Amazon head quarter

Jeff Bezos wanted to build another Amazon head quarter. And New York was one of the options to build it. But the people there rejected as the city should have sponsored that with a lot of money.

In my humble opinion, Amazon and these other big companies are having and getting so much money, it’s not necessary that they get sponsored like that.

So we should really reject that in the future.

The same is valid with tax. They should pay taxes as they are also having a lot of benifits from the environment cities and countries are providing.

Brexit-Debakel: „Unfähig, aus Fehlern zu lernen“

Eine sehr gute Zusammenfassung, was und warum es beim Brexit so funktioniert, wie es gerade funktioniert. Und immer wieder die gleichen Fehler gemacht werden.

The dilemma of democracy

The dilemma of democracy, and a possible technical solution.

Would you give your power to an algothmic agent? How can we build trust in such a system?

The myth of money, job and marrige happiness

There is still the myth of money, job and marriage happiness.

But is that true?

It’s the question if we are always willing to behave in such a way the (sometimes unspoken) rules of the society require it.

If you are glad to live in a country that provides the basic needs for living easily, then you very often have the chance to define by yourself how you want to live. Although you still have to obey some basic rules for living together with other people in your society.

You can also compare these stories with the stories about e.g. money and societies, described by Harari.

And, BTW, this is my car, house, wife, boat,…;-)
