Big difference between having a conversation and having a media company distributing propaganda.

Sounds like the USA elections

The short answer is employee owned cooperatives. Every employee has voting power.

Satan: we don't torture people with thorns and nails here. That's the other guy's department. Same for locusts, killing firstborn, you get the idea.

Yeah, if you're working it all just becomes decorations along your commute, interrupted by a few busy family days followed by more work.

Many died for the delusions of the rich and powerful.

Try dubbing for ruining native-language movies.

Classic schooled actors with theater experience are being replaced by young actors using basic conversational speech and volume. More natural but not that easy to understand.

You set up a company A. You also make a consultant company B. Company A hires very highly paid consultants from company B. Meanwhile you make paintings. You sell those paintings to company B at high prices with the money you got from company A. Now your debts are gone and company A is in debt. Fold company A and B. Add in some shell companies in the Bahamas if needed.

But, you need to have enough money to set up companies, have expensive accountants and lawyers, and to pay off some officials. You'll have to be rich to become more rich basically.

Don't follow this advice, it's just fiction.

Everyone should get the same carbon budget a year. Maybe as a separate currency. It can then be saved up or traded to use as you see fit. Want to go on oversee flights? Better buy some carbon from some tree huggers with budget to spare.

Yes and no

The Telco can say between what antennas you are. In urban areas with lots of antennas that's still pretty accurate to almost say what building. Especially with 5G the number of antennas and accuracy go upto in some cases centimeter/inch accuracy so better than GPS. That last case would be in a mall with small antenna in each corridor.

In rural areas with data switched off that's more like somewhere in that square mile, way worse than GPS.
