Only the dollar amount, the number of kids and wives is confirmed by a German newspaper Snopes does that pretty frequently, adjust what about the story they are "fact-checking" and then rate only that aspect to try and…
Offshoring with free trade means the whole global population is effectively in competition for jobs. Pay and benefits is reduced to the country willing to provide the cheapest labor with least protections and benefits.
The developed world is fine and has reached equilibrium On the other hand Africa's population will be larger than the rest of the world combined within the century and while you are responsible you're tax dollars are…
But the difference here is there's not choice. There's plenty of people who want kids or want to retire, but can't because the job market is garbage due to artificially increased labor supply and thus they are forced to…
hopefully the prison reform bill helps Although an interesting though I've had is that in the future people might get sent to jail on purpose for a non-violent offense because they'll essentially educate you while…
Their seems to be a concerted effort to propagandize the population into believing that lowered living standards is a GOOD thing Not being able to get a full time job with benefits isn't bad, it's the Gig Economy! Not…
yeah, if bulls had been correct and there was a paradigm shift and Bitcoin soared to 100k this guy would have simply kept quiet about his prediction. If he was truly confident in it he would have taken out a loan and…
I mean they had museum exhibits dedicated to comparing black people to animals https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/oct/14/chinese-museum... And then the whole million muslim concentration camp. Chinese are pretty big…
Considering the US is, you know, the US and a majority white country, it's not weird at all. Indians and chinese make up something like 5% of the US population so for them to take up 90% of a select group can really…
we used to invest $3 into infrastructure and science for every $1 in entitlements spending. Now we spend $5 in entitlements for every $1 in infrastructure/science And people wonder why the US is falling apart and…
In what free market does a government subsidize a company and force competitors to give their native companies their IP to do business? China never cared about free trade, they use it like a weapon to beat idealists…
Because the Chinese government steals it and then gives it to "private" chinese companies Not having to do billions in R&D makes it pretty easy to catch up. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/22/technology/china-micron-c...
Everyone trashed Trump for the solar tariffs but I liked it for this reason. Sure, temporarily they get more expensive but what happens in 20+ years when the world is reliant on solar power and China has a complete…
realpolitik, anything Trump can use to turn the international community against China will be used
Bolsonaro's big quote is that "China isn't investing in Brazil, it's buying brazil". If Trump offers Bolsonaro a good trade deal I wouldn't be surprised to see him take it to get away from China's influence
trade, IP, muslim concentration camps, illegal island creation in south China sea, the list goes on. Xi's power grab is only accepted because life is pretty good right now in China. He won't be able to maintain power…
The big thing nobody talks about with Bolsonaro though is the geopolitical implications with China. US and Brazil could starve China into compliance as they produce around 80% of the worlds soy and corn. Nobody is…
With how much money China has dumped into Africa and Nigeria it seems awfully suspicious that this would happen. From my understanding not only would the Nigerian ISP need to make a mistake, but the China and Russian…
