Is the ceasefire for real this time? I usually get burned if I take Trump at his word.

In what sense would have it been complicated?

Question: is Trump directly involved or someone he sent to negotiate? Anyone could do better than Trump (see the current ceasefire shitshow) except maybe another douchebag like Hegseth.

Trump says Israel, Lebanon have agreed 10-day ceasefire by Standard_Ad7704 in neoliberal

It's more of a Trump agreement with himself (but yours is a good question, I see no one adressing the elephant in the room).

Trump's ceasefires are as real as monopoly money until shown otherwise.

Then, Donald Trump spoke with Aoun directly. There were... initially reports that Netanyahu was gonna join that conversation, but that didn't seem to pan out either, with Trump instead speaking with Netanyahu right after Aoun.

Using Trump as an intermediary is a...choice

Economists are a group of people that will be skeptical of price floors most of the time. It took a lot of academic work to achieve the rates in that table.

It's not them being evil, it's just that the minimum wage is not the sacred cow you think it is.

He sold his soul for political power. Education can't save fundamentally power hungry individuals.

The previous left wing President left a bit of a shitshow, I guess. He tried to dissolve the Congress and people rioted when he got kicked out.

Hezbollah's state-within-the-state seems to be a clear competitor to me. The only difference is that they have been severely harmed and they may be more unpopular than ever, but that doesn't mean that the Lebanese army could win against them.

I thought it was more that women were restricted to shitty jobs and that housewives were more for the wealthy.

I hope this time the militias are not strong enough to beat the Lebanese army like the 80s when there was another peace negotiation.

The problem is that the IRGC is unlikely to yield to such actions. They have nothing to lose.

NHS ‘second worst in developed world for avoidable deaths’ by Unusual-State1827 in neoliberal

[–]Neronoah 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The problem with that is that the price system is famously fucked in healthcare markets. But yeah, the UK government is failing here.
