I don't agree, I see Latin American people in lower ranks but not often and never met one in management position besides myself. And I can spot them from big distance and even separate them from Philippinos who tend to have the same last names.

We've got people from all the continents, but mostly Asia.

Earlier this year at work each team put out a flag for each team member, and across like 100 flags there was surprisingly little repetition besides predictably China and India. Australia was maybe in 5th place.

My team has 15 people and we joked that our only Australian was a diversity hire.

We do software development in case you didn't guess yet.

A lot is apparently not that many, and Argentina doesn't need migrants to destroy everything, the extremely racist middle class and other European migrants already did that.

While these projects will never succeed, there's a lot of money into lobbying for getting them funds for technical analysis, environmental impact and other paper work related things.

Worst things that can happen is they produce a budget out of their asses, and one month into construction there's an oopsies and actually the budget is more than estimated. 5 years in, we're 10% complete but already spent 500% of the budget. Like any airport, hospital or rail project.

Well said

In theory fully agree, but we also need to remind ourselves that there's a significant percentage of law makers that come from capitalist families.

And that's the definition of capitalist vs working class. A top surgeon makes a lot of money yes, but they are still working class because their main income is from salary.

Earning a big salary or buying some stocks don't make anyone a capitalist. Being the owner of Johnson and Johnson, hiring an administrator and not working a day in your life does. And that's the kind of people who get richer with any crisis, holds the biggest part of Johnson and Johnson profits, and pays no tax at all.

People talk about Apple only but every competitive chip designer (which Intel is not) depends on TSMC, so they all get set back.

But TSMC gets to close, and what's more dangerous for the political stability of Taiwan is that since they don't have oil they lose West military protection.
