In Spain is quite impossible to rent any place for long term since the owners of apartments and houses prefer to rent for tourists: short term, more money. But who are these owners? Spanish, Catalans…
Same Spaniards or Catalans would prefer to employ immigrants for a lower pay and no paperwork since it is more profitable for them. Money is a lot stronger of an influence than culture.

Of course pretty much all products in Catalonia come from abroad: food, clothes, cars, electronics. I cannot name a single product that is Catalan made. Same goes for Spain overall or any other tribe. Their phones, the apps they use, the knowledge they have, research, even media, everything either comes from outside or is remixed from outside.
So what is so unique about your tribe?

How many people celebrate the holy-days today in the same way that people celebrated them 50-100 years ago?
I know that for us, coming from a very religious tribe called Romania, Christmas was more about the Christmas tree, presents, food and Coca-Cola. Oh and watching Home Alone on repeat. Nothing to do with the original Christmas “holy” day. Or anything Romanian specific either.
And so it was the case for everyone I knew. And that’s one of the many “holy” days that today have become mostly about consuming.
The forces of our trade-based society with its marketing tentacles, are transforming the culture more than any dictators and philosophers do. That you should keep in mind.

With the tax reform, I have given the money to the rich, so there is no money left for social benefits. Please think for yourself! If there was more money, I could have given even more money to the rich. Sometimes the American people are just too stupid for simple logic! 🤦♂️

Ok, y’all…some good news! The S&P index told #SpaceX Karen and the #AI bros to suck socks until they show a profit. There will be no rules relaxed, no guardrails bent. They can meet the standards of the rest of the index, or they can fuck off back to their lairs.
Why does this matter? Everybody’s #retirement plan is tied to the S&P. Swift entry into the #SP500 would have triggered $14 billion of passive fund buying for SpaceX. #OpenAI could have gained more than $8 billion, and #Anthropic could have netted $4.6 billion from similar passive buying sprees triggered by their S&P 500 entries.
This is because $7.5 trillion in passively managed funds follow the S&P 500 by purchasing shares of companies according to their proportional representation in the S&P 500 index.
This is under the radar, but very good news. Now if we can get the other indices to do the same…
