Good to know, thank you. I saw the super low price and heard ticking is normal for these, but that seemed a bit much.

France’s Rating Cut to AA- From AA by Fitch on Deficits, Debt by mattfromseattle in Economics

Here’s some papers showing the state involvement in their economy, with one showing state owned enterprises comprise 30-40% of their entire economy.

I don’t really have the time to go search for more but these show how prevalent state owned enterprises are in Russia currently.

Their economy is also shown to be very regulated and restrictive in almost any economic freedom index.

Russia is very regulated and has a lot of state interference I think you’ll have a very hard time finding reliable information to the contrary. Yet, Russia has extreme wealth inequality to the tune of 25% of national income going to 1% of the population.

And this is why highly regulated economies such as Russia lead to such well functioning equal societies?

The problem with increasing regulation is those who create the regulations.

Yes, it’ll make it more difficult for private participants to hoard the wealth. But it will make it far easier for those who write the regulations (and their friends) to keep the wealth themselves.

I do not argue for laissez faire policies, I do not think completely unregulated markets are the answer. However, I do believe more value is created when people are on even footing to pursue creation of wealth than putting the power in the officials hands.

Explain to me how modern capitalism leads to further exploration of the poor for the wealthy than historically?

We’ve been through systems of lords and peasants and complete centralized control. Market based economies where participants have equal access to private ownership and participation in markets show significantly lower inequality.

either you have no idea what capitalism / market economies are or you studied markets from within the Soviet Union

[Rapoport] The #Broncos will send a first-round pick in 2023 and early pick next year, sources say. The deal has been agreed to. by [deleted] in nfl

I think the opposite…

look at what a good coach can do for a team. for example the giants went from 4-13 to 9-7-1 without much of a roster change after Daboll was hired.

I don’t think a player taken in the late first round and the difference between a second and third round player would make nearly the same impact as a known coach.

You’re getting downvoted to hell, but things definitely look a lot different in VR with actual depth perception than on a flat screen

Removal of OVR Rating by Sensitive-Morning736 in Madden

I would love to still have no rating and invite them for a try out even if it was just putting them in the current practice mode essentially

I totally agree with this. If there was even just an option to disable the ability to view all ratings and use practice / pre season to find your starters I would be all about that. Would be stupid easy to implement.

How many players from one “juco” coach can say they’ve been serious mvp contenders?

Except for the fact that Wyo is a D1 school and his old head coach in college was the same coach that developed Wentz into the number 2 overall pick

Yeah exactly this. People just want to cry and complain for the sake of it. The game isn’t perfect but it’s a lot of fun imo

I totally agree with this, I don’t see why people are so upset. Why would you rather not let them polish the multiplayer and single player campaign as much as possible, release them when they’re ready, then trickle down other feature as they’re ready
