India has moved to digital voting at (almost) all levels and it has only accentuated the voting frauds. The localised frauds have become centralised, have enabled dictatorial ambitions. In a country of over 1.3 billion with miserable digital literacy, digital voting is being used to widen the already alarming democracy deficit.

CEO Pay Has Grown By 1,460 Percent Since 1978, as Workers’ Wages Stagnate
https://truthout.org/articles/ceo-pay-has-grown-by-1460-percent-since-1978-as-workers-wages-stagnate/
"By contrast, worker pay has remained relatively unchanged since 1978, rising by a mere 18.1 percent over the past 43 years"
After reading some on the EU mandate to provide a USB-C charging port, I wonder how many tech companies are only going to use it for charging and still provide other ports.
I also think that in light of USB-C issues, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Compatibility_issues , there needs to be additional wording to enforce compatibility. A new version of the standard, or a different standard. A lack of compatibility enforcement allows vendors to basically defeat the intent of the EU ruling, and leaves consumers at risk.

Lots of folks invoke Estonia when talking up #onlinevoting. They don't realise that Estonia's online voting system has holes in it you could drive a bus through. They're documented (by an internat'l team of infosec specialists) here: https://estoniaevoting.org #notonmywatch

House Democratic Leadership Designed Stock Trade Ban to Fail, Negotiators Say
https://theintercept.com/2022/09/30/house-stocks-trade-ban-fail/
This poorly titled article is referring to the House bill "To amend the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 to restrict trading and ownership of covered investments by senior government officials, and for other purposes."
The leadership of the Democratic Party is neoliberal, so they will not go against anything that benefits #capitalism.
Pennsylvania Lawmakers Prepare to Impeach Larry Krasner

The lengths that the GOP will go to act against the will of the people always makes me wonder how they continue to get elected. I know the answer always boils down to the Christian God, lies about gun rights, and unthinking nationalism, but is the USA really that dumb? The polls say we're not as a majority, but that's mostly due to concentration in urban areas due to #capitalism.

I think most of a mainstream economics education is really just about training you not to think about obvious things.
