    The damaged stem looks like it is too scarred to grow wider anymore.

    Anyway, I think they are called Dracaena because they are like Hydras. Cut off their head, and they will grow up to 4 new heads. Also, the cut off head grows new roots and the healthy stem would have more space.

    Maybe Daenerys was shooting so much to kick a part of her off the root and let it start over with new roots?






  • I don’t know why you think anyone with capital from Joe HomeOwner to the largely female CEO’s of the worlds biggest chaos merchants are all on the same page of selling weapons?

    I don’t.

    Because of the large (growing) inequality, the majority of capitalists is not as determing as much as what the most capital is invested in. In a system of unregulated wealth concentration, we would end up with very few very rich deciders at some point.

    sell iphones and go to sleep.

    Nobody travels more than the rich. So if their sleep would be at risk, they would flee. Or they defend themselves.

    Capitalism is not a person. So don’t cherrypick.







  • we have numerous examples, UK/France/Germany in ww2

    I argued that destruction renews demand. So look at post-war economies, please. Also, during ww2 few large companies and their stake holders profited most: Ford, IBM, IG Farben, … which matches my statement about capitalism’s trend towards mono-/oligopolies and centralist decisions.

    Economists and governments may be interested in prosperous competition, but companies are not.

    Another aspect of wars is the slim future corridor (tunnel vision): Usually, investments resettle to only a handful profitable, too-big-to-fail companies, paired with an all-in mentality. Early investors win most. What else is capitalism?
