"suffering so much that the government had to step in and institute limitations such as the 40-hour work week, holiday and sick time, overtime rules, breaks and lunches, and other basic rights that many workers take for granted today."
False. Leftist militant workers banded together and continually inflicted violence and destruction, and what you cite is the result.
Reminds of the weight weenies (bicycling) who proclaim the speed benefits of lightweight tires...that puncture...a lot. I point out that my chunky, heavy (few grams more) tires keep me rolling while others are on the side of the road fighting to get a new tube in...all the time. The argument is total crap and the point void of substance.
This describes the most common reality. Development looks at the IT security team like they are a bunch of knuckle dragging apes. This also causes them to resent any kind of security oversight.
Infusing security into every decision is a philosophy that must be inspired from the top as a change in culture. Not sexy, not fun. Compared to a mid-level manager's daily WTFs it is not a path worth taking. Someone else's problem.
I suggest integrating security into the development process first. Ops is already integrated though it is really a manual effort most of the time and only provides a cursory level of compliance-grade security. Getting security integrated with development is very difficult because the development managers fight it and they are taken to be the experts on their craft. Same with integration testing and load testing--these suffer the same level of exposure in the process. The opposing side (InfoSec or whoever) is ignored because they do not have the knowledge or power to breach the silo that the development managers hide in. The argument gets lost in the noise and upper management glosses over and moves on to something they are interested in--generating more business/revenue.
It is really very simple. Developers want nothing to do with testing and proving their code actually works--they just want to code. Security is someone else's problem.
They have virtual monopolies on extraction and delivery. There is no way in hell they are going to get and equivalent share of the profits for installing and maintaining solar and wind infrastructure....totally different business and the profit scale is not there. It will be lucrative but the barrier to entry is much lower than spinning up a new mining company or building out a network of refineries. Those barriers ensure their profits and command in the market.
Facts win? Because you want/wish them to? In my experience it's not what you know but who you know that has a far greater influence on "success." Do facts win on FaceBook? Do they win in the case of biased reporting by legitimate media outlets?
Christian day schools are everywhere...you can attend at that rate but most would elect to attend more and pay more. Psst...they aren't really Christian.
The schools simply failed. Large public institutions are always bad at what they do. We threw money at them for decades but the federal government and state government stuck their nose in as a condition of getting money. We now have failure and bunch of finger pointing.
FYI Public Education: You are not getting any more money. We will not keep putting our trust in centralized bureaucracies to raise our children and indoctrinate them with pop-culture PC bullshit.
File a FOIA request for all of your local school systems' financials and invoices for the last five years and audit them. Find out where all the money went and continues to go. It didn't go into smart innovative ideas that work...let me tell you that. A lot of it ends up being paid to banks and bond holders in a far off metropolis.
Their wages are outlandish for the required skills.
They get raises their entire career and retire with a pension for life (after 20 years of work) that is an average of their last three years of pay.
You can make much more in corporate jobs or as an entrepreneur but the job is attracting sloughs that do not have ambition or the required skills to compete in corporate America or the business world in general.
Yawn. People go into education because it is the easiest academic track. No scary math required. Benefits are outrageous for otherwise unemployable people.
I advocate for no discipline and no grading. Only necessary in an institution. Institutional education is a compromise yet people treat it like the end-all be-all of all time.
If a man complains because they make less than another man doing the same job everyone just looks at them, shrugs, and says they need to learn how to negotiate. I fucking blew my colleagues away because I made friends and focused on my pay level because it was important to me to get a serious cut of the company's profits. My male colleagues weren't any less talented or accomplished...they just didn't fight for their money. Everyone knew I passed them up but they also knew I worked my ass off and demanded it. I tried to teach some of them how to get more money. Ambition is everything. Every company's policy is to offer "market" rate for every position. You can get far better than market rate if you demonstrate value AND demand the money!! Your resume and the way you promote yourself go a long way towards winning a better cut of the profits.
Ambition, value(experience), self-promotion...if you miss one you get boring ass market rate.
In Appalachia the girls sling 80lb bails of hay while the boys sit on the couch. There is an Appalachian stereotype of the pregnant wife who has to change the tire while her husband watches or just kicks back in the car. I can tell you from my anecdotal experience that this is true enough to have me LMAO when they parody this stereotype on the Simpsons.
"Authorized agents and third parties" means their partners that require having personal information in order to service your account or comply with government regulations. Quit spreading bullshit.
Banks cannot sell information for marketing reasons.
Let me give you an example. Company A issues you a card/account on Bank A. Your direct deposits are sent to Bank B which has a relationship with Company A. Your information can be shared obviously...even though you do not have a relationship with Bank B. The terms of service must clear this.
Another example: Company A issues you a card/account. Company A contracts with a customer service call center--lets call it Company B. The terms of service clause you point out also serves to clear them for this as well. This type of relationship is VERY common-and-many in each financial services company. There is a risk that these other companies will steal your personal information--and some bad actors do quite often. But customers and regulators are notified in those cases.
The clause you identify as a means for the bank to share your information willy-nilly is not in fact used for that.
You shouldn't lock your wealth in crypto. Preferably you could use a trading and payment platform that would convert and send using any of them...instantly. Keep your wealth in a stable currency, like USD for instance, but easily pay with crypto of choice by converting at market rate at the time of sale. Unfortunately, this is regulated because USD are involved--forcing you to essentially speculate as you are now.
