It’s better to jail them, what’s the point of having money in bank accounts if you can’t access it?

relying on capitalist ‘animal spirits’ has always worked everywhere surely. you can offer them free money, zero taxes they won’t invest unless they see profits.

This means that they most likely went for lighter AI models that use fewer resources, so that they run smoothly without putting too much strain on the machine.

Pretty good. Captions are one of the legitimate uses of “AI”.

Daily Mail is a rag what else is new? If Starmer had any good economic policies (he is the Prime Minister, not a candidate), the public would like him regardless of what right wing “press” says.

How can you improve the economy when no one has enough purchasing power?

Millions of Brits are unemployed or underemployed. Put them to work first.

First hire health workers, first produce and import medical equipment. “Anything we can actually do, we can afford.” and all that.

EU is willing to fuck over its own members who they consider to be ‘periphery’ (PIIGS) or having trade deficits (even though the trade deficits were keeping surplus countries like Germany alive). I think it’s ultimately a good thing U.K. left that neoliberal union. Unfortunately, U.K. politics is broken and none of the parties, including Reform are willing to go beyond neoliberalism.

Now that Germany doesn’t have many markets to export to, it is suffering too.

This is bad analysis. Most of the negative effects of Brexit could’ve been avoided had the British Government taken a greater role in the productive economy. Germany and the EU countries aren’t doing exactly great either.

EU itself is a fundamentally neoliberal institution, the whole concept of the Euro was built on the market determining how much the Government spends.

Brexit is something liberals can hammer on to mislead the public. It is neoliberal policies that is the problem.

That contrast is just

I would really prefer US to have an “isolationist” (improving domestic living standards, remove sanctions that prevent other countries from conducting trade with one another, don’t help with genocide etc) foreign policy. Trump isn’t that despite what he claims.

I would rather the CEO be jailed and made to work, but that requires a state willing to do it. “Murder” is the next best thing and can be done by anyone.

yes please collapse EU, it’ll be good for everyone, especially the victims of austerity. look at how bad Germany is doing, not even the ‘core’ countries are doing very well even GDP wise.

Yea if state companies act like private ones then what’s the point? The point of nationalizing rail is to allow it to run “losses” (economic stimulus for the people)

the ticket price can be set to zero if the Government desires, obviously this may result in high demand and tickets selling out quick so a non-zero but low price would be better. the ticket pricing should instead be seen as a way to reduce excess demand deter people from taking unnecessary train rides, not to generate revenues.

This doesn’t have to be done through pricing. Distance/stop/trip quotas (a form of rationing) also works in some cases.

unfortunately, the Government sees ticket revenue as a way to get a surplus on the income statement.

“At a time of severely strained public finances, we are keen to learn whether we can use money more effectively and more efficiently to tackle deep-rooted societal problems like homelessness,” said Michael Sanders, professor of public policy at King’s College London, which is leading the trial.

Every one of these economists should be made homeless, jobless and their assets frozen to see how they handle it.

Why is it that private finances are never talked about? Not corps but people, especially workers (and that includes involuntarily unemployed).

Other countries (eg India) copied different aspects of the Soviet constitution. Learn something from it. And what the other commenter said.

Europe including U.K. in the 1960s-1970s had such an implicit job guarantee btw, though not as a right.

Just look at how the living standards in the west have declined since the dissolution of USSR and rise of neoliberalism. See https://redsails.org/concessions/

A universal Government job guarantee, 40hrs a week, you can choose less hours if you want and you get paid minimum wage if you do atleast 30. Government can put the people to work directly or into training/apprenticeship. Have it be a legal right, see article 40 Soviet constitution.

Pop the housing bubble, landlords have too much power; build more social housing etc. Don’t cut pensions and increase spending on NHS drastically to compensate for decades of austerity.

Of course, none of that is going to happen because U.K. because its political system is at a dead-end.

There are stations with no public toilets? What a shithole.

It’s this
