    It's same story in a lot of places, parts of social reproduction have been pillaged to produce profits, and that fundamentally compromises the entire system.

    Northern EU gets tons of educated workers from southern Europe not because they don't produce them locally but because there's been basically no capital investment happening in southern Europe.

    That serves to lower the salaries in aggregate, and drains all the most productive workforce from countries, preventing them from ever really having a realistic financial independence.
