Great news. Hopefully people will choose to apply these rebates/refunds to their private pension funds and alleviate the shortfall in their governments' abilities to provision them. www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

I like to think of my self as an academi-shun - a stupid person with (more than enough) time and money to do nothing that gives other people an incentive to check their watches.

When your money (as a community) has gone to war against your kind in everyway you seek to return a favor and withhold your most creative angle - violence - because it turns back on those who inflict it. While old age comes sooner than you can think - now.

Raising kids was entertaining. After they grew up and you looked up at the bullshit world you realize that you haven't really done the kids themselves any favours by bringing them into the world - but hope they don't mind too much (fingers crossed they don't resent me for their existence).

In the backcountry there are times when you can barely discern the trail - you use your mouth by keeping it still. Sometimes the song heavy rotates and you try to stop it. On your own it's easy not to get turned and lose the trail.

Countries need to secure digital infrastructure and the pipes they run for capital. That's why Canada's banking infrastructure is relatively centralized (it has the network all along - they were there before regions had any capacity to measure local money velocity). Now of course we also have ATMs.
