Well, either you're really bad at expressing yourself through online comments...or you forgot to add a /s to the end of your comment. Certainly seems to me like you're still a bit confused.
That one whooshed right over your head eh? He's saying that chickens families are not, in fact, the same as human families. They don't form a family unit with bonds above those of other chickens. It's mostly because they're chickens....and not humans and it was a dumb comparison for PETA to try and make.
Pointing out how chickens relate to other chickens does not mean it's an endorsement for cruelty...you stretched big time for that one.
That's what I was thinking. Pretty much what I would expect them to say publicly. Who knows what they actually think...you don't find it in the news, that's for sure.
Why? I don't understand the point of this study. A small sample of self-reported ADHD participants exhibited elevated interest in political news and political interaction on social networks. Cool, so why would that matter? What impact would people with ADHD being interested in politics have on society? Substitute "ADHD" with literally any other group and it still lacks significant meaning. I guess it's just something we can look at and say "huh... neat!"
So I ultimately agree that the first thing to do is to recognize your known amounts. I start with a simple Excel spreadsheet and begin with known monthly income amounts first. Fixed or relatively consistent income gets it's own row. Then I try to think about other sources of income that I make throughout the year (if any) and then average that to a monthly amount.
Next I start with all of my known fixed expenses. Mortgage/rent, car payments, insurance, etc. Next comes known variable expenses like gas, groceries, etc. I always average out the last few months and try to lean towards a higher amount to be conservative. Last, I try to always budget for unexpected expenses. Vehicle maintenance, child injury, unexpected bachelor party...you name it, but every month on average SOMETHING unexpected comes along.
What I'm left with, I divide by 30 days to figure out what I can spend on a daily basis. Some days I spend over, sometimes way under...but this gives me a good idea every day on how I should be doing for the month. I find it helps to have that "per day" thought in your mind at all times!
Sounds like you need to be doing that venting in some air conditioning! I'm a cold weather guy myself, and if I could send you on a trip to a freezer for an afternoon I'd do it!
There's a LOT that goes into global monetary policy. I know more than some, but it's complicated in a way that's not easy or quick to explain here.
So to try and keep it short, there's at least a couple major trade-offs. First, it would be somewhat offset by Australian immigrants working in other foreign countries and sending money home to Australia. Second, Australia has global trade partners for a multitude of things and can offset imbalances through borrowing or lending through international trade if and when needed.
There's really so much more that goes into it and it's a bit different for every country, but that's a broad idea of how it can balance out.
