El lunes pasado escribí una columna sobre los efectos del turismo (turistificación, si lo preferís para diferenciar) sobre el crecimiento a largo plazo.
Lo hice porque ha habido un debate interesante estos días a raíz de la manifestación en Canarias que, sin embargo, y como es
Desgraciadamente es un pronóstico fácil de acertar. Lleva pasando décadas. Ya no es que no recortemos distancias con países punteros de la EZ, sino que cada vez están más lejos. Superados recientemente en PIB pc por Estonia o Rep Checa. Más madera.
Dentro de 4 años... España estará peor. También si gobernara la oposición. Fondos NG malogrados, sector público➕ineficiente, ➖riqueza pc sobre EZ...Los 2 grandes partidos no se atreven a reformas necesarias ni la izquierda se entera q la auténtica revolución es la meritocracia.
Jesse Owens of USA winning gold for the long jump in the summer Olympics in Germany, 1936. The man saluting behind Owens is Lutz Long, a German who shared training tips with Owens and was the first to openly congratulate him after his final jump in full view of Hitler.
After the Olympics, the two kept in touch via mail. Below is Long's last letter to Owens while he was stationed with the German Army in North Africa during World War 2. Long was later killed in action during the allied invasion of Sicily in 1943.
"I am here, Jesse, where it seems there is only the dry sand and the wet blood. I do not fear so much for myself, my friend Jesse, I fear for my woman who is home, and my young son Karl, who has never really known his father.
My heart tells me, if I be honest with you, that this is the last letter I shall ever write. If it is so, I ask you something. It is a something so very important to me.
It is you go to Germany when this war done, someday find my Karl, and tell him about his father. Tell him, Jesse, what times were like when we not separated by war. I am saying—tell him how things can be between men on this earth.
If you do this something for me, this thing that I need the most to know will be done, I do something for you, now. I tell you something I know you want to hear. And it is true.
That hour in Berlin when I first spoke to you, when you had your knee upon the ground, I knew that you were in prayer. Then I not know how I know. Now I do. I know it is never by chance that we come together. I come to you that hour in 1936 for purpose more than der Berliner Olympiade.
And you, I believe, will read this letter, while it should not be possible to reach you ever, for purpose more even than our friendship. I believe this shall come about because I think now that God will make it come about. This is what I have to tell you, Jesse.
I think I might believe in God. And I pray to him that, even while it should not be possible for this to reach you ever, these words I write will still be read by you.
Your brother, Luz"
Economic growth in European countries.
In many countries growth improved the economic situation of the middle class very substantially over the last decades.

Bien escrito. Y sorprende lo poco que se habla en campaña de ello. Las actuales previsiones de sostenibilidad del sistema de pensiones son un ejercicio de "wishful thinking".
Hoy @amjorge15 y @javimartzs escriben en @elconfidencial sobre el futuro del sistema de pensiones en España, los costes que traerá el envejecimiento de la población, su sostenibilidad y posibles reformas para reforzarlo.

📢 La Agencia Tributaria acaba de publicar hoy el listado de grandes deudores. ¡Pero lo hacen como una sucesión de páginas escaneadas!
Son trabas que nos obligan a la ciudadanía a tratar informáticamente los datos (OCR).
¡Esto tiene que cambiar!
¿Me ayudáis a difundirlo? 🔄👇

@polymatas@Recuenco Bueno, a mí no me resulta muy desconcertante el resultado. Cualquiera no religioso sale "very progressive". El eje económico, con mis respuestas, si me extraña más...
El Gobierno exige a las empresas 3 minutos como máximo para la atención telefónica. Pero para solucionar dudas sobre el Ingreso Mínimo Vital, el Ministerio de Inclusión tarda 18 días tras 150 llamadas.
Gracias @civio por destapar las injusticias.

@albertoblaz@logseq Same feeling here! The less TW I use, the more productive I get. I get a lots of good IT content by other means without all (unsolicited) politics and moral opinions. Not worth my time.
