Just this week I was driving past a police car parked "into the road" (because there's no offramp to speak of), when the door suddenly opened. I veered to the right slightly just to be cautious and predictably a police officer got out into oncoming traffic, my first thought was, if some poor driver had knocked that policeman down we would hear an account of what a wonderful officer he was and some admonishment about reckless drivers.
Pedestrians do not use the roads properly. Students are the worst offenders. They literally think it's a game. Some race to beat cars, some demonstrate bravado as if to say you better stop..and some cross like a herd of elephants....or maybe deer
And then you have the drivers who encourage them in foolishness by stopping at random places to let them cross, perpetrating the notion that drivers will always see them, will always stop or even be able to stop safely
Do something about the pedestrians. The police have tools so they say to catch drivers violating road rules.
Which of your children to you love the least and would be willing to let them die in hospital because Musk cut off funding for a research program, or subsidies for a given category of illness? How much pain are you willing to endure as you ask others to do so for this grand chaotic cause?
If you believe any of this has anything to do with helping anybody but Trump and Musk I have land to sell you next to the equinor spill.
If all we have to do is endure pain and disruption, why was Musk with Trump on the lawn of the White House trying to hawk Tesla cars? Is he immune to the endure pain mantra? And Trump.. have you noticed that everybody around him ends up in jail? I watch with amazement as in every single case of an independent authority claiming what **he** did caused massive disruption or was blatantly illegal, he says "*I had nothing to do with it, this was this other guys idea*", the latest being his claim that he never signed an order to deport immigrants in violation of a court order!!?? Claimed he didnt know when it was signed cause he didnt sign it. Someone dug up the order signed by him so the White House spokesman said he meant the signing in 1798!!! These are not the radical actions of a disruptor with conviction in any ideal.
It looks to me like Elon Musk is a person who has to be busy doing "something" all the time. It looks like he's not someone who could sit and meditate for a few minutes. It doesnt matter whether the thing is productive, or indeed destructive, the reward is the serotonin high of *busyness* itself. Trump is the evil twin who wants to be front and center of the news headlines as a "strongman" all the time, so if he has to stir up WWIII to do so, he will. One crisis cant simmer properly before he manufactures another. What a combo.
Clearly you dont understand what's going on in the world. Prices never "*came down*". They found an alternative source for eggs not affected by bird flu. It is still up in the air what this million dollar levy on chinese manufactured cargo ships or the alternately proposed tax per ton of cargo will do to prices. This would increase the price of **everything... exponentially**, but yes the eggs may be cheap
Any Bahamian who isnt out of their Trump fever dream at this point is a lost cause
You missed the part where I said *after pushback the deal is up in the air*. So their original intent to pull out of 43 ports is still a thing but not conclusive... according to Reuters today. Your point was noone would budge. My point is plenty already have. Trumps issue was always the Chinese controlling the port.
It means there appear to be no objective logical reason for the denials,... in the mind of the person denied a visa of course. So maybe you believe they denied you because they didnt like your shirt.
And after that nice *nobody pushes us around* that he got high fives from everybody on, in today's news the PM is saying, "we're reviewing the Cuba work program"
Yup. Hutcheson pulled out. BlackRock bought controlling stake in the port.
From Reuters today: "*The in-principle agreement to offload its 80% stake in 43 ports across 23 countries came after weeks of Trump alleging, without evidence, that China “is operating” the Panamanian shipping route; he also threatened that the U.S. “is taking it back”*
So correction. It looks like Hutcheson. *tried* to offload its controlling stake, but after pushback in Beijing, the sale is now up in the air
This does not negate the fact that they tried to sell and could still possible close or that we dont have near the leverage China does. Just remember with 800 dead, Tourism was willing to sacrifice all of our lives telling us COVID spread and tourist travel was unrelated.
