The German in me hates it when a recipe calls for “1 large egg”, no you don’t understand i need to know how many grams of egg this needs. What is the precise ratio of yolk to white.

@goblinodds Disagree the first one is a factor - men will look fondly on faces too without it going further. The second one is the primary sticking point, from your view this makes it understandable from mine it doesn't, though it does make abandoning this vanity more noble.

@FungeRumples imo the apparent vanity is a combo of: - women are v people-oriented (we will also look fondly on it if someone else's face is there instead) - women's looks are insanely important and affect our lives to a kind of goofy degree so ofc we feel rewarded when we look good

Quick breakdown: 1. The inequality looks much more dire than would be explainable by competency. 2. There is evidence of elites rigging the game against entrants (which is natural rent-seeking behaviour), e.g. ultra-wealthy paying less in inheritance tax while inheriting more. 3. Therefore, the 'fairness' card that the right is playing is dangerous, because with this degree of inequality and obvious game-rigging, the left has a strong and by-definition more popular counter-argument (the one I presented initially which made you assume I'm a leftist myself). If the left wins, stifling regulations, high energy prices and high taxes will become worse, not better. Pro-growth crowd (I imagine @tomhfh considers himself pro-growth) should quit making weak, divisive and unpopular arguments, unless they don't want to win.

@sbichenko How do you go from income distribution = inequality, into more inheritance tax is more fair, into the biggest issues of import are reducing government ? If you understand our economic lifeblood is being choked from us why would you possibly ever advocate for more choking

@FungeRumples > offshore oil drilling in the north sea Yes, as much as possible as soon as possible. > reopening the coal mines on the main land No - too inefficient. I am very much pro-nuclear though!

As someone working with automation, I simply have realistic expectations of what can be automated. If you rank these 4 issues in order of importance - stifling regulations, high energy prices, high taxes and low-skilled immigration - immigration should be last, and by a large margin.

@sbichenko There is no sensible or reasonable way you can compare a country like Russia to Britain and to do so underscores my main point, this is all just rhetoric. If you believed in high automation you'd be ringing the alarm bells to stop low skilled immigration, not just 'a gap'.

Stas Bichenko@sbichenko·
Fair point. I think there's a gap between which low-skilled jobs Britons are willing to do and which low-skilled jobs can be automated. We can automate data entry, but we can't automate food delivery. We can automate warehouse jobs, but not care work. Low-skilled immigration should be filling the jobs that Britons don't want, and the technology can't automate. You can actually see the result of limiting low-skilled migration in Russia. After 2024, Russia has significantly limited the influx of migrants. The food delivery driver jobs became much better paid - higher than local averages. But native Russians still didn't want these jobs, and the industry is still dominated by migrants. At the same time, prices went up and demand went down, resulting in shrinking of the affected industries.

@sbichenko I am not talking about benefits I am talking about high automation. You said UC and UBI makes sense in high automation societies. If you truly believed that you would see the obvious conclusion that low skilled immigration must be stopped as they will all soon be jobless.

@FungeRumples Because people in the UK are not willing to work the low-skilled jobs. You assume that if you remove the benefits, UK natives will start working them. Imagine they won't — what happens next? What happens when 24 million people have no jobs and no financial support?

@sbichenko If you think we need ubi to subsidise low skill labour due to high automation why would you want more low skilled labour ?

@FungeRumples You're being very rude for someone asking questions. > Since you're looking ahead to high automation and UBI I assume one of your top priorities is ending all low skill immigration? As a market liberal, I'm against additional regulations in the labour market.

@FungeRumples You assume that I'm a socialist, but I'm strictly a market liberal. You can be a market liberal AND see why UC or even UBI can be necessary in a high-automation society, or how elites can be using policy, capital and violence to limit market freedoms.

@sbichenko Is your proposal anything more than "give me more" do you even have any limits in mind ? Its just a blind willingness to extract more out of the populace?

@FungeRumples Is it fair that if you increase your estate from £300k to £1m, your effective inheritance tax rate goes up by 300%? But if you increase your estate from £7.5m to £10m, your effective inheritance tax rate goes DOWN by 30%? gov.uk/government/sta…

@sbichenko It seems you don't, regardless of the lacking evidence. How do you balance equal opportunities with stealing the wealth of the dying ? I suppose you'd want all of the inheritance so their children don't get a head start?

@flojack300 @FungeRumples @Simmons__ I believe in equality of opportunities. Do you think that the top 10% of Britons by income had the same opportunities as the bottom 50% of Britons by income?

@sbichenko @Simmons__ Income distribution does not suggest inequality and you pretending it does gives the game away. You simply want to flatten income curves, you have no care for 'fairness' or quality of life.

Majority of all the 4, 5 and 6 bedroom homes in my area are all occupied by boomers. They spend all day from Spring to Autumn gardening. Some of them can barely bend down. I’ve no idea why they wouldn’t just sell up. Instead they complain about being unable to heat the property. Any time a home comes up for sale, it’s because someone has died. Then a lot of people don’t even want to buy them because they’ve not been decorated since 1985 and have no bath.
Lin Mei@linmeitalks

There are boomers sitting in large houses who don’t even want to free up equity or sell their house to help their own children get on the ladder. This is the level of selfishness we are dealing with. Thank god for parents like my mother She would sell her house in Tottenham tomorrow if it meant helping me…. And I would do anything to make her life comfortable- that’s what family is about. An eco system of giving. These days many boomers don’t want to help with grandchildren or finacial assistance and children don’t want to help their parents - so much selfishness between recent generations and it will get worse.
