Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

That's because Masa was the most archetypal Finnish man.

Speaking of election year, NC turned their boat about turning the minimum required nurses per elderly patient (which is 0.7, what some experts consider very low) to law when it became clear to them that they were pretty much alone in their resistance and thus painting a big target sign on them for other parties to score against.

Except they didn't because Orpo wrote a blog post (that he has refused to elaborate on) where he says they want proper care to be defined in a way that is not a strict amount of nurses per patient, i.e. we are back to square one and "ihminen ei ole desimaali."

I am enjoying the bright-eyed political journalist takes that "Kokoomus is struggling against giving the impression that they might care more about the profits of private healthcare companies than the welfare of seniors." Perish the thought.

At least Matti earned his place as a cultural icon, and wasn't actively harmful to more than a few people at a time.

The results of the one year basic income experiment were released today, and so far results point out that there are no discernible effect on unemployment, but at least people were happier and more optimistic. So you can either see it as a huge failure or a more humane social security.

It's more humane toward the unemployed healthy while utterly throwing the disabled, especially the mentally ill, under the bus.

Universal basic income is a subsidy for landlords and nothing more.

no kings, no gods, no masters but a comfy chair and no socks
Introducing hard-rear end rent controls which makes profiting of rents less viable and doing some serious public-sector housing construction would gently caress up landlordism, which is the thing we need.

The easiest way to create a less oppressive benefits system is to award benefits by notification, and later do the numbers on those.
