"Sweden has one of the most educated populations in the world"
Yet they can't see that answered they just gave to a test have been changed and they defend the new answers? Perhaps they should go back for quality education rather than just most.
I look at it more of a game of tug-of-war with a multi-pointed star of rope. Society is the knot floating in the middle of the star and the extremists trying to pull it in their direction. I jump on the Libertarian side and pull hard, not because I want a Libertarian utopian anarchy, but because I think the center of the star has floated a bit to far over the totalitarian side then I am comfortable with. If it moves back in the Liberty direction then I'd be less likely to tug as hard and more likely to enjoy that society has given me nice roads and at least a basically educated populace.
And what do you do on your new island with your piles of cash sitting around? burn it for warmth. arrange it into a couch and a bed? Sounds like a lot of work. Perhaps you could employ some people to do it for him. or purchase some things from people that will make for you. That is the invisible hand at work. Even the sociopath will want something done and nobodies going to do it for free.
because the local is likely to stay here and utilize that education for the betterment of himself and those around him (invisible hand) where as the foreigner is going to take his invisible hand home with him.
a union is only going to have any power if it is big enough to not care about the individual any more. Too many places have high paying union jobs and lots of homeless where non union areas have much higher employment even if slightly lower pay.
Of course then you'd just have the few union coders that make the big bucks then the other 99% of them out only able to do open source stuff for free hoping to get "discovered"
Tuition is typically less than 50% sometimes far less of the cash for an education institution budget. The rest is grants and state and local appropriations (tax money)
Interestingly, I do a lot of encryption related work and those two parts are the least of our worries. Key management takes up 90% of the time that is applied to encryption and it is a constant and on going thing that puts data at horrible risk if it's not done right. From both sides, you need to secure the keys well enough that only the people that need them can get them but no so well that the people that need them can lock them selves out.
Everyone wants laws to counter the things that bug them. In the end, there are people outraged by everything where as I am humored. I live a happy life, and am only disappointed when someone elses ridiculous outrage is turned into laws affecting me.
And this is exactly why states rights are very important, and the scope creep of the federal government and wide reaching had that it has extended needs to be chopped off. There needs to be much less of what people in Texas vote on effecting California.
Newtonian physics is like the user manual while general relativity is like the engineering manual. Quantum mechanics, string theory and M theory are more like the design blueprints.

A masochist eh? I guess if you're used to Solaris then the mess of Oracle doesn't seem quite as bad.
Only the Sith deal in absolutes.

There has obviously not been any economic downturn ...that's for sure. The pendulum swings both ways.

Are you kidding me? Hollywood is one of the biggest producers of useless 1%ers.

Then all your customers are making less overall money and your sales drop, profits drop, company goes out of business.
The invisible hand pushes both ways.

who would have thought something could be too gay for apple?

So, why is the argument to tax the free lunch rather than remove taxes from your pension plan?
" He's obviously too incompetent to do his job."
A university professor? This is unpossible.
When it comes to knowledge and skill, those with out it, teach it. In short "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach."
Haven't used Oracle much have you.

Too many pbrains to understand it.
not lately, it's been the SCotUS.
Good riddance, I hate astronauts.
government and law need to be difficult to get implemented and easy to repeal. period.
Politicians should be the same, difficult to become one easy to get booted out.
Never going to happen, but ohh well.
