@MariaGXanthou There is this Ottoman expression old people used to say after a meal: "İster zengin ister fakir, [something] sigara". Any idea? — PolitiTweet.org

The point & simple logic is that if the more money you make, the more you must decide on *where* to spend your time based on taxes, then you will never be rich. — PolitiTweet.org

Humans did not evolve, haven't gotten wiser; they carry the same mental biases, are as fooled by randomness & data as in ancient times. And, as we saw in 1944 & 2022, etc., just as savage. What has evolved, gotten wiser is (some) institutions, legal mechanisms. Protect these. — PolitiTweet.org
