i figured this was just a thing like how if you came from a country that made good food or had good restaurants or something you would just assume it was the same in NAAshenai wrote:
I don't mean I buy $800 Armani suits lol, just that I buy clothes from clothes manufacturers, like everyone else.
like, in NA,, our clothes are made in the shittiest cheapest way possible, from the shittiest cheapest material possible, plastic.
buying clothes from people that actually makes clothes is like a dream. granted you can at least get linen if you get up to like the gap, but you're still not getting clothes from people who are the best at it, or even want to be doing it.
Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
NA is a big country, I don't think you can really generalize like that. Also I have some 50% polyester stuff I like, it's a hardy and non-demanding material that has its place!s. goblin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 23, 2023 11:26 pmi figured this was just a thing like how if you came from a country that made good food or had good restaurants or something you would just assume it was the same in NAAshenai wrote:

Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
oh yeah this post made me realize that ashenai is misstating comparative advantage: it's not necessary that the people making the clothes are the best at it. They could be quite bad at it, but everyone else has more importantrenumerative things to dos. goblin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 23, 2023 11:26 pmi figured this was just a thing like how if you came from a country that made good food or had good restaurants or something you would just assume it was the same in NAAshenai wrote:

Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
just open your own factories, huh
Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
I was simplifying, but yes. The point is that specialization works well. It's not worth it to try and do a lot of different things well.Rylinks wrote: ↑Mon Jan 23, 2023 11:41 pmoh yeah this post made me realize that ashenai is misstating comparative advantage: it's not necessary that the people making the clothes are the best at it.

Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
i would add financial services to this list, but regardless all of these jobs require a college degree or are entertainment and like any good liberal i think it's important to protect less skilled workers from the sharp end of economic competition

Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
essay on the relative merits of compassion and changing attitudes vs. legal and constitutional structures for securing rights, https://writing1pell.files.wordpress.co ... le0001.pdf
Cruelty to strangers and foreigners has prompted many people to seek ways to prevent such actions from recurring. Some solutions envision a framework of cosmopolitan largess that relies on the population to spontaneously and generously "imagine" other persons, and to do so on a day-by-day basis. Alternative solutions, in contrast, attempt to solve the problem of human "otherness" through constitutional design
Re: POLITICS MOTHERFUCKER
I'm not sure we can solve the problem of police brutality until something happens that wakes up the entire country, such as for example Whoopi Goldberg getting savagely beaten up by police
