"El rechazo popular a la futura amnistía no ofrece dudas, según el barómetro de diciembre de 40dB. para EL PAÍS y la Cadena SER."
"tampoco están muy convencidos los votantes nacionalistas de la renuncia a la unilateralidad por los partidos con los que simpatizan. Solo lo cree así uno de cada cuatro."

RT by @lugaricano: Giuliano Amato, twice Italian 🇮🇹 PM, aged 85, has just been appointed Italy’s artificial intelligence (AI) tsar.
Some questioned his credentials. Here’s his answer: “I love potatoes, with AI you can find really good recipes.”

RT by @lugaricano: Labour has been deeply proud of UK leadership on military aid to Ukraine, and I want to say the same in six months time.
But there are real fears that UK leadership on Ukraine is flagging.
We must not step back. Britain must stand with Ukraine as long as it takes to win.

Escribo hoy que los españoles no debemos esperar de Europa que nos salve de la polarización y deterioro institucional creados por la amnistía: no tiene las herramientas para ello.
Eso sí, Europa será un freno que evite lo peor del populismo económico.

RT by @lugaricano: In a radical break from their business model of paying fines, lobbying and advising CEOs how to wreck their careers through stupid M&A deals, several banks are looking to break into the hot new phenomenon of *checks notes* lending money to companies. https://on.ft.com/3SZEf5o

"The man who...incited a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol... to overturn an election is ...openly fomenting political violence while ...endorsing authoritarian strategies should he return to power. That is the story of the 2024 election. Everything else is window dressing."

Quien fue Secretario Garneral de la UGT (1996-2014) Cándido Méndez, contra la amnistía
- Porque "atenta contra la igualdad, que es la piedra angularsobre la que se asienta todo el edificio constitucional. La amnistía es una granada de fragmentación contra el principio de igualdad ante la ley."
- Porque "la amnistía ha provocado una colosal pérdida de confianza de gran parte del pueblo español en las promesas políticas. ...El Gobierno y la mayoría del Congreso de los Diputados, que va a aprobar la amnistía, han abierto una profunda brecha con gran parte de la sociedad española a través del engaño y del menosprecio."

Important paper: studying growth "per working-age adult" radically changes the picture. For instance: “ from 1998 to 2019, Japan has grown slightly faster than the U.S. in terms of per working-age adult: an accumulated 31.9% vs. 29.5.%.”

Excellent editorial (ungated) on the enormous risks that Sánchez' move poses for Spain, from an a priori sympathetic newspaper.

Spain is taking dangerous steps towards iliberal democracy. The head of the most active anticorruption, pro rule of law, NGO explains, in English, why we are so, so worried about the future of our country.

"La Amnistía Pija". Extraordinario Jabois: "no se vuelve a poder infringir la ley si uno quiere independizar Cataluña, salvo que dentro de unos años algún partido político, por qué no el PSOE, necesite otra vez los votos de los nuevos condenados."
No todo el mundo tiene que cambiar de opinión porque lo hagan sus jefes.

Let's be clear: we are losing. We are losing because we are not prioritizing helping Ukraine.
The West needs to recommit to this war. It is not only about saving Ukrainians from the darkest future but to avoid having a huge security problem on Europe's borders in the next decades.

A great JMP by

.
Why has between firm inequality increased?
Lukas´s answer (THREAD): increasing specialization has increased complementarities between workers´ skills, hence seggregation of workers in firms, increasing by 40% between firm ineq.
