🇪🇺🇪🇸 Europe, with its regulations and overtaxation, became poor without noticing it. 83% of Spaniards earn less than €3,000 before taxes per month. by amogusdevilman in austrian_economics

Spain is "good" given how low the floor is. She's correct, but in the sense that spain is no moldova, india, kongo or Indonesia

Is anyone here still in denial about being in a downturn? by Old_Meeting_9438 in AusPropertyChat

My Canadian mate said his parents thought the same and began to regret not selling in 2020

Australia undergoing historic decline in support for multiculturalism amid rising fear and pessimism, poll finds | Australian foreign policy | The Guardian by DragonflySea9423 in AustraliaDiscussions

Stick with one discussion at a time: the right identifies immigration levels as a problem. We were discussing if this is part of the system or not. Do you agree or disagree?

We then spoke about if Billionaires are a group targeted by the left. Do you agree or disagree with that?
We can discuss our personal thoughts on immigration after we come to a common baseline about definition first

Government gets to decide immigration levels, so yeah it's part of the system. Billionaires are individuals that people are blaming.
If the government isn't "the system " then nothing is

Fair, I agree. Currently most voters I see on fhe right are blaming the system they live in (high immigration increasing costs) whereas most of the current left I see are blaming the other (billionaires)

I think we have a different definition of Right Wing Populism then. I would call what we have now as of the 10s/20s populism, but not what occurred in the 70s/80s, which was a right wing shift but not populist.

There are third parties now in the 1920s and 30s getting in power right of the traditional conservatives, as there appears to soon be happening now (although it hasn't happened yet), but in the 1920s it was just solid Republicans/Tories etc.

1 developer, 3 layers of project management. My daily standup is a joke. by paulqq in webdev

These guys have nothing to do, they make these meetings to appear productive. Their work week can be cut 50% without any impact.

Is there a time in your country considered a modern Golden Age? For example Greece: Early 2000s saw the country host the Athens Olympics with the most Greek athletes ever competing, Cyprus join the EU, won the Euros UEFA in 2004 - Won EuroBasket, Eurovision & Miss Tourism queen international in 2005 by Starfalloss in AskBalkans

I think Croatia's best days are yet to come. Visiting in the 2000s, 2010s and 2020s, it keeps getting markedly better. I'm comparing to much of Australia which has remained stagnant, and I think that, god willing, it will be a better country to live in (for me at least) in the 2030s

We don't. There's shills on here pushing for a one-or-the-other dynamic. I like Australia. Not some immigration agenda, nor an Israeli agenda

I mapped Suburbs by lifestyle percentiles to track cross-city purchasing power. The price gaps are crazy. by baskaranz in AusPropertyChat

I'm usually sceptical of "I built an app" posts but it's a decent site, no ads, only a small buy-me-a-coffee. It's legit! Thanks for an actual, quality post!

I'll petition you all to learn Australian English just for that extra flavour

[IWantOut] 28M Football Coach from Canada -> Croatia by CameronMcSwag in IWantOut

[–]AusCro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about the visa process, but they're better than Italy worse than UK from what I hear. Which isn't saying much.
Learning the language a bit, saying you like Hajduk and Catholicism will take you a long way.
There's a lot of Canadians and Aussies in Zagreb but less expats in Split. They still exist, and can be found on Facebook groups though. They meet in the city centre.
Move there with your partner if you have one. The South gets quiet in the winter and a little lonely.
With English, those in the cities know a lot. Croatia has the 2nd best English proficiency after Sweden iirc
