TV watcher

You see an Iranian general get his name read on the English speaking news and immediately believe he's fucking Cobra Commander because that's what years of corn syrup and boomer-vision have done to you. This blinds you to the fact that the man was so fucking good at organizing resistance, that had he lived he would have gone down as the Iranian version of Von Stuebbens. There is an entire world of wheels-within-wheels middle eastern politics that functions outside of considerations about the USA. But because the TV man says scary words, you can't allow yourself to see anything that happens over there except through the lens of 'Israel must be the good guy since they haven't attacked us (even though they did).'

You can't begin to understand middle eastern powerplays until you accept that the US isn't a friend to any of them, but alternately an occupier, a weapon, or a convenient evil to rally your population against. These players are a lot more rational than you want to think, and it is too their advantage that you give them the mystique of 'bad guy' or 'good guy'. They've been fighting each other for millenia; the good guy is the victor.

Malthus didn't just give us the term 'Malthusian Collapse', he was the first to line out why there will always be scarcity and thus competition, since the speed of reproduction is geometric while the ability to increase subsistence is arithmetic. His theory laid the ground work for Darwin's survival of the fittest a generation later, and was so good at pointing out the failures of utopian planning that his works were banned in the USSR and denounced by the Catholic Church. And if you're going to shit all over Smith, maybe you could tell me which of his French contemporaries I should get into, since they were the only other people laying down a capitalist theory at the time. Except you aren't aware of them either, because the only thing you know about being free-market are memes and 2 sentence quotes from Rothbard or Hoppe.

Why is the most efficient option for turning fiat into alts so obtuse?

Actually i live in the American Gardens building in Manhattan and my bathroom is bigger than that shit shack you call a house.

So I didn't really know where to post this question so I guess /biz/ would be the best place.

Now that is out of the way here is my question; My boss on friday asked me if i could work at 10-6 on monday. I told him no. Nothing eventful happens satuday and i work my scheduled shift. I wake up this morning (sunday) and i have a missed call and a text saying I am "required" to work this 10-6 on monday which is tomorrow. I ask him why he is forcing me to work this shift i just declined a few days ago. His answer was "because i wont be in the building." What should I do /biz/ is this legal? Should I contest this? Should I call my union? I work in America by the way.

Monopoloies only exist from Government intervention, such as high barriers to trade or corruption or benefit specific companies with certain laws.

In a free market monopolies are naturally irradicated.
