| schestowitz-pi3 | i shared these like 5+ years ago when it became popular | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | The term trickle-down economics was coined as a joke. A 1932 column by humorist Will Roge | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | rs, published in an America shadowed by the Depression, described how Republican politician | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | s attempted to appeal to the working class by claiming that wealth trickled from the top se | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | ctions of society down to lower levels through spending, like a wine glass overflowing into | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | those beneath it. Rogers, like most, refuted the model. Instead, he described how wealth | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | trickles upthe earnings of the poor mysteriously vanishing into the hands of the rich, bi | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | g banks bailed out by the government, while the little ones crumple. His description involv | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | ed the simplest model of water flowing down a hill, and mysteriously floating back up. Late | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | r variations brought in more appealing, flamboyant imagery as the idea moved from satire in | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | to policy. The economic model now conjures the images of shining fountains and flowing casc | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | ades of wineevery decadent frame of the roaring twenties. | Jul 14 03:00 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes of course but the, very very sadly, remain relevant. | Jul 14 03:00 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | my strategy is to lower spendings, take advantage of high interest rates, | Jul 14 03:02 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | and beat the storm | Jul 14 03:02 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but after OWS/2008 it's hard to believe anything will change | Jul 14 03:02 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | _for the better_ | Jul 14 03:03 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | except media consolidation, information warfare, and gaslighting | Jul 14 03:03 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | now we have "gig economy" | Jul 14 03:03 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | china to youths: swallow your bitterness | Jul 14 03:03 |
| techrights[sec]_ | There have been other articles about how it trickles up too. If you pay the | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | "poor" at the end of the day, they will have spent all their money on goods | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | and services provided by the rich and the rich will ahve the money at that | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | point regardless but at least it passed through the hands of the poor and | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | actually circulated through the economy unlike if it went directly to the wealthy | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Media is a bad problem now, especially since it is controled by social control | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | media and amplifies the disinformaton spread there. | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | I had a mild argument with a young person recently that seemed to be fine | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | with the idea of working for "gig" companies even though they 1) under pay and | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | 2) do that while stealing pensions | Jul 14 03:05 |
| techrights[sec]_ | youth to china: lay flat | Jul 14 03:05 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | the sweatshop chicken came home to roost | Jul 14 03:08 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | rianne does not have a firm grasp of what goes on tbh | Jul 14 03:08 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | because she does not read decent sites | Jul 14 03:08 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | but the ones which exist to "sedate" the masses | Jul 14 03:08 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | btw, suepo finished two elections this week, but names are all over the place | Jul 14 03:08 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | so nothing for TR to speak about | Jul 14 03:09 |

| schestowitz-pi3 | the important thing is health, i noticed doctorow's latest post was relatively short | Jul 14 03:09 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | i think i learned rianne to appreciate and enjoy the simpler thing, not to use up | Jul 14 03:12 |

| schestowitz-pi3 | like having a nice corner with many special teas (huge discounts) and sip them while | Jul 14 03:12 |

| schestowitz-pi3 | she does not do any social control media | Jul 14 03:12 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | yesterday i reminded her sirius wasted employees' time with social control media (slack) | Jul 14 03:12 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | /s/learned/taught/ | Jul 14 03:12 |
| techrights[sec]_ | "slack" the proprietary chat tool is more or less a marketing scam | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | and detracts from work hours; I suspect that they took the name to | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | borrow from the good reputation of "Slack" aka Slackware. Sample scenario, | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | PHB asks tech what do they think of "Slack", meaning the waste, but the tech | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | never having heard of the waste and only ever has heard of of Slackware | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | replies with praise. | Jul 14 03:14 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | 2 days ago i set up a word trap for slackware and there's almost nothing from or about | Jul 14 03:14 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | them anymore | Jul 14 03:14 |
| techrights[sec]_ | They've been buried just like VistA | Jul 14 03:16 |
| techrights[sec]_ | There are probably still mentions out there but they are buried in the searche | Jul 14 03:16 |
| techrights[sec]_ | engines and the usage has gone down because the name "Slack" is now more commonly associate | Jul 14 03:16 |
| techrights[sec]_ | d with the proprietary time-waster and thus has a very negative | Jul 14 03:16 |
| techrights[sec]_ | connotation, at least in the maintstream media | Jul 14 03:16 |

| schestowitz-pi3 | jr doctors going on long strike again | Jul 14 10:52 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | not tolerating low pay, long hours | Jul 14 10:52 |
| techrights[sec]_ | + intentional understaffing, especially of nurses and support staff | Jul 14 10:58 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | in recent years the GPs were phoninh with results | Jul 14 10:59 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | that is better done by clerical staff | Jul 14 10:59 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | to offload pressure | Jul 14 10:59 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | then i got no calls at all | Jul 14 10:59 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | same for rianne | Jul 14 10:59 |
| schestowitz-pi3 | for them, if it's "normal", why bother even contacting us? | Jul 14 10:59 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes, division of labor is very important. Having GPs do the phone calls and | Jul 14 11:04 |

| techrights[sec]_ | He is never 100% on, but some of the key points are ok. | Jul 14 11:21 |
| techrights[sec]_ | It seems he does not delve deeply into the background when preparing | Jul 14 11:21 |
