Reagan was a secret communist. He gave a speech about Guatemalan co-ops and how employee ownership will come to the USA and be the wave of the future.

>Daily Reminder that before Reagan sold and shipped CONTRA drugs sp he could try to destroy African Americans, drug use was virtually 0%

>Daily reminder that drugs are tearing apart the people who voted for him now.

Convince me and change my view, why should I feel sorry for the voters of the party who first brought hard drugs to America?

Besides West Virginia and Appalacia (who really aren't that racist) did they bring this on themselves?

Why did writing desks stop being angled like this when it surely must be much more comfortable and efficient for writing?
8 posts and 2 images submitted.

>>1799179
Now I'm wondering.
>When did the modern style of writing desk become the norm
>how much cheaper would it be to produce a flat one compared to an angled one
>when the angled desks common outside of the clergy, rich, or royals
These answers could explain that.
>>
>>1799214
>when the angled desks common outside of the clergy, rich, or royals
Better question is "if it was common"
>>
>>1799179
If I recall, these angled sorts of desks were used mostly by monastic orders, or other outfits of some affluence who copied books.
Though, once the printing press came around, most of them said 'forget about this copying shit'.

This is speculation on my part, but I imagine that the flat desk is more utilitarian (easier to count money on, or do other work like cobbling and such I'd imagine), and the angled desk, which I'm not sure if it would be more expensive or not, seems more specialized for writing, so most common folk wouldn't prefer it.

Not a legitimate one, nor would he have wanted to be called one, methinks. What was among his virtues is that he always gave a passionate, reasoned explanation to any of his positions.

If a map of the Mediterranean this accurate was possible to make in the 1300s, why are other maps made up to the early 1700s much less accurate even of the same area?

“The annual produce of the land and labour of any nation can be increased in its value by no other means, but by increasing either the number of its productive labourers, or the productive powers of those labourers who had before been employed. The number of its productive labourers, it is evident, can never be much increased, but in consequence of an increase of capital, or of the funds destined for maintaining them. The productive powers of the same number of labourers cannot be increased, but in consequence either of some addition and improvement to those machines and instruments which facilitate and abridge labour, or of more proper division and distribution of employment. In either case, an additional capital is almost always required. It is by means of an additional capital only, that the undertaker of any work can either provide his workmen with better machinery, or make a more proper distribution of employment among them. When the work to be done consists of a number of parts, to keep every man constantly employed in one way, requires a much greater capital than where every man is occasionally employed in every different part of the work.” (The Wealth of Nations, Book 2, chapter 3)

it's very straight forward, I'd explain it more or less the same way.

>hard life of eastern HRE fuckery
>willingly goes into exile possibly so he doesn't get murdered by poles
>generally goes around chilling in France with feudal relatives
>goes blind
>dies at Battle of Crecy a decade later at age 50

>..for all that he was nigh blind, when he understood the order of the battle, he said to them about him: 'Where is the lord Charles my son?' His men said: 'Sir, we cannot tell; we think he be fighting.' Then he said: 'Sirs, ye are my men, my companions and friends in this journey: I require you bring me so far forward, that I may strike one stroke with my sword.' They said they would do his commandment, and to the intent that they should not lose him in the press, they tied all their reins of their bridles each to other and set the king before to accomplish his desire, and so they went on their enemies. The lord Charles of Bohemia his son, who wrote himself king of Almaine and bare the arms, he came in good order to the battle; but when he saw that the matter went awry on their party, he departed, I cannot tell you which way. The king his father was so far forward that he strake a stroke with his sword, yea and more than four, and fought valiantly and so did his company; and they adventured themselves so forward, that they were there all slain, and the next day they were found in the place about the king, and all their horses tied each to other.
