ah, yeah, i sort of missed that argument due to lack of references. e.g. “hull’s depressed vote” (meaning...?)
but yeah, old-style labor is a thing of the past. nations need to pursue their comparative advantages, and embrace change, not resist and subsidize obsolete industries—like here, “coal”. lmao. garbage fuel nobody wants.
