[quote=FlyerInHi]Flu, you really want a federal industrial policy.
But I don’t think free market thinkers will like it. Natural gas is a world commoditiy all selling at the same price no matter the origin. Easier for China to build a pipeline from Russia. I think they already signed a agreement.[/quote]
Agreements can be rewritten.
We are really good about not honoring our agreements. We seem to have no problem trying to rewrite pension agreements too.
I am just waiting for the moment that the is renegotiated with China, and at the height of frustration, trump and company says some like “those dirty chinks…blah blah blah….”
Lol.
And then we can look at all the Asians that actually voted for him and say “what the fuck were you thinking?”
Sometimes the only way people learn, is the hard way.
For whatever fucked up reasons, there are actually people in China that like trump. They think he is not going to meddle in far east politics. China would want that and I am guessing they would want give trade concessions to the us if it meant no meddling in far east politics. Bad news for Taiwan, Japan, Korea, phillipines Vietnam, Malaysia, etc. I think that’s why the phillipines quickly buddies up with China to get on their good side. They know it’s coming.
That island dispute will be resolved…forcefully.
So that’s how the new world order will be split. US on the west, China on the east, and maybe Russia will try to reassert itself in their former Soviet satellites)
