@salitribule Les Pays-Bas consacrent 10-11 % du PIB à la santé.
La France environ 11-12 % du PIB.

Il y a d autres sources de financement que la prime d assurance obligatoire.

Vous racontez donc n importe quoi

[Marcel Muraille @MarcelMuraille]

@CowsEatGrassBlg The U.S. is around 60%

@AmerikanerMan @nonregemesse Calling historians “Marxists” isn’t an argument. Hobsbawm was openly Marxist and still one of the greatest historians of the 20th century. A political lens doesn’t cancel rigorous work—caricatural Twitter takes do.

@BorealBaron "Spain had the biggest windfall in history and still failed to industrialize". Not my take : Acemoglu & Robinson (nobel prize winners), Why Nations Fail.

[Marcel Muraille @MarcelMuraille]

@BorealBaron Result: Spain exported raw materials and imported finished goods (Dutch textiles, Italian manufacture), fueling inflation and decline. Not laziness, not Napoleon: misallocation of labor and capital. Spain generated virtually no transformative technological innovation at that time

@lucasaganronald The troll army was quick to react 😂
They did a survey among their fans.
Obviously they chose the easy option of not renewing the contract because breaking a contract is expensive (and you dont wanna change the jersey mid-season)

[Marcel Muraille @MarcelMuraille]

@lucasaganronald The deal with Arsenal wasn’t renewed because of pressure from supporters due to the conflict in the DRC.

The professional cyclists are going to be thrilled to go from one boycott to another lol.

The New Yorker story is chilling: shutting down USAID has already killed 600,000 people, most of them children.

For no reason other than Elon Musk’s ego, Marco Rubio’s complicity, & Republican Members of Congress’ cult-like loyalty to Trump. Devastating.

@Ismailovitch888 C est une citation de l Abbe Pierre, n est ce pas? Il aurait mieux fait de ne pas donner de leçons de morale

@okaythenfuture It’s alright.

I just wish people who get praised on twitter would
stick to the content they were originally recognized for - no need to throw in your 2cents of toxic masculinity on a topic you clearly know nothing about

That said, I do enjoy your content about Asia and Africa

@ca_hurstel @GerardAraud Son objectif, c était pas le débat, c était avoir raison quitte a tronquer les faits.

Le débat, ca doit etre la dialectique : examiner honnêtement les faits et arguments adverses.

Lui, il se contentait de faire de la rhétorique. C est percutant et vide.

Gaza has had the largest drop in life expectancy of any places on earth in modern history:

@mepassistants And why is he speaking at the EP bout geopolitics when he’s a development economist?!

[Marcel Muraille @MarcelMuraille]

@mepassistants The real question is, what ever happened to Jeffrey Sachs? A decade ago, everyone was raving about his books on ending poverty—now he’s out here spreading misinformation about Ukraine and COVID 🫠🤔

When Economists Shut Off Your Water
Access to water in Nairobi is horribly unequal. The World Bank, Nairobi Water Company, and development economists exploited this unjust context to treat poor Kenyans like guinea pigs
