If you will read the whole book instead of the quote you'll see that he went on to point out the necessity of government regulation in the market and that corporate charters are a great danger to civilization and so should be granted only as a last resort.
He understood that the quote you put up only works if Me, the butcher, the brewer, and the baker are on roughly equal footing in terms of financial power. When all of them but me are billionaires, it all falls apart.
According to TFA it's because of government inaction. In Sweden, the government created a nice level field for people to compete on and so they compete vigorously.
RTFA! It is the size of California but with a lower population density. In other words, it was harder for them than it is for us.
Why not implement their plan in California, it's apples to apples there. Then implement their plan in Nevada, then Arizona, I think you get the drift...
You must have forgotten about the billions of tax dollars that were paid to private corporations in the united states to speed up broadband deployment. Which they simply pocketed.
Not to mention the various subsidies they receive including right of way provided through an exercise of eminent domain.
The only difference is that YOUR tax dollars didn't lower the bill they send you.
Employers NEVER fire people for attending jury duty.
Sure, where you work. Some people are stuck working McJobs and do get penalized if they dare to ask for a day off, even if it is for jury duty. They don't get the chance to put in 30 hours over the weekend so they don't end up homeless at the end of the month.
I don't see corruptions in embedded devices that are usually shut off by unplugging them. I don't see the corruptions after punching the reset button. It seems journald is much more susceptible to corrupting the logs.
Even if not, the child has a right to privacy. As a minor, the decision of what pictures of the child may be posted online falls to the parent or guardian. The DOJ is neither.
Well, many employers strongly discourage a second job. I never said they could cut it off forever, but let's just say that in the vast majority of cases they can cause a whole lot more trouble for you than you can for them (unless you break the law).
But the employee WAS fired. That the actual result may or may not have been beyond expectation is irrelevant. There was expectation of an adverse reaction.
And we can tax the hell out of them if necessary to balance the books. Consider it a transformer fixing up the impedance mismatch between the U.S. and Indian economy.
No. A company that selects an applicant from one country over another in a particular case is quite different from one that instructs it's hiring manager to not hire anyone of X nationality.
For one thing, in this country, the latter is illegal. Given that Infosys itself is a guest in this country, it's well beyond rude. If they think so little of Americans IN AMERICA, they should go to some other country where they like the people better.
Since this is for people working in the U.S. and the choice is between H1-B and a citizen, it is actually illegal for them to pay less than the typical American salary expectation.

Look at it per capita and with adjusted dollars since 1960.
Consider that since the early 1960's, women have entered the workforce en masse. Many households went from a single breadwinner to two incomes.
Going back further, consider that at one time, that spreadsheet on a desktop PC was computed by a room full of people.
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck.... Shoot it!
But it's fiddler crab season.
I personally am not in that boat, but realistically, if nobody was our entire economy would unravel in an instant.

REALLY, read An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, it's even free!
According to TFA it's because of government inaction. In Sweden, the government created a nice level field for people to compete on and so they compete vigorously.
So let's do that!
Sweden effectively did exactly that and it worked well.
Clearly it does not. Even while the GDP has grown by a factor of 6 in the U.S. real income is down for the majority.

Looks like it's flimsy excuses all the way down.

Journald is failing by corrupting the log in the first place. It is the writer, it is in control of that. It fails at that.
My old text based log files on a small group of servers and a number of desktop machines contain no corruptions in the log files at all.
Even if not, the child has a right to privacy. As a minor, the decision of what pictures of the child may be posted online falls to the parent or guardian. The DOJ is neither.
You do know that unemployment doesn't pay 100% right? And that it runs out faster than many people have been able to find a comparable job, right?
It's fine and dandy that 1 person can't crash a corporation, but that doesn't mean that the person shouldn't be just as un-crashable.
Consider: the imbalance I speak of is why real wages have been in continuous decline for several decades.
Mob rules isn't the right answer either. That's why we have the population based House balanced by the 2 per state Senate.
They should be careful with that ploy. The people will tolerate what they can and then they'll kill the ruling class.

The catch is, if ALL of the favorable conditions you named are true you can just about reach parity. If any are false, not so much.
That's why in general, employment law needs to at least slightly favor the employee.
I didn't claim you stifled anything, just that you claim to sit in judgement. Get over yourself before you scrape your ears.

You do realize that in order to avoid those taxes and regulations, we'll need to turn the U.S. into a copy of India, warts and all, right?
I notice those same companies that want to offshore don't mind charging Americans 1st world prices. That too will have to go.
So what are your thoughts on an African-American being discriminated against by Infosys?
No. A company that selects an applicant from one country over another in a particular case is quite different from one that instructs it's hiring manager to not hire anyone of X nationality.
For one thing, in this country, the latter is illegal. Given that Infosys itself is a guest in this country, it's well beyond rude. If they think so little of Americans IN AMERICA, they should go to some other country where they like the people better.

An opportunity is not a job. I didn't say they could cut it off forever, now did I?
Fundamentally, there is an imbalance of power there.
Actually, she would only need to show that Comcast expected some sort of adverse reaction. And if it didn't, why did it contact the employer at all?
