I actually know an art history major.

holy shit a liberal economist thinks globalization isn’t a big deal? im shocked

So why is Germany not experiencing this major loss in manufacturing employment? There is a r of .001 between the major manufacturing countries and manufacturing job loss. In the US it was opening up of China in 2001 that caused US manufacturing jobs to fall off a cliff.

It does not even matter if they believe its true or not. Trump talked about this and other issues that matter to people living in rural and smaller size markets while Clinton ignored them and their issues. Add to this its labor and Union labor specifically that was the backbone of Democratic party support in working…

I know the joke but look at the end of the path for poly sci which is a legal career and how that field is all but dead. Law school applications keep dropping. Only JDs from T14s are worth any a damn outside of maybe 1 school in state. More and more of the entry level work is being either offshored to India or…

Bullshit its the machines and not trade policy as the primary driver of lost US manufacturing jobs. Manufacturing Job loss across the 20 largest devolpoed countries has an R of .001 which is about as random as you can possibly get. If it was automation there should be a tad bit stronger than competetly random across…

We do not have “Free Trade”, nor have we. Some examples:

LOL. This article seems to have 3 main points:

I will never stop laughing about my “free market” libertarian friends who whine about American jobs leaving for Mexico/China/Vietnam...

This is just Hamilton doing what people do. Jumping to the side that is the opposite of his antagonist. So, while I’m not sure that he was pro-globalization last year, I’d be he wasn’t.

And the driving that is in it is powerfully, powerfully stupid.

If Blockbuster still existed, it would be a great public service to go into every one of them and replace the DVD inside all the Drive covers with Ronin. Then you’d have something.

Not nearly enough people point out that Drive, while generally sucking, also has very little actual driving in it.

This. It’s not just factory workers. I’m an architect and we have to send our labor-intensive renderings overseas because clients won’t pay what it costs us to do them. First we sent them to China, then it was South Africa. Yes, apparently there’s quite a market of computer-renderers in South Africa. This does nothing…

Here, a home for you and your opinions.

“Drive” fucking blows.

Shut up....

This is an awful opinion.

BUT HE LISTENS TO METAL ISNT THAT BONKERS?!

God, I hate the absolute fuck out of Lars and the Real Girl. Fuck that phony, quirky small town, enabling bullshit. I ran across it on television just yesterday and let out an audible “Aw, fuck no!!!” that my SO ran in to see I’d accidentally cut my hand off or something. I pointed to the screen and she said “Oh....”.…

You mean Reagan-Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama’s? Cause yeah.
