Como ha comentado CHOSEN, aún es un intento de que cambie lo mínimo.https://www.jimcollins.com/books/how-the-mighty-fall.htmlFase 4 de la caída de las empresas, algo que es extrapolable a este asunto también. Cuando ya no puedes ignorar al elefante en la habitación puedes elegir entre asumir el problema y afrontarlo desde lo básico, o buscar soluciones milagrosas. Que en el fondo no deja de ser una estrategia psicológica de evitación.¿Dónde está el plan para relanzar la natalidad? Que inevitablemente acarrearía la muerte de El Pisito y dejaría el lujo para mansiones y lo que realmente sea más que una vivienda básica.Y podríamos hablar también de una formación exigente en vez de regalar los títulos, permitir estudiar y currar tranquilo al capaz sin marearle con cuentos y bobadas... Y tantas otras cosas.¿Ha cundido ya la sensación de que así no podemos seguir? Pues entonces nuestra respuesta tiene que ser "bien, has dado un paso adelante pero no es suficiente, ahora tienes que afrontar la necesidad de cambios radicales y de olvidar lo que se hacía hasta ahora".Y este duelo va a llevar años. Lo malo de esto es que es un tiempo que no tenemos. Es difícil vender ahora acciones duras, sangre sudor y lágrimas que diría Churchill, pero es eso o acciones durísimas más adelante. El cuento de siempre cuando hay que afrontar algo incómodo.
No sé porqué teneis la manía de sufrir por sufrir y desear lluvias de fuego y azufre.Ahora mismo un rebajón inmobiliario no dolería nada, un montón de peña vería sus sueños de millonario por ingresos pasivos se desvanecerían y punto pelota, alguno lo mismo se queda muy pillado, pero la inmensa mayoría verían sus fantasias desaparecidas a la vez que los ahorros. Y punto pelota.La UE sigue siendo un gigante compuesto de enanitos, pero un gigante al fin y al cabo. Hace no mucho se planteo el problema fundamental de la dependencia exterior de los combustibles fósiles. Acabamos de pasar del 50% en "renovables".Mientras la gente se peleaba por chemtrails y chuletones al punto. Que en lo que queda es que la ni la industria ni la gente quiere abandonar el coche. Pero a la fuerza ahorcan, ni la industria puede vivir de utilitarios ni la gente puede moverse por grandes ciudades en coche. Pum, la UE empieza a mover el tema del tren, y se empieza a mover el tema del tren en europa. La industria OK con el tema tren.Si la UE pone proa al pisito en dos años lo tiene donde quiere.

Nuclear Risks and The End of Empire with Jeffrey Sachs | TGS 140https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3LMQBL_pok
El episodio titulado "Nuclear Risks and The End of Empire" en el podcast The Great Simplification con Nate Hagens presenta una conversación con Jeffrey Sachs, un renombrado economista y profesor de desarrollo sostenible. La discusión se centra en el papel de Estados Unidos en los conflictos globales, particularmente en la guerra entre Rusia y Ucrania, y el peligro creciente de un conflicto nuclear.Sachs argumenta que la política exterior de Estados Unidos ha evolucionado hacia un enfoque de "dominación total" o Full Spectrum Dominance, lo que implica ejercer control militar, económico y político a nivel global. Esta estrategia, según Sachs, ha llevado a un aumento de tensiones geopolíticas y ha incrementado el riesgo de confrontaciones nucleares, especialmente en el contexto de la expansión de la OTAN y la rivalidad con Rusia y China.La conversación también aborda el declive de la hegemonía estadounidense y cómo el mundo necesita transitar hacia un sistema de gobernanza global más cooperativo y menos centrado en el dominio unilateral. Sachs critica las intervenciones militares de EE.UU. en múltiples regiones y plantea la necesidad de cambiar el enfoque hacia la diplomacia y la sostenibilidad para evitar una catástrofe nuclear(The Great Simplification)(resilience)(Poddtoppen).Este episodio ofrece una reflexión profunda sobre los peligros de la escalada militar y la posibilidad de construir un orden mundial más pacífico.
