  • Less unions in this case and more since nursing is governed by Boards that come from the profession it’s very hard to have regulatory capture from outside the profession. There’s places with strong unions and they’re great but that’s far from universal. And no BON is going to accept this shit as standard of care which means you really might lose your license once some “monitored” manic person goes off their meds with nobody paying attention and drives in circles in a city naked without drinking water all while you’re charting that they’re monitored. And no nurse wants to lose the ability to practice for some shit ass employer.






  • So the thesis of this piece is the government picking winners and losers in the auto industry through opaque mechanisms should terrify you because you should believe in total free market capitalism.

    There’s plenty I don’t agree with regarding this administration’s trade or industrial policy. This reasoning though, ain’t it. It ain’t even new with this administration. I’m not getting the vapors over corrupt auto industry protectionism. And I’m certainly not concerned about whatever lib shit this guy is wound up about.





  • All of the clay gets compressed which means the water can’t drain into the ground anymore and the underground drainage canals get damaged. And then the city turns back into a fucking lake after it goes between drought and flooding because the only way to create a surface water reservoir is to turn the now sunken city back into a goddamn toxic and polluted lake/marsh. That or attempt to geoengineer it into a desert which also defeats the purpose of human habitation. Eventually “fixing” the problems will become more expensive than what they’re worth for more development but nobody really knows where that inflection point lies for the valley of Mexico.





  • Because the US cannot both declare freedom of navigation as the most important part of the straight while also blockading non-US allies which they’ve explicitly threatened to do. If you approach it from a realpolitik angle like you are right now, then it justifies Iran’s actions in closing the straight from that very perspective. The US will not get to have it both ways. Either Iran was justified in closing the straight in response to US aggression or the US is violating international law and general principles of trade.
