> looking in the vague direction of a child
Long ago it became risky for a man to help a child in obvious distress, much safer to fetch the nearest female to deal with it. Sad really.

Can't speak for Germany, but here in Austria a lot of people are nervous about the Euro's future, so not spending, so vicious circle

I can't see the issue going away, not with such a deep national split. If Devo Max works out that'd be a better platform to build independence on IMO

Oh, I wouldn't expect to get a vote, I'd just like to see the whole thing conducted in a more grown-up manner (on both sides) seeing as it affects millions of other people.

Can I answer as well?
Because the whole thing seems to be being conducted on a wing and a prayer - 'Vote Yes for independence, worry about the details later, it'll all be brilliant honestly'. I've no problem with independence per se, but being so cavaliar about something that will also have huge consequences for the 92% of the UK population who don't even get a vote is both dangerous and disrespectful.

This isn't necessarily my opinion, but I'd say it comes down to added value. If a punter sees someone with deep pockets, contacts or whatever buy up a supply of something then simply sell it on for a higher price, there's no added value and it can be seen as parasitic.
Antique dealers, rare car dealers etc can add value by sourcing rare items, restoring them, and making them easy for the punter to find.

> Usually spun content is on topic though, right?
Not necessarily if the spinning is automated rather than done properly. Or outsourced and not checked come to that.
I would have thought it has to be relevant pages rather than sites, or links from major news sites or wide-ranging tech blogs etc would be useless or even harmful?
