So in other words you are unwilling to answer the question.

Got it.

This is precisely why I say that you aren’t intellectually serious people.

This is a pleasant fiction.

And your point is?

Please do share an example of industrialization that somehow doesn’t include unforseen negative health effects.

Go on now, we’ll wait.

You know, that actually makes sense. 14-year-olds. It would explain a lot about hexbears.

Yeah, it’s so strange that people confuse you with a Kremlin bot when you repeatedly spew the same fucking bullshit talking points as the bots themselves.

Man, a lot of you Americans need to unionize. None of this happens at my work and it’s precisely because we’re unionized and have a contract that specifically says that our employer is bound by strict rules. Granted, we don’t get a month paid vacation, but we can’t be denied time off, can’t be compelled to be on call, can’t be forced to work overtime and we have PTO accounts, healthcare and a pension that get paid into on a weekly basis.

We do use it where necessary; in science, engineering and the military, for example. Some of our imperial units suck, but others, like pounds and feet and inches are superior because they are more intuitive. The reality is that it’s a non-issue for most people and because of that we will almost always have some version of a mixed system, as do most of the other Anglophone countries.
