@alpha_dweeb@Kubin222@pubity US is saying lower meds cost for Germany = lower profit = pharma goes to less restricted market aka US and do R&D there then charge big prices. Despite pharma making higher net profits than many other industries, they charge absurd prices in US because prices are unregulated
@factpostnews Was the no contracts to make sure it didnt just get used for some bullshit like this? or did the owner just blindly trusted mouth of word from the gov
@atrupar Why quoting a 2015 mckinsey study, I don't understand his framing. It is expected that their GDP figures would be lower, considering most women end up working fewer hours due to career breaks for motherhood, primary caregiving responsibilities, and the persistent wage gap
@HansMokeNiemann How does this invalidate his point? beside most of hikarus money comes from outside of chess. Streaming+stocks. Main point is chess olympians/olympic players in general needs to be paid better.
@AilurusNova tpeople see the top earners 0.1% of the userbase and around 1% to 3% of the userbase making a living wage $40k - $100k everywhere on social media because most of those models are run by some agents doing marketing for them. This kind of shit makes them think they can do it too
@sdmnfcupdates Still not addressing the way he left, most of the people understands his reasons of wanting to leave but just dipping like that without letting u guys do a proper sendoff was probably what everyones mad about really
@ammalusty Will never understand those people, they think when u say living wage it means u should be able to buy a mension, lambos, 3-4 vacations a year or something when all people want is to be able to pay the bills and have some money leftover.
@JakeArkinstall @Sai_Ishaya_ Also it would be really impressive if the gov somehow manages to fuck up adding slip roads to the existing A421 and expanding Wixams station. The scale is very small compared to hs2.
@JakeArkinstall @Sai_Ishaya_ Similar setup but not quite the same Gov isnt paying for the park Universal is spending ยฃ5bn of their cash. The Gov is spending ยฃ474m on the A421/rail upgrades, and the other ยฃ838m is held back in grants. Universal doesn't get a penny of that until the park is open.
@AnthonyAvonArt they cant do shit either when all it takes is one country to veto and the proposals goes down the drain. Only thing they can hope for is to rile the people up to take a stance against who they voted for to make the right choice
