You seriously believe in Lamarck? Like, I don't know, I'm not a native speaker, maybe I'm missing something.
How many fucking times do we have to repeat this: TRAITS ACQUIRED DURING LIFETIME ARE NON-INHERITABLE
If you lose your fingers in an industrial accident, your children aren't going to be born fingerless, are they?
Giraffes don't have long necks because one little giraffe long, long ago tried really, really hard to grow a longer neck, but because giraffes who had been born with longer necks could compete better than those without, and pass on their genes. And they got those necks due to mutations.
Environmental pressure selects for benefitial mutations, while the mutations themselves are random. That's literally the mechanism of evolution through natural selection.
I'm sorry, is this somehow a revelation? "Direct heir" they say... There is a very good chance that "penal colony" is a former Gulag.
A: Read my comment again, it explains what happened, and what can be done to change this.
B: The situation described was under the previous government. They were (for all intents and purposes) the same as Republicans when it came to abortion.
The Polish society at large remains split (unfortunately), and the part that doesn't want legalisation of abortion is also most politically active in terms of voter mobilisation (i.e. they tend to move their asses on election days) and the moderate right (which is part of the current government) doesn't want to potentially alienate those voters.
Right now it seems that the best course of action will be a decriminalisation, and a return to the previous status quo: abortion is legal when the life of women is at stake. This would mean that while getting one wouldn't be illegal, Polish hospitals wouldn't give you one. Any liberalisation beyond that seems to be an issue for a national referendum, which the moderate right is neutral on (i.e. they would allow one to happen, and would not stop things if liberalisation won)
"The ruling government is admitting they don't have the money to fund the state media" say the people who carted out the funds from state media.
It's been two weeks. They've been in power for two weeks.
And you have to understand, this isn't caused by the right-wing passing some law, oh no, no... The Constitutional Court declared abortion unconstitutional. To change this, the new government needs to either change the constitution (requires a massive majority in Parliament), or completely rebuild the current justice system, replacing the CC justices responsible for that ruling (which will take a long time). Any attempt to do it with a simple act will get struck down by the right-wing in just the same way.
That is nothing to say about the fact that about a third of government coalition doesn't want complete legalisation, only a return to the old "compromise"
EDIT: And they did manage to do a lot in those two weeks so far, it's not like this is the only thing they promised to do.
Just so we're all on the same page:
THIS HAPPENED IN JULY.
Just in case anyone wants to pin the blame on the new government.
The controversy is theoretically still ongoing for this case, but on the down low, as just one part of the backlash against the restrictions put on abortions in Poland 3 years ago.
I wonder if that might get the Catholics to condemn Israeli war crimes?
Not related, but I like your username sera.
People cried watching them. Seriously.
Some stuff was obviously done with sticks and scotch tape so to say, since the takeover was very chaotic, the new team didn't really have much resources. But it seems a lot of lower level people have been retained.
The first segment was about the takeover itself, and while it kinda reeked of propaganda, after they've shown the government's justification for the whole thing, they brought up the President's response. And he is from Law and Justice, the previous team. This is what made people cry, since for the first time in 8 years you could hear the opposition voices in state media.
It only got better from there with the budget, where every party got a moment, and the sentencing of those two MPs I've mentioned in main comment.
Overall rather bland, but most people say that's what public media should be like - bland and including every side involved.
Of course, it doesn't mean that every view should be acceptable, but they should be inclusive, even to those with fringe views.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...
You serious?
For real though. Yes the CEO can get a pay cut, but that is unlikely to save more than a few individuals. The costs of labour are just that high, often the highest of all costs a company has. That's why laying off staff, although terrible, is the best way to save money for a company.
I agree that CEOs earn waaaaay to much for what they actually do, but cutting that is not the magic solution people imagine it is.
Even the famous pay cut by Shigeru Miyamoto of Nintendo was accompanied by other cost saving measures in the company, and only because Japanese law demands that layoffs be the last thing a company does.
