Compromises are where it’s at, not just throwing tariffs around. Trump’s style is all about confrontation, but that’s failing in a global market.

You're mixing up Trump’s craziness with the whole of the US. His time will end soon enough, and people are getting tired of his antics. This scenario might be possible, but it’s not likely.

Funny how people freaked out about steam engines back in the day. They thought jobs would vanish. Now it's the same song with AI... Same fears, different tech. Sure, some jobs will go, but for many, AI will just make…

Thanks for breaking this down. I get your point on the geopolitical implications. It all comes back to defining what constitutes a military target depending on who's in charge of the narrative.

There’s definitely a need for both the US and China to meet and discuss this. The war is straining global economies, and both sides have a lot at stake.

It’s all part of a bigger geopolitical strategy. Attacking Iran is also about China’s energy dependence. Israel has been eyeing this for years, but they underestimated Iran’s pushback.

I’m not so sure about assuming it’s all sabotage. Maybe some are just natural accidents, but the ones happening in war-torn areas? Those could be planned to create chaos.

Wait, how did you flip everything so dramatically? Did you just pull that out of thin air? Let's break it down.

Let me ask you this do you actually buy stuff from stores? You wait for others to make useful things, then just buy them with cash? Why not create your own stuff instead of acting like BlackRock? Are you just another…

There’s not much regulation where I am, so no crypto taxes for now. I rarely spend Bitcoin because finding merchants is tough. Haven't seen any ATMs either.

Definitely agree. The US has military and geopolitical motives behind wanting Greenland. Bases there would make it easier to keep an eye on Russia and China.

Big business seems unstoppable, yet they can't cater to every segment. Take Coca-Cola; they're too big for small local markets, leaving space for medium and small businesses.

Yeah, accepting reality can be hard. It’s easier to point fingers, but we need to hold ourselves responsible for the changes we want.

The rich are smart. They turn their money into assets that can’t be printed. While new cash floods in, their assets just grow in value, unlike the cash that stays stagnant.

Exactly, the real challenge is building the infrastructure. These engines might be green and all, but setting up the storage and refueling stations? That’s costly and complicated. It’s a big hurdle for sure.

Hydrogen engines are not exactly groundbreaking. What's different here is the way they convert hydrogen to energy. But let's be real, hydrogen needs a full-on infrastructure for fueling. Regular gas stations won’t cut…

Totally! Even if it sounds like a lot, $9 from millions of tourists adds up. If it improves the tourism sector, it’s a win-win. This can be a solid income stream for the government.

Totally agree, hiring the right people is essential. But strict oversight can backfire in a private business setting.

It’s true that reputation matters more. It's hard to keep your rep clean with all the temptations out there. One slip-up, and it could all be gone.

LOL if you’re blaming Trump for 2025’s issues, maybe back up a bit. The economic fallout has been brewing longer than that. COVID, sanctions, and wars all played a part.
