Apparently, researcher doesn't understand comparative advantage.
Be sure to check if there is a Russian, or Chinese person, or Iranian person, under your bed before you go to sleep tonight. Be safe, my friend.
Mexicans stoled the land from Spain. Mexicans did not until the Spaniards created them and made them Catholic.
Even without arms sales, Hamas is still much weaker than Israel. To put things in perspective, the Oct. 7 militant attack consisted of about 2,900 fighters. The people, they killed 1,139 people. Presumably, all 2,900 militants armed. The memberships of Hamas are estimated at 20,000 or 25,000. Perhaps as high as 30,000. Hamas is not an existential threat to Israel. Hamas is considered a terrorist organization, not a standing army with modern weapons and heavy equipment. It is like saying Al-Qaeda could take over the entire United States. The threat is simply not there. Al-Qaeda are like flies, the US military is like Godzilla.
Texas politicians need to get over the hurdle of "NIMBY" with the voters. They need to somehow circumvent the voter or get sneaky with legislation that relaxes zoning laws statewide.
Demand is relative. When the USSR collapsed, NATO countries, especially European members, dramatically cut military spending below the minimum mandate they agreed upon, which contradicts the Russophobia narrative. A reason why for "high demand" is that since the US was picking on small, weaker countries, it never had to face an adversary in a war of attrition. Instead, the US military during the unipolar moment. Uncle Sam focused on high-tech gadgets that focused on precision while gutting the true and proven kings of battle, like artillery and their dumb shells. Even the M777 shoots a high-tech GPS guided 155mm shell. Because the US government never provided checks on pricing, no bargaining, the US hyperinflated the costs for military procurement. Things that should be reasonably priced with their military contemporary equivalents, are ludicrously priced. Paying more for less. There is your price gouging there. They have done it to themselves. This is more than just attributed to higher income. The military suppliers purposely maximize profits over volume, and only produce just enough as not to lower their profit margins than necessary. American politicians won't tell you about this, because their profligacy creates its own constituency, and a revolving door of politicians becoming lobbyist, and vice versa. You know, like Nikki Haley, who some moderate democrats find apparent qualities about her.
I didn't believe the initial claim that Putin will order a hit on a political enemy that is imprisoned in an isolated, frozen, environment.
That is correct. Congress have their own discourse while they deal with the public differently. There is a lot of stuff that goes on that clearly does not represent the will of the American people.
Sanctions don't work. Sanctions have never succeeded in regime change. Sanctioned countries can circumvent the sanctions by going around them. In the case of China, China is a 17 trillion dollar economy with a proven consumer market. If sanctions didn't work on smaller economies, will it work for economic leviathans? Sanctions are a two-way street. Sanctions are a cost to the country being sanctioned and to the country imposing the sanctions. Trade controls on China are actually a sanction on US companies as well. In the EU, sanctions on Russia is a sanction on themselves. Now they have to pay for expensive, more complex energy structures., while a key component to stabilize that is natural gas.
Did the Inflation Reduction Act actually reduce inflation, or was it higher interest rates? Last time I looked, it was 3.5%.
The cause of 9/11 is US influence in the land of Mecca.
It is globalist extremist versus average people. It is only far right of a globalist. Consider all the things the people are complaining about, most of it has to do with an international agenda and political agenda that looks outside.
