The mess with the refugees stems from the mess in Syria… which stems from the West’s determination to not intervene during the uprising against Assad. That crisis got worse because everyone, including the U.S., was eager to leave Iraq and not deal with rebuilding that country or the Arab world as a whole.

SOMEONE TO SCAM AT YOU: Fake recruiters on LinkedIn are targeting infosec pros.

“They will approach you by sending a general recruiter message with a profile picture of an attractive woman,” he then explained their modus operandi. “The job will be relative to your job. They will ‘scout’ a few people (besides you). After about a week they stop sending out new requests, the profile picture is removed and a bit later their name is changed making it hard to find these people back in your list if its big). In about a month the accounts disappear, not sure if on purpose.”

I THINK HEINLEIN KNEW THE ANSWER: A scarcity of economic growth.  From the article: “The causes of the productivity collapse are unclear.”
… if you don’t read Heinlein.  If you do, you’ll remember this:

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as “bad luck.”
