Something like this. So for each percentage point, one gets $1.39 in return. This is simplistic. You don't get a more GDP just by rising taxes, BUT countries with good public services creates a working environment where people are more productive. Starting point for a doctorate in Economy?

Playing with "AI" is fun. Try to get ChatGPT to draw a full, I mean FULL glass of wine. Ends up with a flying saucer on top of an ALMOST full glass. :D

Netanyahu, USA and Hamas has been the main stumbling blocks for a lasting peace in the Midle East. Let't put pressure on them now to finally get a two state solution!

3/3 The real argument is that if we remove human rights from some ("illegals") we remove them from all! Sometimes deportation is blocked based on the legislation and sometimes they are justified based on it. Further that the numbers blocked through the ECHR legislation is negligible.

Bad translation of the first verse and chorus of an Norwegian antifa song from the 70's. Still I think it gets the point across

We must never forget 21.8.1968. We mus never allow Putin to do the same to Ukraine! We must never allow Israel to do what they are doing on the West Bank and in Gaza. It is all examples of the same!

21.8.1968 Sovjet tanks rolled into Praha. We "all" (well I was only 13 so I started a few years later) protested. This poem was written by Edward Hoem and the melody made by a sommer camp in 1976. ChatPGT has made a few spelling mistakes, but I think it is good and important to remember!

I'm sick and tired by the mantra that all migrants come to the UK [and they only come for the benefits]. It is a Xenophobic lie! A handfull of countries and the UK has less than average net migration. Create safe routs and stop demonising people in distress!

Still one of my favourite birthday cards I have got for my wife. I'm sure I'm as annoying as ever. I'm sure I won't change. Hence, one better enjoy the ride!
