"Consumer choice" is like saying "forced bussing,” it's intentionally obfuscatory language, where "consumer choice" means quid-pro-quo business-political interests and "forced bussing" means certain races are segregated and given inferior school buildings, textbooks, teachers, food.

I have not read the book, only the article, and it seems to fit with other leaks.

That's exactly what part of the article I quoted when I shared it.

Goldman Sachs (GS) has hiked its year-end forecast for gold to $3,700, citing trade turmoil and spiking volatility. Other firms and banks have followed suit.

That's all? I'm not analyst or investor, so a few kilos of salt with what I'm about to say: I'm guessing 4000-4200.

The Israeli military said it struck and destroyed around 40 pieces of heavy machinery. Israel said Hamas used the vehicles, including bulldozers, for planting explosives, digging tunnels, and breaching fences, including during the Oct. 7, 2023 attack.

And most of the dead are women and children.

Nia Frome, the author of "Marketing Socialism," has another quick article called "Tankies" that would be perfect for you to read, IMO.

I appreciated this read, thanks.

I used to want a one world federation. Then G W. Bush happened and I saw potential problems with that. We never got a one world federation, and djt happened and I see the problems with this spreading, despite lacking a one world federation. I'm not sure what the answers are, but it is becoming saliently clear what they aren't.

And by "professional failure" they mean people criticizing.
