An article from the 90s explaining how in the 1980s, personal computers changed the dynamic of college vs high school workers. College grads learned how to use PCs and grew wages faster Mind you, this was when interest rates were 15pct, white collar unemployment was the highest it’s been any non covid year, general unemployment was 10pct, there was a recession, 18pct mortgages, and the start of the savings and loan industry collapse.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Details coming out about a possible U.S–Iran deal The U.S. is hinting there’s “room to negotiate” on Iran’s frozen money.

U.S. wants Hormuz reopened, wants Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile gone, and a long-term deal covering nukes, missiles, and regional proxies. Iran wants guarantees the war won’t start again, and compensation. Let's hope things move fast this week. Source: The Kobeissi Letter
