Barrel Cactaur posted:Interesting way to write Chinese economy dies as it no longer trades finished goods for raw materials, food, and medicine. Please recall Russia is currently being fought off with essentially spares. Russian stability has been based on a carefully structured prison house of nations being run by the biggest gang. China has based it on economic prosperity. Crashing Russias raw materials export market was never going to stop them, because someone will always take the deal. But China is much more vulnerable. Military needs just can't take up the slack, or provide the food in short order. Their poor agricultural disease control makes this extra fragile. china has the industrial economy Number likes to pretend the us has. it’s already done the whole input substitution game with its immediate neighbors and has moved on to become the largest trading partner of: russia, most of africa, most of south america (lol eat poo poo soutcom lady general), etc. the whole underdeveloped world is waiting to take over consumption of chinese goods if but for dollar hegemony and the encirclement of nukes by the psychotic empire. the good news is you’re posting it the thread dedicated to laughing at the collapse of the former, and for the latter xi jinping thought knows you just have to wait for american hardware to fall apart from neglect

I will go homeless before I rent ever again. Edit: For the record, my wife and I have rented from 4 other places in our time together and have NEVER been accused of this bullshit and have always got our security deposit back without hassle. the last apartment we were in we lived in for 5 years with three children and our dog and we got the security deposit back sans standard cleaning fee (in the lease for $200) within two weeks.

It wouldn't be overkill at all for each large building to have a dedicated elevator tech imo.

my company is expected to let go 5,000-10,000 employees. not sure how many headlines it will make as it’s in waves and some are technically contractors so reporting laws don’t kick in. but it’s already started and it’s not pretty.

Shear Modulus posted:It's a good thing we made a bunch of unaccountable judges the country's supreme ruling body Hamilton, Federalist 78 posted:But it is not with a view to infractions of the Constitution only, that the independence of the judges may be an essential safeguard against the effects of occasional ill humors in the society. These sometimes extend no farther than to the injury of the private rights of particular classes of citizens, by unjust and partial laws. Here also the firmness of the judicial magistracy is of vast importance in mitigating the severity and confining the operation of such laws. It not only serves to moderate the immediate mischiefs of those which may have been passed

it's always great how the federalist papers, which in high school history class were mentioned in reverential tones like they were the loving pauline epistles but what they actually are is just james madison talking about how the constitution is awesome because every part of it is rigged so that the public can never actually control the government but we can still pretend it's democratic

i once went to small claims over a car crash. some guy t boned me outside community college 9999 yrs ago and sued me for the max. for some strange reason my insurance company agreed with my plan to counter sue for the max also and theyd foot the bill. it was small claims so i represented myself amnd was like 20 years old. the judge thought it was really hosed up and pretty funny and awarded us both the full 10k so we just gave eachother 10k. well he gave me his real 10k and my insurance company gave him 10k. it got deposited into my bank account which i wired to the insurance company. it was really weird. my mom drove me to court. it was cool. the judge asked me if i wanted ot be a lawyer when i grew up. lmfao. anyways that was a long time ago. the guy also came to court with a walker and neck brace, neither of which he needed since he wasnt injured at all.

MMATANG recruiters pay a lot for some reason. recruiters seem way overvalued, just going up to someone and saying " eyy u want a job here? big figgies! ok cool sign on the dotted line" works better than hiring 9999 recruiters. but on the flip side, they're always first to get laid off
