How abut: The truck is just plain ugly.
It looks like a refuse bin. Square back, low opening front.
When I worked in a lime quarry, we used a bin something like that shape to put all the crap and garbage in The a-frame had a bar across the top and the kiln truck picked it up worth its hoist and loaded it on the back, and hauled away the load to the dump.
What the Americans did, among others, was to convince the port authorities that they needed to demand such exorbitant levels of insurance on any ship carrying a nuclear cargo that it made the cost to shipping lines just too expensive.
When the business press brings out ANYTHING as if they have anything meaningful to say on the subject is a non-sequitur...
The business press just uses doubletalk to either support or reject the current governance policies. The super=rich ignore it, because by the time it gets into the business press it is too late and they have made their move months ago.
It is not insuring the reactor for replacement, it is insuring the entire nuclear powered ship so it can enter a port. Ships collide. Ships crash. Ships hit bridges. An oil spill is one thing, nuclear contamination of the entire port is another.
Open your eyes. It IS that orchestrated. The same line in the similar protests organized in the same fashion showing up within days of each other in different countries around the world. Someone is planning the timing of these events, well ahead of them.
The sooner the general public recognizes the pattern, educated or not, the sooner we can intervene.
Security Services already recognize this - an event happens somewhere in the world,they all go on alert knowing there will be a follow-up somewhere else in the world.
That is the problem with Canadians - we dismiss clear visionary projects too soon, just because there is 'something else' that vested interests want to protect their investment in. The Americans wanted the Seaway, and they did NOT want the Northern route because they would have no control over it. The Avro again and again and again. Canada does only what the Americans can control. I don't see anyone complaining that the super-port for ocean-going freighters at Thunder Bay spoiled the North. Still as picturesque as ever.
There is nothing 'free' about the CBC. There is no such thing as a free lunch. We get the CBC through public funds only as long as the CBC presents the face the government wants. CBC bashes China precisely because the previous Trudeau government set that as the objective. Even the CBC ombudsman made that clear to me.
Ahhh, words of wisdom from the minds of the hard-core dogmatic 'as it was, so shall it always be' cult. It depends if you are teaching history or modern wealth management.
More Western news media are owned and controlled by religions than oligarchs. CBC stands for China Bashing Corporation.
The only way to stop the spread of fascism and to fight it IS to talk about it and to make people aware of it. We couldn't stop it when I was a student in the 80's, no matter what level the protest, and we can not stop it now. We can only make people aware of it.
Or maybe the field should be less 'Ivory Tower' and more concerned with modern economics.
Compare the battle between MMT and Friedman, and all the old rules and definitions go out the window. To Friedman, it is profit at all costs, to MMT it is social well being at all costs. With MMT, productivity is irrelevant in any analysis no matter what the definition, and to Friedman productivity is irrelevant except as an input cost. Friedman would ratter get rid of all labor as a needless input cost, no matter how productive they were, and MMT would rather have full employment, no matter how low their productivity was.
If you are a student of Business Admin. or have an MBA, then the old definitions are just swept aside. it is how to make money by using money, not on how to make money by making things.
When it means 'money in your pocket', the applied meaning takes on an entirely different perspective than when it means 'marks towards graduation'.
Speaking of definitions, my pet peeve is the use of 'decimate' to indicate total or near total annihilation, when at its roots it means 'one in ten destruction'. I am told that the English Language evolves, and so to the definitions in all fields, including economics, evolve.
There is always the purely mechanical emergency brake.
No-dairy chocolate?
But I suppose it would 'work n long-distance space travel, where dairy would not exist.
