. and goodbye spinal cord <| sep |> If the French elections go the way I ' m thinking they ' ll go , and France gets their own referendum in a couple of years , followed by Denmark , Hungary , god knows who else , the EU might well accelerate turkey ' s joining . It ' s not like there ' s no precedent for countries joining the EU and it ' s institutions without meeting the prerequisites first , just look at Greece . <| sep |> So compared to other Sims such as Harvest Moon and Stardew . How does this hold up ? It seems to have quite a big following . What does it do right and why do people love it so much ? <| sep |> I had one of those too , twas a decent little CPU . <| sep |> I didn ' t say that the amount doesn ' t matter at all . Schools must be properly funded to function well . You don ' t improve education by underfunding . You need to define what you understand properly funded to mean . First it seemed like the amount , then it seemed like the percentage , now it is some mix of both ? If the amount spent per student in Finland and US are nearly identical than you would have to make the case that the percentage somehow makes the difference . Why do you think this is the case ?
