overview for Gsus4

Nah, some people just have other priorities... and you don't just have to sheeple through life like it's a checklist driven by peer pressure to move onto the next stage... you're fine.

Maybe those services could take a hint and create a unified platform where each partner gets a cut depending on % of their content watched.

Wasn't there a new infrastructure bill recently?

PS: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Investment_and_Jobs_Act but it doesn't mention hospitals specifically.

Even in petrostates? But most petrostates are not run by the people or for their people, so petrostates will keep being petrostates until demand for oil in EU/China/India dries up. https://www.worldstopexports.com/crude-oil-imports-by-country/

Yea, but who builds infrastructure? Where I live, 50% of the workforce in construction is immigrants.

PS: I'm not saying what you say isn't true, it's just weird to see countries that were built by wave after wave of immigrants now say it's not working anymore. What changed from then to now?

PS2: https://www.vox.com/politics/351535/3-theories-for-americas-anti-immigrant-shift probably it's inequality making the majority of people feel like if they don't have enough for themselves, how can new people move in?

also: I was wrong, there's always been some pushback against the wrong kind of immigrants e.g.:

Depends on where you live. For a european, african or an american, it's a bit meh. For a japanese, chinese, korean, philippine, taiwanese, vietnamese or an indonesian...it makes front page. And since this is World News and all...
