How come?

I’ve read in the news that “for basic necessities in Serbia next year people would need one and a half of monthly earnings”. How come?

Idiot

Sometimes I feel like an idiot that hasn’t learned anything in life.

Unacceptable

I haven’t found anything (yet) that I couldn’t understand, but plenty that I couldn’t accept.

Big Squeeze

What’s after the Big Bang? Big Squeeze?

Marx was right

Marx wrote, some 150 years ago that “capitalism, if it wants to be sustainable, has to penetrate to each corner of our planet and submit it to its way of operating. When, in the end, capitalism penetrates all the markets (e.g. becomes global), it will start lacking space for expansion (and exploitation, op.ed.) and that would lead to its final collapse.” He was right.

Progress

Capitalism set back human progress for some five centuries. Without it, we’d be living on Mars right now.

Essence

The essence of capitalism is in resale: buy/produce cheap, sell for much more. In small portions.

All the same

Whatever you do in life, it’s all the same: you’re born, you live and you – die.

Multiverse

Multiverse?! Really? Why not a double-folded universe? Or quadruple-folded multiverse? Theoretical physicists are a bunch of smart guys thinking about nonsense.

Science

Science as a modern religion: with same efficient explanations.
