Why are many businesses in democratic nations largely undemocratic?
  • There isn’t an inherent value to making all businesses democratic because very often most workers have no idea how the larger company works as a whole.

    I work for an import company. My union warehouse steward is constantly judging the financial health of the company based on the volume of boxes he is shipping. The problem is he has no idea the relative value of those boxes so while he’s bemoaning we sent out 1/4 of the number of boxes on Tuesday that we sent out on Monday he’s missing that the total value of Monday’s sales were 3x Tuesdays. In 5 years of working with the guy he has never wrapped his brain around this. Our company would be much worse off if he had a say in how it works because he simply cannot see the larger picture as those skills were never developed. This is not uncommon and I myself have been the guy who cant see that larger picture in other roles.

    Should the janitorial staff have equal says as to the executives in how funds should be allocated? Do we recognize that not everyone has the same skill set and level of skill as others?

  • Why are many businesses in democratic nations largely undemocratic?
  • Do they need to be public property or do they need to be in the hands of those working there? I’d be more inclined towards the latter as in most cases the public as a whole is not going to have an informed or educated perspective on how specific jobs/roles/companies should behave.

  • The thing is if you want to maintain rule of law then you need to follow those rules. You can’t just decide to ignore it when you want to but then pretend you have any legitimacy. That would make you no different than any other dictator.

  • You could kill almost anyone in NV as you cannot kill children in any game nor can you kill major quest givers.

    Perhaps they have reasons to not want to encourage senseless violence to NPC’s at a time when a chunk of the population clearly views others as IRL NPC’s?

  • Im not sure what the goal was here. It seems the complaint is that you cannot shoot NPCs in non-combat situations. That while one game considers taking items to be stealing whereas the other does not which the content creator seems to miss.

    Is this really about attention to detail or do they just prefer one game to the other due to directorial choices?

  • Do you think rule of law should only be maintained when both of the two major parties supports it?

    Do you think Hochul is going to win reelection? Do you think she will never be replaced? The precedent is for the NY governors that follow her. Wasn't that obvious?

  • Education Department “Lifting the Pause” on Some Civil Rights Probes, but Not for Race or Gender Cases.
  • There are actual expectations of what you should believe as dictated by the texts some of which are very clear. If you are against clothing the naked, feeding the hungry, or tending to the sick you are overtly working against the path Jesus sets in the NT.

    Perhaps it is more accurate to say these people are falsely claiming their faith as the motivation for their bigotry.

  • Gov. Hochul says she won't remove NYC Mayor Adams from office
  • The notion that he should be removed without a trial or opportunity to defend himself is in fact illegal. Hochul has to let Adams defend himself against the charges.

    The "they feel like it" would be for the next time not this situation. This is why it is important to nit create bad precedents like this

  • Gov. Hochul says she won't remove NYC Mayor Adams from office
  • And that action requires he be presented with the charges against him and he be provided the opportunity to defend himself.

    The governor cannot legally just pull him from office. These procedures need to be followed.

  • Economist Warns That Elon Musk Is About to Cause a "Deep, Deep Recession"
  • Instead of ranting about deregulation why not look at how poorly controlled economies behave? There aren’t many functioning and what few exist aren’t doing great. Humanity is not smart enough to currently run a controlled economy effectively. That might change if actual AI exists but right now we cannot do it.

    Remember the largest command economy in history, The USSR, collapsed mostly because of economic failures that were self created. The second largest command economy was the PRC who moved away from it to a hybrid system and has had greater stability since then.

  • Gov. Hochul says she won't remove NYC Mayor Adams from office
  • Im not licking anyone’s boots as I have clearly stated I want him to have a legal process which you and several others have suggested is not necessary.

    You have made a very pro-authoritarian claim as to how this should be handled

    I am making one that we should follow the rule of law.
