<p>>anticipating danger and mitigating it and preparing for it becomes a full time job<p>For most of humanity's history, these tasks weren't so labor-intensive. So, evolutionarily, perception of these tasks evolved as a form of relaxation, not a job.<p>It is like you have a full time job of every waking hour, but that job on 80% consist of scrolling tik-tok, hanging out with friends and playing sports</p>

<p>Look, I'm not suggesting we do anything bad to Americans and Europeans. Just let them pay their fair share to those they've driven into poverty.<p>Or do you enjoy the suffering of billions of people working for less than 50 cents? Americans and Europeans only need to share with them what is let say above $5, and then we can get almost $2 for EVERY worker on Earth.<p>It is necessary to at least slightly limit one’s greed and show compassion to other people who are in an extremely vulnerable position.</p>

Happiness, corruption index, Gini, Quality of life, healthcare, education, carbon.<p>I don't understand. Are you suggesting deporting all migrants to improve the statistics to Denmark's level? But that's impossible in our legal system. We've been actively importing culturally incompatible foreigners for decades now, and many already have citizenship. You can't just strip people of their citizenship in an attempt to improve the statistics.</p>

<p>They won't ignore it if Americans and Europeans agree to contribute their fair share to the well-being of all the people and stop hoarding all the world's wealth to themselves. A situation where the minimum wage in some regions of the US is over $15, while in parts of India have the median wage is less than 50 cents, is an unjust absurdity.</p>

<p>We have statistics on solar performance at the huge countries levels. And it shows that, in reality, we're talking about 20x overbuild. Not 3x and not even 10x. And there is no way around it.<p>Wind and solar anti-correlation does not lowering this number. Number is still 20x, just it's more rare now, but it is still there.</p>

<p>In fact, I think this is one of the main reasons that will make the widespread use of nuclear energy possible: once your neighbor have built a reactor, you begin to share with them all the risks associated with nuclear energy, but you receive none of the benefits. This makes building a nuclear reactor more attractive to you, since you're already bearing the risks.</p>

<p>> We Europeans are very well aware that we need to strengthen our position in the world, both economically and militarily.<p>It doesn't seems like this. It hasn't even been ten years since Europeans ridiculed Trump for making such calls, and it doesn't look like anything has changed.<p>> Let's see how far China and US will go when access to the European consumer market will be resticted.<p>Why do you think access to the European market is so critical?<p>> Let's see how well China and US can adapt to modern drone warfare when Ukrainians have the expertise and can share it with the rest of Europe.<p>Ukraine is a deindustrialized country, corrupt at every level. Their experience is worth little, and if you think they understand what a drone warfare is, wait until you see China in action, which has thousands of times more capable engineers and can produce drones that are better, ten times cheaper, and in tens of thousands times greater volume.</p>

<p>In fact, it's very easy to reason them to change their minds:<p>1. Take statistics from any of these excellent solar power plants for, say, five years time span<p>2. Find the worst week in terms of energy production in these statistics<p>3. Explain to the renewable energy skeptic how this 20+ times drop in productivity will be compensated for users<p>4. The skeptic is successfully convinced and becomes a renewable energy proponent</p>

<p>Do you think perhaps the totalitarian dictatorships perverted the communist aims of the proles perhaps just a little bit?<p>No, I don't think so. From a historical point of view, everything is quite clear: after communists came to power, the most severe famines occurred even before this totalitarian dictatorship is build, as a consequence of these very tax policies, the purpose of which is "easily feed, clothe, house everyone".<p>Totalitarian dictatorship comes later, as the problem transform to "we can easily feed, clothe, house everyone, but they don't want to, so we should force them"</p>
