this is a really good point
Refugees have often smuggled valuables so that they aren’t completely destitute on arrival at their destination. Sewing coins or jewelry into clothing as a nest egg for starting a new life. This is deliberate impoverishment followed by complaints about dependence on state resources.

A perfect example of capitalist incentives leading to worse outcomes is checked baggage on planes.

Mark Carney’s overall economic approach has been backward-looking: an emphasis on natural resource extraction and reliance on low-tax, market-led, small-government economic ideology that was stale in 2008, and is definitely not suited to a world of geostrategic competition.

The World Series was played outside the U.S. for the first time in 32 years this October, when the Toronto Blue Jays united fans across Canada as the country’s only MLB team. The team even became known as the “Glue Jays” before the Los Angeles Dodgers ended their thrilling postseason run.
