The economy of the most advanced nations is changing, and whereas central banks and their inflationist plans were once a boon, they now hold back society from becoming more egalitarian, super creative, and spiritually enlightened; they perpetuate a dark age of big dumb cooperations, big dumb government, and consumerism (which is, in itself, big and dumb).

Of Plumbers and Time

I just had a little debacle with my plumbing. Solution?

a phone call, wait 30 minutes, a knock at the door, two plumbers, 15 min, done.

My landlord auspiciously asked me, "In your country, do you need a certificate to do this, to fix the water?" I nodded, she shook her head and smiled a Thai ashamed-for-you-smile.
