat johtajatkin). Oikea laita taas vuotaa ihan varmasti kokoomukseen, kun aiemmin pöhinäpohjalta vihreitä äänestäneet ovat yhtäkkiä hoksanneet että ilmasto- ja ihmisoikeusasioiden todellinen edistäminen vaatiikin jonkinlaista kollektiivista vastuunottoa ja eihän se nyt tietenkään sovi. Mitään näppärää kontrastipuoluettakaan vihreillä ei juuri nyt ole, kun PS on kasvanut liian isoksi ja kepu on kuihtunut liian pieneksi. Eikä mitään isoa protestiperformanssiakaan voi tässä hallituksessa oikein suorittaa ilman että koko korttitalo kaatuu, millä imagopisteet tuskin nousisivat yhtään tässä tilanteessa, varsinkin kun siihen ei ole mitään kunnollista syytäkään kun hallitusohjelmaa on vihreiden kynnyskysymysten suhteen ymmärtääkseni noudatettu. Eli kaiken kaikkiaan vihreät kärsivät koska vasemmisto on kerrankin valtaan päästessään parempi ajamaan niitä asioita joita vihreät väittävät ajavansa, ja markkinaliberaalit vihreiden äänestäjät tietenkin mieluummin loikkaavat kokoomukseen kuin katsovat peiliin.
