When it happens it's because one party has identified exactly how many votes they need and bussed voters to a polling place to vote 'one more time' just before the polls close.
The real problem is: After a generation or two you get people like the parent who think they know something about manufacturing.
Hint: Manufacturing machines have never had shorter lifespans than now. They are enough better that companies go broke running old machines.
Japan and Europe had an advantage not long after WWII because they had no old machines left. But these days companies just constantly upgrade.
Fanuc makes controllers used by many other machine manufacturers. They are known for their outrageous pricing. You can get a complete HAAS machine for the price of the Fanuc controller.
China has traditionally managed its exchange rate based on one metric. Industrial utilization. It works about as well as managing programmers based on 'lines of code', but they haven't yet been burned...they have already built lots of useless stuff/empty cities to maintain 100% utilization.
China is the giant elephant in the room. They get a special deal, no other nation is allowed to peg its exchange rate and get 'most favored'. That will have to change, soon.
This batch of 'elderly' aren't the same as the last. No bank CDs. Keep their assets illiquid and in a trust, just to game the tax system, Medicaid and inheritance. Last move of the baby boom. Mark my words, they will suck the government tit, till the end. Eventually they won't have enough votes to get what they want, but by then there will only be a few left.
The problem is almost universal. The baby boom was far and wide, almost no nations actually saved money for their retirement.
It was the same year I first heard the phone metadata database rumor (the NSA knows who you know...anybody you've repeatedly called...world's largest database...etc)
At the time the NSA had to have had tapes shipped to them monthly, from many local TelCos, which was hard to keep quiet.
Strangely, for all the noise about Metadata, nobody in DC has asked anybody when it started...I'm guessing about 1920-1930. Kept on file cards at first.
I know how it will be resolved. Print even more money. The first step is easy to see.
The question? What do people do when _all_ the major currencies are being printed like mad? I think 'land', but I always think 'land'. Some people always think 'gold', 'guns', 'single malt', which aren't bad ideas, if you've got land to keep them on.
The English Pound is the canary. Worst in class. They are a good decade ahead of the pack.

Do you know who the attorney general works for? The head of the FBI?
Shut up, they might still nominate a commie in 3 years. Don't queer it.
Should they also have written Hillary's exoneration before the investigation is done?
Printed money has a cost, stolen money is free.
You have no argument, only point is on the top of your head.
'We the Living' (Rand's best and first work) on the other hand is pure simple history.
You can't waive someone else's right to sue the manufacturer.
They're asking for 10 years experience bullshitting more experience than you've got.
I'm massively overqualified...the trick is being able to learn fast enough to backfill.
I'll be happy to supply you with a whole can of Folgers for $199.
Woodchipper, chum, fishing, drinking (hired diver hanging my junk on friends hook).
Free money is over. SS trust fund is already sucking funds from the general fund.
If it were an insurance company, they'd slap the cuffs on congress.
About 60% of the population live to 80. Which is enough.
All that has to change is enough baby boomers die that they can't continue to suck money from the Ponzi scheme.
The hours long queues is largely a myth.

Sure, and in 'Red Mars' socialism works, along with chanting over plants to make them grow in near vacuum.
It's _fiction_.

In the time it took you write that post, you could have looked.
Look forward to inflation shrunk benes, but be glad your not getting nothing. Like later generations will.
There simply aren't lines of relatively rich, educated, professional people waiting to immigrate anymore. Which isn't to say just open the doors wide.
Our best be is some other currency going bad first. That might buy us the time we need.
5) Hookers and blow.
Never taught a _single_class_. Like most 'great professors', research only.
But the OP only quoted part of the statement:
Those that can, do.
Those that can't, teach.
Those that can't teach, administrate.
But you'll note that education admins are also products of education schools. The real root of the problem (in the USA anyhow).
It was stupid to nominate a candidate even worse than Trump, but they did.

We don't have 20 years.
