Finally. Took long enough.

Off the top of my head, I can answer the phone in half a dozen different ways in my language. And that is without going into rude or strange words for older people.
I want my diversity of options.
American is not a language. English, on the other hand...
Which one? The USofA as no official language. And apparently English is not even the most spoken language in it, by some recent surveys.
Should we make Italian the official language for telephones? It was an italian that invented the technology that gave rise to it. No? Doesn't really make much sense, does it? Or perhaps chinese should be the only writen language. After all, they did invent paper and popularized it as a writing medium.
The american armed forces got to create the concept and kickstart it but the moment the technology is out, it belongs to no one and every one. Let's all be collectively happy for that.
That does not sound bad.
I really want to see if the requirements for new games will go down or continue rising.
The machines are better at repeating a task with no down time but even then quality will degrade. That is why quality verification exists.
Hand made cars - or anything, by extension - are so expensive because of the human attention going into it. A specialized worker, technician, engineer, etc, makes sure their job is the best because they are specialists at what they do.
It is a system that allows for the flow of wealth to pool around a very reduced number of individuals, built on debt and exploitation.
It is a broken, failed and failling system and the proof is plenty and ubiquous, unless we are to deny the last twenty years, just to keep within recent times, where several unprecedented economic disasters took place that have led to lowering living standards and the rise of personal fortunes to never before registered levels, while nations go into mounting debt.
That is asinine.
But this was not about economics but education.
Where does your reasoning goes to force an outdated and regressive doctrine to individuals, particularly women? And why are men exempt of similar considerations, apparently?
Capitalism is as failed of an economic model as what is coloquially called "communism", associated with the brutal authoritarian regimes that rose in the late USSR, China, etc.
Basic reasoning is enough to find flaws in your opinion.
As living standards rise, fertility rates drop. This is a demonstrated reality throughout every nation. Birth rates remain high where gender roles are enforced - usually through religious belief - and poverty is generalized.
Unless you intend to enforce poverty, ignorance or both, what you propose is a civilizational regress, not advancement.
This is an unpopular opinion.
Congratulations! You achieved the goal of the community.
But now I feel the need to ask: are you not aware that what you propose is going back on civilizational achievements of nearly a century?
Regardless of the religious-type language - which can be viewed as just dated - words like "pray" often find their way into day to day speech as placeholders for other words; in this case "hope".
And that "God" thrown into the salad: I risk I can take a guess from where your sentiment is coming but most people are not zealots and the "God" they appeal to is as best as far as possible from the clerical interpretation as it can get or at worst is just an appeal for a hope on something outside themselves to keep them hopeful for a better day.
Let people be.
Please.
