                <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://site-757609.mozfiles.com/files/757609/liberalisms.jpg?1617697687&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;I&#039;m preparing for a long
time, and now I&#039;m mature.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Despite the global
pandemic crisis, other activities are taking place around the world.
Liberal forces have become very active, fighting as their &quot;minority&quot;
for their rights with the &quot;majority&quot; completely
discriminating against them. Yes, yes ... That&#039;s the paradox.
Fighting discrimination turns out to be only possible by
discriminating against others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;That&#039;s how it started in
the USA with &quot;Black matter lives&quot;, when suddenly everyone
&quot;white&quot; had to stand on his knees and kiss his feet there.
Why &quot;keep it&quot;? Because I don&#039;t know exactly how to label
it. Today&#039;s politically correct &quot;African Americans&quot; are far
from correct or accurate, as they represent a very narrow ethnic
group. My school teaches that there are Europeans in Europe, Asians
in Asia, Aborigines in Australia and Negroes in Africa. And not some
&quot;afro something&quot;. Because why in Europe are the 2015
refugees from Somalia, Libya, Morocco called &quot;African
Americans&quot;, even though they don&#039;t even know where such America
is? But you see, someone didn&#039;t like it, and ... The minority didn&#039;t
like it, so the majority accepted it as a dogma. Although ... This is
exactly the issue that could still be discussed - who is a minority
and who is a majority. But maybe that&#039;s why it has all become a
tradition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;A month ago, I learned
that there was such a &quot;celebrity&quot;, blogger Didrihsone. She
had published her opinion on non-traditional relations, for which she
really deserved public condemnation. But looking at her statements, I
did not find anything condemning in them, because a person simply
openly said what he understands and what he thinks, without calling
for violence or any resistance. And I supported this &quot;celebrity&quot;
because in many ways her opinion coincided with mine. And I posted it
on Facebook. And you know? After about half an hour, I received a
notice that my account was being blocked because my opinion did not
agree with the FB company&#039;s guidelines. I did not accept this, and
when I started talking to FB robots, I forced this &quot;artificial&quot;
intellect to connect me to the ordinary, and after half an hour FB
was forced to admit that in my opinion there is absolutely no call
for violence, no racial condemnation, no groups condemnation or other
overt discrimination, and my profile remained untouched, both with
the indication that if I allowed myself to do something wrong, it
would be everything. And for the sake of peace, FB asked me to delete
my message, which FB himself did quickly ... So what had I written
like that? I quote: &quot;I also have homosexuality incomprehensible,
so I do not support it.&quot; No more, no less. However, the relevant
characters, who are so &quot;discriminated against&quot;, hastily
filed a complaint with FB that I see them turning against them with
hatred, violence, calling for something ... And here, as a lawyer, I
have a question for these characters - don&#039;t you think that you
discriminate against heterosexuals?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Each of us is a unique
individual who integrates into society. And only we ourselves and God
know all our fetishes, passions, hobbies, pros and cons. Is that why
the rest of society is bad? No.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Yes, the majority of
society consciously or unconsciously creates &quot;polite society&quot;
stereotypes that determine norms of behavior. And, of course, not all
of these stereotypes may be acceptable to us ALL. Someone does not
like to eat holding a fork in his left hand because seeing it is
uncomfortable. What to do? Make a brawl and condemn those who do it?
Maybe regular speeders get together and hold a pride to advertise
total speeding? Maybe thieves and OCGs are marching with the slogan -
&quot;Get off with a criminal law&quot;? No, it sees is bad. But to
openly advertise your fetish, your tendencies, which are unacceptable
to the majority of the public - you see it right, and everyone who
expresses dissatisfaction with it - discriminates. But is not
imposing discrimination on your position as the only right one? That
there are LGBT members? Although I know the answer - everything you
do is right, but what we do is wrong. OK, so be it. Let us change
society and state that the good tone of society is homosexuality, and
that heterosexuality is something very bad, and therefore prohibited.
Just again, the question for the same LGBT people - where will you
take the babies you really want to adopt? Don&#039;t you think that by
your actions you are either leading the world to destruction, or do
you just want to take on and create an LGBT dictatorship where the
heterosexual will be put on some animal level? And don&#039;t you think
that you are consciously and deliberately creating the conditions to
provoke your condemnation? I am afraid you will not want to discuss,
because there will be no answers against. There will only be
conspiracy theories, &#039;&#039; one aunt said, &#039;&#039; etc., just as we experience
now with a pandemic. And by the way - it is you who call for
violence, condemnation and hatred.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;For example, I am deeply
indifferent to who a person is - black, white, blue, green, hetero,
bi, or homo. I will pay no attention to his religion or his political
position. But until then. And that time and moment comes when someone
begins to tell me that I am living wrong, that I do not understand,
and that God does not give, it is all presented through uncensored
words and personal insults. OK, I understand that for some people the
intelligence is not higher than a five-year-old child, and he raises
his self-confidence according to the number of uncensored words - it
does not offend me, because with such as they say - for good.
