Now do telecom companies for the same thing. This is fucking stupid, people are going to buy drugs and prostitutes through any medium. Just legalize and regulate already, but that would remove an easy wedge issue and congress can't have that. Gotta keep the people yelling at each other so they don't notice their paychecks being skimmed more and more.
How do you they didn't provide a mix of families and felons and are banking on your exact opinion (my political opponents will use this to gain power) as the actual end goal? To me it seems like a strategy of stoking internal conflicts with actions to small to qualify as a declaration of war.
The poster you're replying to is an idiot and you should disregard them; this is exactly the risk Finland is trying to mitigate. Wagner for instance has been very actively recruiting in Africa and this is a golden opportunity to sneak in military personnel of the correct ethnicity under the guise of refugees.
I'd assume more of a concern troll type but you never know, there's more gullible/naive people that need things laid out in plain terms. Not necessarily knocking the person I was originally replying to, but don't forget half the population is dumber than the average. If we have to tell people not to eat laundry detergent than I can understand some people being not grasping military strategy or geopolitics.
Didn't know about that happening in Africa but doesn't surprise me, do you know of anything else like that happening in Southeast Asia? Might find myself in that area and would like to know what to look out for besides vodka and people yelling "cyka blyat"
I don't think it's a hugely strategic location for them right now; closest is India, to a degree, as I understand they use a lot of Russian tech as part of their defense - but SEA seems to be a fading / non-acute geopolitical area for Russia
I think it's the over regulation of the industry that's causing the issues. A medical degree AND at least 1 year of residency are required to be licensed to practice, which is fine. But congress capped the amount of residency slots in 1997 due to fears of having to many doctors and hasn't raised it pretty much since. So yes, "big government regulation" and central planning aka communism has caused this issue. Those companies and individuals that are profiteering off of this situation are also to blame, but not nearly as much blame as the whole of congress.
I never said doctors were the problem, I said congress was the major cause of the problem by limiting the amount of residency slots based on incorrect predictions. Those for-profit engines do have an effect but they're just playing by the rules established by congress.
Not sure where you got conspiratorial or uninformed, here's the study that guided the decision making [1]. I will take sophomoric since I don't know a damn thing about this industry, but both left and right are recognizing the problem and trying to get something done about it which is what we need more of[2].
I came across a fairly detailed guide to travelling in outback Australia the other day. The site owner/author was an older woman in Germany or similar.
"Well, my name is Rita Amend. I live in the crowded Rhine-Main-area in Germany. Perhaps that's why I love the tranquillity of the Outback so much."
"Update: Now I am retired, Australia and the vast inland is still in my dreams. At the end of 2018 we spent our 9th holiday in Australia."
Now that I think about it, I can identify. I'm from Australia but have visited Southern Utah many times, think about it often and could write an extensive site about it.
