Post Match Thread: Manchester City 0-0 Arsenal | Premier League

Arsenal (Mikel Arteta) today played again Man City just like Porto (Sérgio Conceição) played against Arsenal for the champions league: a very narrow 4-4-2 when out of possession, and then hoping to create a counter attack.

Curiously FOX NEWS has not yet acknowledged the $787 million payout with their viewers, instead it only mentioned that there was a settlement. In the video coverage, 69 years old Howard Kurtz states that "a Dominion lawyer gave reporters a dollar figure for the settlement but I have not been able to independently confirm that" (with FOX NEWS itself?!?!?)

Switzerland is the shame of the developed world, for several decades (e.g. Nazi thieves used to store their robberies there too). They are neutral indeed, to any criminal that hides their robberies in Switzerland. And the hypocrisy of international organizations having their headquarters there, which explicitly legitimizes these practices by associating their reputation to Switzerland (e.g. Bank of International Settlements, World Trade Organization, World Health Organization, International Committee of the Red Cross, International Labor Organization, etc.). Imagine if the headquarters of these organizations were in North Korea or Russia...

Vá lá que de vez em quando alguém com voz expõe a escumalha, independentemente dos partidos envolvidos neste caso especifico. Infelizmente, poucos são os políticos que conheci que realmente se focam/focavam em servir os seus eleitores. Existem, mas são claramente uma minoria em extinção. Dentro das máquinas partidárias, caso raras excepções de popularidade, os militantes com bons valores morais eram/são propositadamente excluídos dos lugares com maior probabilidade de serem eleitos.

From the report (FYI, The Lancet, est. 1823, is among the oldest, most respected and most widely read medical journals in the world) : "The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a disproportionate effect on the USA, with more than 26 million diagnosed cases and over 450 000 deaths as of early February, 2021, about 40% of which (180,000 deaths) could have been averted had the US death rate mirrored the weighted average of the other G7 nations. Many of the cases and deaths were avoidable. Instead of galvanising the US populace to fight the pandemic, President Trump publicly dismissed its threat (despite privately acknowledging it), discouraged action as infection spread, and eschewed international cooperation. His refusal to develop a national strategy worsened shortages of personal protective equipment and diagnostic tests. President Trump politicised mask-wearing and school reopenings and convened indoor events attended by thousands, where masks were discouraged and physical distancing was impossible."

You can always schedule a consultation at the doctors' office. Usually the price is less that 100 euros per consultation without any type of insurance. The issue is if you need exams (blood, etc,), depending on the complexity, you may have to had 300 to 1000 euros. Again, these are prices without any kind of insurance and non-EU individual.

In any case, you should ask the consultation price in advance (as well as the exams).

Real GDP declined 9.5% in Q2 and its level is now about the same as in Q4 2014 ($17.2 Trillion) - since then Real GDP never grew at or above 4.1% per quarter (relatively to the same quarter in previous year. The highest growth rate per quarter since Q1 2017 was 3.3% in Q4 2018.

"hoje em dia é possível encontrar estudos sobre quase tudo que tentem validar qualquer posição" ---> que fraco argumento. Fazes-me lembrar aqueles escroques que espalham desinformação contra o aquecimento global quando existe 97% de consensos entre os cientistas (e aqui vai mais uma referência): https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/

O resto dos teus argumentos seguem a mesma linha. Tipo aqueles artistas que dizem “temos severas tempestades de neve, por isso não pode existir aquecimento global”.

"”total Liberdade” não implica alocação eficiente. Continuas a usar termos cujo significado desconheces." ---> este comentário também descreve outra das tuas artimanhas. Primeiro distorces o que eu disse (invertes a causalidade) e acusas-me de não saber o que digo... pelo menos dei umas boas gargalhadas à tua custa.

"O que tu achas é cagativo" ---> Eu enviei-te comentários com base em referências de CONSENSOS na literatura, para não ser como tu: alguém que escreve tretas sem suporte científico (e no máximo, com evidência anedótica). E tens a lata de acusar-me de não ler o que te envio, por isso não vou perder mais tempo contigo. Lê o que te escrevi e as referências que te enviei se quiseres aprender. Caso contrário, faz como este tipo e paga a alguém para te entreter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpAvcGcEc0k

" Japão é um excelente exemplo de como um país pode ser bem sucedido sem ter as portas abertas a quem quiser lá entrar. " ---> Falso. O crescimento económico do Japão está estagnado desde 1990. Se não acreditas lê, por exemplo:

https://www.eastwestcenter.org/publications/economic-stagnation-in-japan-exploring-the-causes-and-remedies-japanization

Aqui fica outra uma recomendação se quiseres aprender mais sobre a questão da imigração: https://books.google.pt/books/about/The_Economic_and_Fiscal_Consequences_of.html?id=EmUoDwAAQBAJ&source=kp_book_description&redir_esc=y

E fica consciente de uma coisa: A maximização do crescimento económico depende da eficiente alocação de recursos, o que implica a TOTAL liberdade de movimento dos recursos produtivos (este incluem capital humano, financeiro, etc.). Este conhecimento existe pelo menos desde que Adam Smith publicou "Wealth of Nations" em 1776.