However, it is then that I realize that someone is trying to force
something on me, pull it in somewhere, and close my mouth. I say once
- will not succeed. Because, as you know, every action has a
countermeasure. I have worked in the same team with a Muslim, a Negro
and a homosexual, and I have never had a problem. On the contrary -
there were friendly parties, there were interesting discussions on
these topics, and the Negro did not offend to be called a Negro, the
Muslim did not try to prove superiority over baptism, the gay did not
drag me to his bed. But they were neither &quot;Black matter live&quot;,
nor &quot;IGIL&quot;, nor &quot;LGBT&quot;. And maybe that&#039;s why. And
they were respectable people, because I understand that their
position and opinion could not be manipulated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Here are some thoughts.
And that&#039;s exactly what I want the people in the article to think
about - do you really not allow the &quot;discriminated&quot; people
to live in peace, or does someone just tell you that and promise to
reward you?&lt;/p&gt;

                <title>Medical protests.</title>
                <link>http://marissilins.mozello.lv/problems/params/post/1931362/medical-protests</link>
                <pubDate>Thu, 07 Nov 2019 12:08:00 +0000</pubDate>
                <description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;//site-757609.mozfiles.com/files/757609/medicina.jpg?1549201248&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Today, medics gathered in
a picket near the Saeima to fight for their wages, to comply with the
law. However, analyzing all the events that have occurred to date
does lead to a not very encouraging conclusion - there will be no
radical change in everything. Why such conclusions? Here are the
answers:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Going back a long
	time ago, the Ministry of Health (HM) budget was halved, but there
	were overtime hours, three jobs, and with God half the doctors
	pulled the ends together. It even bought, repaired and built new
	equipment and machinery. The doctors screamed, but did not protest.
	Except EMS.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Then came the
	judgment of the Constitutional Court, which stipulated that overtime
	work should be paid at double the rate, and thus medical problems
	began. The first thing the Ministry of Health and hospital boards
	did was prohibit doctors from working overtime. And now the murmur
	was beginning to turn into frustration. To somehow “let off that
	steam”, the then Minister of Health, A.Čakša, used his presence
	with the power party and made a statement that the medical industry
	was short of money and as a result of various periphythm the budget
	of the Ministry was DOUBLE !!! As a result, a law called &quot;Increase
	in wages for medical staff&quot; was passed, stipulating that
	medical salaries should increase by 30% in 2018, and thereafter by
	20% each year for five years, in exchange for overtime. Plus, money
	was given to &quot;fix&quot; e-health, reduce patient queues, buy
	routine equipment, etc., and so on. As a result, medical salaries in
	2018 were increased by ... (!!!) on average by 25% instead of the
	promised 30%. But it was silent because the growth was and everyone
	was happy. However, there were still some overtime hours. In short,
	one could live.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;The year 2019 came
	and it was revealed that there was no money in the doubled budget
	for the next salary increase step. However, this did not prevent
	Members from deciding that salary increases should be, which, in the
	words of Members and Ministers themselves, now turns out to be an
	empty promise and an unenforceable law. Somewhere, however, the
	money was &quot;raised&quot; and salaries increased. As much as 10
	percent, because it suddenly turned out that the doctors did not
	understand the meaning of the law, and it sees only the &quot;lower&quot;
	wage increase, but overtime reduced it completely. However, after
	the increase, something great did not change for the &quot;lowest&quot;
	wage earners - as was the minimum, it practically remained. The
	medical staff went to work again and started working in two, three
	places, thus bypassing the HM&#039;s &quot;blessing&quot; law on overtime
	work, because working in another institution was not overtime. As a
	result, the law began to be violated, which was actually initiated
	and supported by the HM itself.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Now 2020 is coming.
	And it&#039;s no wonder that there is no money in the HM again. In
	retrospect, I can say that in Latvia the budget is the ninth wonder
	of the world - regardless of all the circumstances, even according
	to statistics, the economy is growing, tax revenue is growing, GDP
	is growing - there will never be enough money in the budget.
	Therefore, it turns out that in 2020 the salaries of medical
	personnel are not expected to increase. Then, after many speeches,
	quarrels, threats, he found half of what was needed and announced
	that wage growth would be half that. According to our Ministry of
	Finance (MoF), HM, this would mean a 2% increase in medical
	salaries, because if 20% were 10, it would be logical that half
	would be a quarter. If anyone did not understand this arithmetic,
	they could ask for advice. ministers, and economists in the Saeima,
	all of whom have education in Oxford, Cambridge and Yale (where we
	have nothing ...)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;I will not talk about
which sectors the money came from. It is one - public administration
combined with the Saeima. Those who do not deserve a cent in the
country, turn out to deserve the most. Another paradox of the Latvian
budget.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;But now it all comes down
to a protest that makes no sense, because in the world, such protest
is called staged, controlled protest. They are used in two cases: (a)
to show the world that democracy exists in the country; b) When
unsuccessful politicians raise their ratings at the expense of
protesters to tick their inaction list. In any case, either together
or individually, nothing changes in the lives of the protesters.
