Having an agreement really does help. Especially if the laborer feels that he got a say in what the deal is... giving people the illusion of power is golden.
I can't believe this. The government has the nerve to stop funding for college education and they go ahead and publish a report saying they're doing everything they can to bolster entrepreneurship?
Are they stupid? or just mindlessly counterproductive?
I live in the US and haven't visited any of the other "happy" countries in a while.
You say they're happy in the USA... but are they really? Debt, unemployment, corruption...
