I wonder how much if it is companies posting "jobs" due to visa requirements for someone who is already working there. PERM requires job postings, I believe there are some similar requirements for H1B as well.

modern liberals have this interesting perspective that is essentially the opposite of “the ends justify the means” where the means are actually the ends. The problem is not the genocide or the exploitation, it’s the authoritarianism that necessarily accompanies those things. So if you were to use authoritarianism to destroy a fascist movement it is exactly the same thing as using authoritarianism to do genocide. It’s not the genocide or the destruction of fascists that is good or bad, it’s the means by which you do it.

the americans said, like two weeks ago, that the chinese system is better and instead of adopting it we're going to turn the war dial to the right.

The archipelago, roughly the size of New Jersey, produces one-third of the world’s nickel and holds around 11% of the world’s total nickel reserves. According to GlobalData, it produced 193,600 tons of nickel in 2023 out of 3.3 tons globally. Nickel is key to producing batteries for the electric car industry

The first statement in this sentence isn't correct. New Caledonia is the third largest producer in the world (roughly in line with Russia and Canada), but they don't produce one third of the world's nickel. Indonesia produces one third of the world's nickel and they're producing over 1 million tons per year.

I wonder what the sweetheart deal for the french is here. I remember their uranium deal being comically one-sided.

If skirts are good enough for caber tossing and killing englishmen they're good enough for running.

maybe its cold out, the boy is wearing pants and as science tells us girls get cold faster than boys. They're also wearing long sleeves and their complexions have lightened. This is clearly the winter 1997 edition of this textbook.
