In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.
Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt.
While Norway still owns everything and has the equivalent of £10tn.
That's how privatisation 'works'.
Why don't people understand that when they cut benefits, pensions, free childcare, healthcare, schools.
That money doesn't go to you.
It goes to billionaires.
People don't understand the rich.
Have you ever played a Video Game?
Noticed that you don't care if you hurt, bankrupt, kill the NPCs because to you they aren't people.
Well that is exactly how the richest see you, numbers on a spreadsheet, they don't care what happens to you.
They could announce that the richest 0.00004% of people have 95% of the money and they'd still be ranting on about an immigrant having a better cardboard box than them.
That is genuinely how stupid 20% of the population are.
80% of the families that were the richest in the world 500 years ago, are still the richest in the world now.
All Capitalism does is keep the same people in charge forever, while pretending that you can achieve that too.
But you can't.
@khalidkarim I would argue that a sponsored student not returning is brain drain because these kids are expected to fill up positions in MARA, public service, PETRONAS, etc.
Nurses & doctors leaving has been a thing for a while.
Onco Penang recently lost 3 doctors in a single week.
@khalidkarim All of the above 😅
So far the only ok uses of AI slop have been:
Videos of cats with guns, cats playing musical instruments, cat-fu, those Lego animations, and that guy going around slapping politicians, footballers, horror movie villains, etc.
Basically comedy.
All else = 🤮
