2/ The Sparkassen-Landesbanken (translation: Savings banks and regional banks) are local public banks that are very old and unique inventions of Germany. They were first started in 1778 and have always been highly tied to government oversight and responsibilities to their local constituents. They are most concerned with economic growth and stability in each of their own localities and have mandates for social goods. For example, they support local sports clubs, museums, education initiatives and other social projects which contribute to stabilise social cohesion. They are least concerned with maximizing returns to shareholders or executive bonuses due to their public ownership structure. According to German law, they cannot be privately owned.
2/ On July 18, after declaring “Crypto Week,” President Trump signed into law the GENIUS Act, in a major legislative win for the burgeoning cryptocurrency lobby. Two other bills keenly supported by the industry, the CLARITY Act and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, also passed the House this month and are now awaiting a vote in the Senate. Together, these bills promise to turn an industry once relegated to the shadows into an important part of the American economy.

2/ Irish nationalism is at risk of retarding their development and cohesion by gravitating toward the American-centric, right-coded ideology of MAGA libertarianism. It offers a tantalizing temptation for Irish nationalists to imbibe in order to receive perceived wealth and power. Yet this reward is elusive and the most likely outcome would be severing Irish nationalists from their historic tradition, authentic ideological goals, potential popular appeal, and allowing Ireland to be whored out to globalists.
2/ “Ireland was a dull and grey backwater until the 1990s when progressive secular liberalism, in both its social and economic facets, catapulted Ireland into high development levels.” This is a conventional narrative in present-day Ireland.
2/ In 2015, China opened the National Exhibition and Convention Center. It is the largest convention complex of its kind in the world. It hosts China’s International Import Expo which seeks to encourage foreign countries to export more to China.
2/ Irish citizens are concerned with the unprecedented scale of immigration into Ireland and the consequences of it. Denmark and Sweden are similar.
2/ Brian Boru was born in southern Ireland in 941 AD to one of the leading clans. His father was the King of Dál gCais and King of Tuadmumu which is approximate to the modern day counties of Clare and Limerick. As a younger son, it was assumed that he would go into the Catholic priesthood and was sent away to learn under monks. “He learned to read Greek and Latin. He memorized the careers of Caesar and Charlemagne, studied the tactics of Xenophon's calvary and the deployment of the naval fleet of Xerxes."[1]
2/ The connotation of colonization today is not simply one group of people moving from one place to another. It is, instead, focused on a native people being displaced and subjugated by a foreign people justified through force. It would be incredible for any right thinking person to endorse such an activity.
2/ Ireland pays the highest electricity bills in all of Europe, and the country’s diesel and petrol prices are also rising.
Yoga doesn’t have to be about anything. Look at the average army handbook for warm ups. There is a direct line from that to the 19th Swedish guy that excludes India yet has 80% the same movements maybe with more rigidity
2/ Adam Smith. Karl Marx. Two economists that tower above all. The former represents capitalism and the latter socialism. Their writings are continuously poured over and examined. One cannot talk about mainstream economics without being derivative of these avatars. However, their… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… 
2/ Irish nationalism is inherently linked to history. It requires a historical understanding to define identities and evaluate events. It is primarily concerned with the native Irish Catholic nation’s struggle against foreign English Protestant empire on the geographic island of… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Very interesting to read up on in light of this showing the culmination of a transition away from this 
The demand for all medical services and products has gone up because are population is older, fatter, and sicker than ever and willing to use all medical interventions with major revenue happening in 75+ cohort. High demand low supply... you know the rest
The Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) was founded by George Williams. He was concerned about the lack of healthy activities for young men in major cities; the options available were usually taverns and brothels.
2/ Rather than myopic theoreticians, this is for practical economists interested in action. Just like the full stack developer — a developer that has mastered all areas of coding — the full stack economist is one that's mastered all areas of the economy.
