Migrant work is to be significantly cut through this 5-year planned development period even as the gains from the ending of severe poverty are to be extended. Work for social purposes is emphasized, but meant to be increasingly personally uplifting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-90260433978480202972021-04-15T08:11:05.833-04:002021-04-15T08:11:05.833-04:00I will unambivalently say more on this topic in th...I will unambivalently say more on this topic in the future...<br /><br />[ The topic strikes me as especially important, not just for America but for China where an ethic of work is fundamental for development and continually discussed. ]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-20729952165270908282021-04-15T08:06:41.006-04:002021-04-15T08:06:41.006-04:00I am coming to the realization that the so-called ...I am coming to the realization that the so-called "Law of Non-Contradiction" needs to be repealed.

Ambivalence is the essential condition for the entertainment of non-authoritative thought. Tolerance for ambivalence is necessary for de-escalating anxiety over difference and difference of opinion. A lot of unnecessary strife is generated by the 54 percenters excoriating the 46 percenters for not being 100 percent. While who is 54% and who is 46% may be entirely a matter of perspective.<br /><br />I will unambivalently say more on this topic in the future...Sandwichmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11159060882083015637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-43814182603667491742021-04-14T07:15:48.021-04:002021-04-14T07:15:48.021-04:00This series of essays has been superb, however I d...This series of essays has been superb, however I do not understand this concluding paragraph though I have read this essay over carefully:<br /><br />'The proverbial "work ethic" of the late 1960s and early 1970s (which is still with us) can best be understood as an ambivalent response by both hippies and hippie-punchers to the simultaneous eclipse of post-war full employment and the "Borrow. Spend. Buy. Waste. Want." consumer society Affluenza. The confusion between irony and ambivalence is almost certainly because satire and irony are the literary forms used to call attention to ambivalence, especially in its more unsavory manifestation as hypocrisy.'<br /><br />Could you please explain this paragraph?<br /><br />Thank you so much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
