The Argentine Libertarian Dog-Friendly Darling?

Losing Hand
Hey, You'd better stop to plant it
If you're carrying round that seed
All the goodwill is collapsing
They're killing what we need
You'd better start to grow it
If you're thinking love is all
The space between the sea & sky
is getting kind of small
The blood's been running since it all began
We've got to play & live this losing hand
The blood's still running, flooding the streets
Please Stop, & plant that seed
Hey, You'd better bring some water
If you're living near the flames
The infrastructure's broken
& they're shifting all the blame
Show some understanding
When you're dealing with the tears
Survivors of catastrophies
Are weakend by the fears
The blood's been running since it all began
We've got to live & play this losing hand
The blood's still running, painting the street
Please, Stop! & plant that seed
We've got to dig it up, break it up, hold it up & shine
'Cause love's worth saving each & every time
Nations are falling on their face in the dust
You'd better start believeing that we need a little luck
The blood's been running since it all began
We've got to learn to live with this losing hand
The blood's still running from the dirty deeds
Please Stop, & plant that seed
We've got to dig it up, break it up, hold it up & shine
'Cause love's worth saving each & every time
Nations are falling on their face in the dust
You'd better start believeing we need a little luck
The blood's been running since it all began
We've got to learn to live with this losing hand
The blood's still running from the dirty deeds
Please Stop, & plant that seed

Losing Hand

In this week’s episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Isaac Opper, an economist at the Rand Corporation and professor at the Pardee Rand Graduate School, about how natural disasters can affect education outcomes for students and the resulting stock of skills in the US labor force. Opper discusses the relationship between education and skills in the US labor force, which is known as human capital; how natural disasters can disrupt education for students; and how school administrators and policymakers could mitigate learning losses that result from natural disasters.

Big or small, Joyce Msuya has always found ways to give back. Now Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator in the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, she oversees the global response to the world’s worst crises. 

“For me, personally, it's a privilege to serve humanity. I wake up every morning and think about how I can shift the needle in someone's life.” 

From Gaza to Ukraine, Haiti to Sudan, the UN estimates 300 million people around the world are in need of life-saving assistance and protection. In this episode, Joyce Msuya reflects on keeping hope alive despite waking to fresh crises every day, on the shocking impacts of climate-related extreme weather, and on the long-term benefits of a strict boarding school. 

“A peaceful world would be a gift for all humanity. There's just too much suffering everywhere. If we can live a better and more peaceful world for our children than what we are currently living with, then humanity will be well served.”
