If you mix poor and rich kids in the same areas, and they attend the same schools...
But they won't. The rich kids' parents will yank them out and enroll them in private schools as soon as poor/black/Latino students show up in any kind of numbers.
there are a lot of people who won't give up their national sovereignty to a world government (even if it's a democratic one).
Sounds good until you get to the details. What does a democratic world government look like? Each nation gets one vote = North and South America are fucked.
Each human gets one vote = China tells everyone what to do.
How come proven liars such as Pelosi and Feinstein keep on getting re-elected despite all the goddamn things that they have done?
Are the USian voters so damn stupid?
You UKians should realize that it is because their opponents are even worse.
This is what makes LinkedIn 'references' bullshit. People have recommended me for skills they can't possibly know I even have. It devalues the whole system.
One of the few things I learned in college was how to learn things. Today I could teach myself almost anything. I know how to assemble the resources, how to study them, how to test my understanding.
Freshman me would not have a clue how to do this.
I've been buying Philips SlimStyle LED bulbs for standard sockets at Home Depot lately. They are often on sale for less than $5 and put out a nice light.
We asked a gentleman by us, if he knew what cause was on? He told us Jarndyce and Jarndyce. We asked him if he knew what was doing in it? He said, really no he did not, nobody ever did; but as well as he could make out, it was over. Over for the day? we asked him. No, he said; over for good.
Over for good!
When we heard this unaccountable answer, we looked at one another quite lost in amazement. Could it be possible that the Will had set things right at last, and that Richard and Ada were going to be rich? It seemed too good to be true. Alas, it was!
Our suspense was short; for a break up soon took place in the crowd, and the people came streaming out looking flushed and hot, and bringing a quantity of bad air with them. Still they were all exceedingly amused, and were more like people coming out from a Farce or a Juggler than from a court of Justice. We stood aside, watching for any countenance we knew; and presently great bundles of paper began to be carried outâ"bundles in bags, bundles too large to be got into any bags, immense masses of papers of all shapes and no shapes, which the bearers staggered under, and threw down for the time being, anyhow, on the Hall pavement, while they went back to bring out more. Even these clerks were laughing. We glanced at the papers, and seeing Jarndyce and Jarndyce everywhere, asked an official-looking person who was standing in the midst of them, whether the cause was over. "Yes," he said; "it was all up with it at last!" and burst out laughing too....
"Mr. Kenge," said Allan, appearing enlightened all in a moment. "Excuse me, our time presses. Do I understand that the whole estate is found to have been absorbed in costs?"
"Hem! I believe so," returned Mr. Kenge. "Mr. Vholes, what do you say?"
They need to get rid of all the obvious crap before Western consumers stop buying their laptops altogether and the back doors and data harvesters hidden deep in the hardware by the intel arm of the PLA stop being carried into every Western home and workplace.

Sometimes I feel like I am living in the long prequel novel which explains how the world in 1984 evolved.

In Communist China, they kill you with nitrogen gas and bill your family for the demurrage.
You know that if elected, Ralph Nader would take away our cars right? Write in J. Bob Dobbs if you want to make a point.

British and French policymakers couldn't sell their peoples on a war in 1936
It's hard to convince people to go back to war when many of them are still healing from the last one.
Too many people wanted to vouch for my skills.

I didn't know what that was. I had to google it.

Good thing, too - t's the only way I remember to set my clocks.

If you can't trust the employees you hire to perform well...
Then your hiring process sucks, too.
In Q2 we are all going to die, so we should shift as many receivables into Q1 as possible to make our metrics.
