Managers are latter. They don't do much work or deliver any work that is critical to the company to operate. They are very good at corporate speak and climbing.

In US you have to pay tax as well as pay extra for insurance. The insurance is not a full insurance as well. There is copay and a certain value below which insurance does not even start. Its a scam.

Healthcare IIRC is free in China. I am not sure whether something changed or not but it was free of cost.

There is a ceasefire in Gaza according to Rashida Tlaib, Jill Stein and Kshama Sawant.

It's the other way round IMO. It's incredibly racist but the misogyny is even more. I have lived and traveled in US and the racism exists outside of major cities but misogyny is universal. Even in liberal cities you can be sexist in the open, in the hiring practices etc.

Yes. Quebec city to Toronto is one straight line and building a high speed railway on a straight line is damn easy. Costly but engoneering wise there are not much challenges.

His line of thinking is that other than US no one can absorb Chinese production. Which means either China have to budge or they have to go to deep recession or listen to orange babboon's demands. The fact is China have stockpiled for this situation and there is a very high chance that they will move towards Taiwan and shift the economy to wartime. I dont think US can win a war against China but orange babbooon is so confident on US ability to win a war against China in Chinese waters all alone without NATO/ India/Russia etc and along with Australia and UK.

The best alternatives to most corporations are worker cooperatives. Anarchist communes have implemented this in past during Spanish civil wars etc. Modern day equivalents are things like REI.

The biggest problem with our country is the damn supply chains. We need to tear down the north south(CAN->US->CAN) supply chains we had in place until now and replace them with East->west supply chains. To get an aluminium can, we export raw aluminium and US makes cans and sends it back to us. They have been taking us for a ride. We get nothing in return. Hopefully Carney is able to incentivize industries which would let us move production back to Canada. Elbows up!
