  • Why does it feel as though only the US and China (and maybe some other Asian countries) have an economic future?

  • If only it was just the public sector. I do agree with you, but the problem is cultural. It's not just the government. None of the big or smaller corporations or companies are investing either.

  • IMHO, it missed the boat on everything to do with tech, and tech is basically 21st century capitalism. The only tech in Europe are secondary services like booking.com that ultimately depend on primary services (Google Search, Youtube, Facebook Platform, Twitter, ...etc). I agree in large part with Varoufakis. Although he is "on the left" he has better investment sense than all the suits who control European capital.

  • Why Are So Many Americans Choosing to Not Have Children?

    Jump

  • Two factors that are seldom mentioned:

    1. Modern people make worse parents in many respects. They might be more caring, when they actually have children, but they have less time for children, and are more distracted by other aspects of life. And overall, the general perception is that their commitment to family is much looser than in times past.
    2. Standards are simply much higher than they used to be. People don't want to have children with whomever, and they want their children to be successful compared to their peers and that's not easy to achieve and failing that, they'd rather not have any at all.

  • Sorry for the potentially controversial question: is it normal for less attractive people to settle down with partners they don't find physically attractive?

    Jump

  • Not planning to. I asked to try to gauge whether this was widespread behaviour.

  • Germany: Alcohol-free beer sales double in past decade

    Jump

  • I like the taste of beer, but I don't like getting drunk or even tipsy, and being still single, I am out often and it honestly gets tiring to drink everyday. I don't really like drinking alcohol. I never had alc-free but next time I'll try it.
