“A nation ignorant of the equal benefits of liberty and law, must be awed by the flashes of arbitrary power: the cruelty of a despot will assume the character of justice; his profusion, of liberality; his obstinacy, of firmness” — Edward Gibbon (who wrote ‘The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’)

Big Surprise: Europe's productivity keeps outpacing the US (our politicians don’t represent us 🤨)
Want a reality check on work culture? Compare income and hours only among the bottom 95% of earners across countries and U.S. states and the numbers are striking.
The typical Belgian earns roughly the same as the typical Californian. But works about 24% fewer hours to get there.
