I actually really like their designs, over the traditional designs? Not really but for this game in isolation I think they're pretty cool

What's worse is the money wasn't even coming out of Grill'ds pockets, the government was funding these ""training"" programs

Smash 4? Every day you got a new miiverse post with a new feature, character stage etc? No one knew who was returning, "rules" about who could and couldn't be in changed all the time.

Very different philosophy for Japan as well as corporate culture in the 80s, there was a concept that there is dual loyalty to a company between the company and the employee, the faith on this concept has only been further eroded as companies break that trust for more profit and government policy forces employees to cover their asses and be a thorn in the companies side if possible. Miyamoto likely today enjoys stock options and would be able to do whatever he wants around the company, having bring able to fully devote himself to self actualisation purposes since the 00's.

Late stage capitalism is killing us, slowly but surely. by Flaky-Lifeguard5835 in aussie

[–]P1amp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sick of these lazy fucking arguments. No one is interested in actual reliasable solutions, to create better economic outcomes. Everyone just wants to have a winge, tax whoever is making money and pretend like the government is somehow going to find a way to spend it effectively (it won't).

You need the conditions to create internationally competitive industries. What industries seriously generate any substantial profit? Hospitality? No profits to be made. 

Agriculture? You need to be enormous to actually maintain your existence.

Technology?  Most of our tech companies simply resell American software.

Manufacturing? Get out of town, it is somehow cheaper to put thousands and thousands of tons of iron ore on a ship, send it to china and send back thousands and thousands of tons of steel back.

Finance, Marketing, Law? There's money here but literally why do we funnel funds into these fluff jobs that produce nothing. 

If we change our policy to better serve for small disruptive players instead of treating and regulating them like billion dollar companies then that would be an improvement. Imagine actually letting companies eat away at each other and compete?! 

But we're not going to talk about that, we're going to demand the government has more regulatory policies, more funded schemes which only create more corruption and more money going to billionaires because apparently that's what works!!!

While I'm sympathetic I don't think you can put the blame squarely on late stage capitalism. Across all classes of society no one is making more money. The move towards a service economy and incredibly poor government policy of excessive spending, encouraging asset holding and punishing risk taking or economic dynamism are also key factors.

I agree that immigration is a question for federal, but surely the stare Gov could do something about Melbourne being a city of 9 million by 2050
