I think the closer term is plutocracy since businesses still fail, rise, and change.MIKHAIL_sl said:

Ok, let's say there's just one choice. You pick one lottery ticket out of millions. What are the odds you picked the right one (to make it easy we'll say there were 10 million tickets)?
Plutocracy definitely captures the effect that capital institutions have on the government under such a system, but I think state-capitalism better captures the effect that the government has on capital institutions. The two go hand in hand.

Essentially that except I don't agree with the undergrads seeing postdocs making money. Postdoc positions pay jack shit.lol undergrads
Hodj, if you think 2 human anatomy courses and a osteology course is enough to have a decent and well rounded understanding of the skeletal system LOLZ.

Eh, it gives you enough for general competence, and it should give you enough to be extremely wary of these calcium "treatments" they're trying to push on older women.
You're not going to be doing any relevant research -- but the truth is that that level of study is far far more than what most people have. Frankly for 99.8% of the population the only thing you need to know about bones is the names of the big or most obviously important ones, first aid techniques, the basic types of fracture, how to diagnose a fracture vs. a sprain, and how to set each without doing further tissue damage.

That isn't what I said.
Mikhail was claiming that my children had extremely large heads, and I was saying that he doesn't understand patterns of human physical development through childhood if he thinks those heads look big, and that I have had enough education to know that his insults were inaccurate tripe.

Also what do you mean well rounded?
Would you define well rounded as being able to name and recognize every bone in the human body, both adult and child, being able to side them, recognize fragments of them, know how they grow and develop, how they are broken down and repaired, how they are structured, how they react to stress.
The anatomy classes were much broader, of course, they didn't focus exclusively on bone, they focused on the whole of human anatomy, they were pre med biology courses. We covered the fundamentals of every major organ system. But the osteology class I had was pretty goddamn thorough.
I'm not a doctorate in it, but I have more training than the average person on the subject.
