pension plan reform Aymo Brunetti fuw

when science and politics clash ...Dieser Gedanke muss unbedingt in die nächste Reform eingebracht werden. Man muss in die Richtung der versicherungsmathematischen Wahrheit gehen. Das müssen wir vorab den Jungen erklä­ren. Sie sind, ohne dass es allen bewusst wäre, die grossenVerlierer dieser Reform....Gemäss einer Studie zur Schweizer Generationenbilanz öffnet sich heute eine langfristige Finanzierungslücke von über 170% des Bruttoinlandprodukts. Sie reduziert sich mit derVorlage ein wenig, vor allem aufgrund der Mehrwertsteuererhö­ hung. Aber es bleibt eine enorme Lücke
von 135% des Bruttoinlandprodukts.....In den kommenden zehn Jahren werden in der
Schweizrundeine MillionMenschenpensioniert, das ist ein Fünftel aller Arbeitskräfte. Zusätzlich verknappend wirkt die Umsetzung der Masseneinwanderungsinitiative. Die Unternehmen werden sich schon bald um die älteren Arbeitskräfte streiten.....Jemand, der zwischen 25 und 45 Jahre alt
ist und für die Altersvorsorge 2020 stimmt, ist entweder ein ungewöhnlicher Altruist oder hat die Auswirkungen der Vorlage nicht verstanden. Das sind die Jahrgänge, die die Reform bezahlen

That is by design. The school is modelled on the Kolmogorov Physics and Mathematics School in Moscow, which from the mid-1960s took Russia’s smartest 15-year-olds and exposed them to the best maths teaching in the country. Michael
Gove, Britain’s education secretary from
2010 to 2014, imported the idea, pushing
universities to start specialist maths colleges. The aim was to make it possible for
any child to have an “Eton-level education” in maths or physics, recalls Dominic
Cummings, a former adviser to Mr Gove

By lifting obstacles to job
changes and giving workers a social safety net that enables them
to refuse the crummiest jobs, societies can foster employment
that is not just full, but fulfilling.

Physics

Andrew Geraci’s equipment, on the other
hand, comprises a glass bead 300 billionths ofa metre across, held in a lattice of
laser light inside an airless chamber. The
power it consumes would run a few oldfashioned light bulbs. Like researchers at
the LHC, Dr Geraci and his team at the University of Nevada, in Reno, hope to find
things unexplained by established theories such as the Standard Model of particle
physics and Newton’s law of gravity.
Whereas the LHC cost around SFr4.6bn
($5bn) to build, however, DrGeraci’sset-up

In Dr Geraci’s experiment the suspended bead scatters laser light onto a detector.
If a force displaces the bead, the pattern of
light changes, permitting the bead’s new
position to be calculated. In work published last year in Physical Review A, his
team showed that the apparatus can detect
forces of a few billionths of a trillionth of a
newton. (Anewton isaboutthe force exerted by Earth’s gravity on an apple.) Their
next step will be to move a weight past the
bead at a distance of five microns (five
thousandths of a millimetre), to measure
the gravitational attraction between them.
That experiment is now under way
cost a mere $300,000 and fits on a table
about a metre wide and three long

Any
departure from this law would provide
support for theories which hope to solve
what is known as the hierarchy problem of
physics. This is the question ofwhy gravity
isso much weakerthan the otherthree fundamental interactions between particles,
namely electromagnetism and the weak
and strongnuclearforces   and strongnuclearforces. The disparity be
tween gravity and these forces explains,

for example, why a small magnet can pick
up a paper clip against the gravitational
force ofan entire planet.

Distinguishing between cause and effect is
always hard in the social sciences.

Mr Trump is hardly the first tycoon to discover that business
and politics work by different rules. If you fall out over a property deal, you can always find another sucker. In politics you
cannot walk away so easily. Even if Mr Trump now despises
the Republican factions that dared defy him over health care,
Congress is the only place he can go to pass legislation.
