In an oppressed economy though, It's irrelevant if you work hard, the state will take your money away via taxes or expropriations. In a space of freedom where any individual can unwind however they like to, definetly hard work is a road to get out of poverty. A simple example of what I just said, in Chile, in 1973, 55% of the population was poor. More than 4 decades of relatively free economy, only 8,6% of the population is poor.  https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/share-of-population-living-in-poverty-by-national-poverty-lines?tab=chart&country=~CHL]]> 2020-10-07 14:52:37 UTC https://padlet.com/santiagocollege/c017obhk3at96ja3/wish/810540172 Transgender people cannot change their gender status legally - Daniel Juricic https://padlet.com/santiagocollege/c017obhk3at96ja3/wish/810567527 I agree as this is a legal opening that can be used to retire early, or to play an easier sport, or to go to a woman´s jail as it happened in Argentina. Weather you like it or not, the law must be objective. If someone wants to identify himself as another gender, as a tree or as a car, it´s fine. But for cime activities, research and other things, this would be an isue that can make it more difficult to apply the law, or used badly.   https://elpais.com/internacional/2018/03/22/solo_en_argentina/1521724377_896247.html ]]> 2020-10-07 14:58:46 UTC https://padlet.com/santiagocollege/c017obhk3at96ja3/wish/810567527 Countries should lower the number of accepted refugees as part of their intake agreements. eliass4 https://padlet.com/santiagocollege/c017obhk3at96ja3/wish/810612477 Countries should not lower the number of accepted refugees because people from other countries have a lot to offer and help the country.