Aside from personal satisfaction and a degree of self-esteem for all
stakeholders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;And today it was visible.
Ministry of Healty Vinķele smiled in front of protesters as he had
been urging medics for three months, in other words, sanctioning open
but controlled protest activities. As a result, the person who
received one of the largest streaks in parliamentary elections is now
almost a saint and the industry&#039;s biggest supporter .... Of course,
for a second, another &quot;life-abuser&quot; joined in, earning a
plus. I won&#039;t list the rest of the skins, but without them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Will this protest make
any sense? No it won&#039;t. Everything has already been decided. It was
clear - 50 million and that&#039;s it. He filed a protest, holding polls
ahead of time and realizing there would be many, thought and &quot;found&quot;
another 10 million. A total of 60.- million, exactly half of what was
&quot;promised&quot; and recorded. A total compromise. In addition,
when the Speaker of the Saeima &quot;invited&quot; a picket
delegation to the talks, the Minister of Healty remained and did not
go anywhere. Isn&#039;t it funny? It confirms that everything has already
been put to the point and the delegation was &quot;crying&quot; for
difficult times, promising that they are and will be a priority, bla
bla bla ....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;In fact, everything is
much, much simpler. Money is real, but it continues to be wasted. Ask
the ministers to tell you how their ministry budget is being used,
and the answer will be, uh, oh, next ... is as it is. But ... But
none of this number is true. Proof of this is the annual reports of
the State Audit Office, none of which are without remarks,
instructions and materials sent to the prosecutor&#039;s office.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Money is. Only one is
very reluctant to give it back, but someone else lacks the desire to
claim it and take it. But on the whole, some people who live in their
individual world are so reluctant to live honestly, because then
there won&#039;t be so many ... There will be no personal cottages, no
homes, no property ... There will be no free and paid world tour.
Will have to live honestly ....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 14px;&quot;&gt;I am grateful to my
readers and &lt;a href=&quot;/about-me/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;supporters.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                <title>Reading literacy</title>
                <link>http://marissilins.mozello.lv/problems/params/post/1709151/</link>
                <pubDate>Mon, 04 Feb 2019 16:54:00 +0000</pubDate>
                <description>&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;//site-757609.mozfiles.com/files/757609/lasitprasme.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Reading literacy is one
of the most valuable and necessary skills of today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Long ago, when I was
still a child, reading another fairy-tale book, I dreamed that it
would be good if the pictures lived up and that the fairy-tale would
simply look at the reading place. With the growth of television, the
development of cinema and the development of cinematography, it was
possible to compare the read fairy with the film. Later I was able to
compare even more serious works of art. And, as it turned out, the
book was often better than cinema.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Today we live in the XXI
century. And my childhood dreams come true. Smartphones, tablets.
Reading is no longer a necessity. Everything can be viewed. Just tell
the magic words - &#039;&#039; Google OK .... &#039;&#039;, and please - all the
information is presented on the &#039;silver plate with a gold edge&#039; or,
more precisely, on the tablet, the smartphone. Progress! Development!
Urra !!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;But really? It has been
shown that when reading, a person adds to his vocabulary, which in
turn helps him to formulate his own words, opinions, claims, etc.
more accurately. In turn, these skills are enhanced by an
individual&#039;s IQ, which in turn makes the individual attractive to the
community, generates opportunities for growth and career. However, it
seems that the world &#039;&#039; high technology &#039;&#039; is doing its best to
degrade humanity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;Nowadays, reading books
is no longer necessary because special programs read a book in front
of you. Even basic SMS writing is no longer necessary as you can send
and receive voice messages. Today&#039;s youth choose computer games
instead of reading the most of their life time. So they do not
develop, are physically weak and inadequate, intellectually retarded.
Today, only one in twelve young people aged between seven and sixteen
is able to formulate their thoughts precisely. Only every ninth can
speak and write with compound sentences using compound and sequential
terms. And not because they aren&#039;t taught at school. No, because when
they listen, they do not settle in their brain as they read.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;In a conversation with a
teacher, I was shocked by her story. Today, a ninth grade student
reading a book that I read at school for two weeks, plus a book
summary - this student reads four months !!! FOUR !!!! Reading is at
primary level !!! And this is our &#039;future&#039; ...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;In conclusion ... Can we
really blame the technology? Not!. They are designed to make our life
easier, but not to replace it. Then who is to blame? We are guilty
ourselves. We, who do not ask our children, grandchildren to read, we
who, for the sake of our peace, put our child in the hands of a
tablet, so that we do not interfere with us ... And then we are still
judging about the injustices that are waiting for us everyday ...
What we insult ? How do we destroy ourselves? How do we make
degenerates from our children?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;&quot;&gt;Maybe
it&#039;s worth finding yourself?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;moze-justify&quot;&gt;P.S. Interesting - how
many will read this article? Enter a comment if you have read it to
the end.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
