Sigh, an efficiency commission sounds like a way to to form a group of loyalists who has the power to arbitrarily decide on policy for any government agency based on a loose definition of “efficiency”.
A group like that could simply decide that a private company is allways more efficient than a government agency, or that a deregulated market is more efficient than a regulated market.
The goal of “efficiency” is increadibly vauge, while sounding positive.
I know it sounds weird, but if a country has a legal minimum wage it removes tools from unions since companies can just tell the unions to pound sand.
Here in Sweden we don’t have any minimum wage mandated by the government.
It is negotiated between the sector unions and employers.
Also sympathy strikes are legal here.
Whenever there have been talks about introducing a minimum wage in Sweden, unions have allways reacted negatively, as it would effectively prevent them from negotiating for higher wages, and a minimum wage would easily get stuck in the past.
I know that the US and Sweden are very different, and that in the current labor market in the US, removing a minimum wage would be a disaster, but I felt as if your conclusion that minimum wage is allways bad needed a counterpoint.

Maybe take away power from the union, but the union can totally still negotiate a huge wage if it can. The union I’m part (insurance workers of the state of São Paulo) have a minimum wage, higher that the state and national one.
I hope they are doing a ton of debate prep with her. He’ll be hopped on drugs to keep him going. He may be a liar but he is also a bully and very bombastic. He doesn’t have to beat her on the issues he just has to overwhelm her.
The prevalence of 46 XY in the female athletic population is about 7 per 1000 adults, which is 140 times greater than what is seen in the general population. For context, of the 4,676 women competing at the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, we would predict ~32 women competitors would have a 46 XY
True, but largely irrelevant. There is no evidence that Khelif has XY chromosomes aside from an accusation by one corrupt Russian boxing official, made after Khelif beat a Russian boxer. They have not produced the test, said where it was done or what the results were.
I don’t understand the power of trump over this guy. Isn’t he richer than trump? Didn’t trump posted a derogatory tweet about him saying something like “he’ll kneel if I’ve asked”
If Trump cancels EV subsidies or pressures NASA to stop bankrolling SpaceX, Musk is basically fucked.
That is why Trump said that.
As with most giant corporations, if the government stopped heavily subsidizing them in many direct and many more indirect ways, they would basically collapse under their own incompetence quite quickly.
Its truly funny to watch libertarian types pretend they built their empires from the ground up, when the truth is that they basically always started from a very privileged background, more or less did shady things bordering on or actually being fraud, got some of their parent’s or parent’s friends to invest, and then grew further from massive government aid of one kind or another.
but has anyone verified this claim I keep hearing from coworkers and nosy people about going keto for 4-6 months somehow fixing it? Its a big commitment I don’t have time for right now but would be worth it if it actually works.
I was recently traveling around the pacific and 20% of all chinese, australians, and americans were coughing up a storm, not a mask in sight (other than us)