2023: The American Dream Now Costs $3.4 MillionThe classic "American Dream" including two kids, a house, and car costs more than most make in a lifetime.Hiranmayi Srinivasan · 2023.12.05The American Dream now costs $3,455,305—that's the estimated lifetime cost of common milestones including marriage, two children, homes, healthcare, cars, and education. The American Dream was one of Investopedia's top searched terms of the year, and is typically used to refer to major aspirational events and purchases like buying a home and car, getting married, having kids, and economically prospering. But rising costs have made the typical "American Dream" out of reach for many. In fact, the average lifetime earnings of Americans across all education levels is approximately $2.3 million[1]—that's over one million short of the estimated cost of the American Dream.Weddings, Kids, and College TuitionThe phrase "American Dream" has typically included marriage and two kids, and for those who choose that path, the average cost of a wedding and engagement ring is about $35,800 as of 2022, according to The Knot.And when it comes to starting a family, the price tag gets even heftier, from hospital bills to college tuition. A hospital birth will cost you an average of $5,708 out-of-pocket for two children, for those enrolled in a large group health plan. But that's just the beginning—the cost of raising two children to the age of 18 is now estimated at over half a million dollars ($576,896). If your kids are planning on going to college, the average tuition (including room and board) for sending two kids to an in-state school for one year will cost about $42,070. Home and CarOf course for many, owning a home is a major part of the American Dream. However, mortgage rates have been on the rise as the Federal Reserve has continued its campaign to cool inflation by raising its benchmark interest rate. In October 2023, mortgage rates hit 7.79%, the highest since 2000. Home sales fell to a 13-year low in the same month, thanks to high mortgage rates pricing many buyers out of the market.The average lifetime cost of a home including a mortgage with a 10% down payment and a 30-year fixed rate of 7.2% is now about $796,998, according to Investopedia's analysis.Further, the lifetime costs of buying cars for you and your family is estimated to run you about $271,330 for 10 purchases. That's for a six-year-old used car, purchased every six years of adulthood from the ages of 16 to 80.RetirementSo you've worked hard all your life to raise your family and now you're looking to retire in your golden years? You're going to need at least $715,968 saved if you're planning on living off of 80% of your pre-retirement annual income, as experts recommend. If this total sounds impossible, check out our retirement investing guides to get started. It's never too late.MethodologyThe ‘Cost of the American Dream’ is estimated from costs associated with 10 aspects of life that individuals may need or choose for themselves. It is not a reflection of all costs associated with life in the United States today, and may include elements some may not choose for themselves, as well as exclude elements that may be necessary for some. Below is a description of how each cost estimate was sourced and/or calculated.Cost of delivering two children from Peterson-KFF’s 2018-2020 Health System Tracker analysis of MarketScan data showing that average additional health spending associated with pregnancy, relative to women of the same age who do not give birth, among people with large employer coverage is $2,854. Note: for those without access to insurance coverage, the out-of-pocket costs would likely be higher.Cost of health insurance from KFF’s 2023 Employer Health Benefits Survey which reports the average premium for family coverage is $23,968 per year. Total estimate shown for family coverage per year between the ages 26 and 65 (totaling 39 years).Cost of raising two children to 18 from USDA’s 2015 Expenditures on Children by Families 2015 report which provides estimates of the cost of raising children from birth through age 17 for major budgetary components. 2015 figures adjusted to 2022 estimates using CPI data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Car costs calculated from iSeeCars’ 2023 Study where the average age of a car purchased in 2023 is reported to be 6.1 years, while the average purchase price of a 6-year-old vehicle is $27,133. According to S&P Global Mobility, the average duration of a car on the road is 12.5 years, meaning the average used car purchased in 2023 could be expected to last approximately 6 years. Total estimates shown for a used car purchase every 6 years between the driving ages of 16 to 80, estimating a total of 10 used car purchases in a lifetime; repairs and insurance not included.Costs of a lifetime of pet care from Synchrony’s 2022 Lifetime of Care study which estimates the 15-year cost of a lifetime of care for pets (between $19,893 and $55,132 for a dog, and between $15,055 and $45,790 for a cat). Totals shown include the sum of the midpoint values for one dog and one cat.Cost of college from the National Center for Education Statistics’ 2020-2021 report. Totals shown for in-state tuition for one year, plus required fees, room and board at a public institution for 2 students.Cost of a wedding and engagement ring from The Knot 2022 Real Weddings Study.Cost of a home and mortgage calculated from Zillow’s average home price estimate of $346,653 for September, 2023, as well as lifetime interest costs assuming a 30-year fixed mortgage with 10% down payment and 7.2% interest rate (average 30-year fixed mortgage rate as of September according to the St. Louis Fed).
