Hedge funds are paying top dollar
This seems to be the bigger red flag to me.
My girl friend works for FEMA and has been telling me that the private sector, i.e. hedge funds and government contractors are suddenly trying to hire people like her and offering 30% more than she makes now.
I bring this up because the oligarch plan now seems to be to drive out the people in government and replace them with private contractors and corporations. So basically we will be paying more for shittier service.
I know it’s the buzz word right now but it’s enshitification of the government. Drive all the competent people out, claim that government does work, replace the competent people with people who work for your buddy’s business and then your buddy gets richer while providing shittier service.
Truth, Jesuits definitely have their skeletons in the closet when it comes to imperialism/colonialism/slavery but the modern Jesuits are one of the few religious sects I don’t mind.
I was raised Catholic, went to Catholic school but the Jesuits were very influential in my community. I actually came out with a world view shaped by knowledge, understanding, and empathy. The exact opposite of the modern evangelical culture in the US. Maybe I just go lucky and we had the few good Catholics in charge of our church community but I usually contribute it to the Jesuits.
