used IL instead of Israel because the autobot will automatically remove it thinking its about the Israel-Palestine conflict , when its about the economy of Israel
are my stereotypes totally out of whack cause i always assumed the ultra orthodox jews had like theology degrees or something, the degree stat surprises me
This is also interesting as it relates to Israel’s birthday which is unusually high for a developed economy but would perhaps say is in instance of a high birth rate actually making things worse
Ben-Gurion’s decision to exempt the Haredim from national service and let them live off welfare has to go down as one of the biggest public-policy mistakes of all time.
