A possibility but with the cutting of red tape, tax breaks, cheaper to export, oil prices down, and last I heard 70+ countries ready to make deals and so far it seems many are leading towards 0%. This potentially will give us buffer room for the lag time of domestic company investment. Which is greatly needed. We saw at the start of Covid how China restricted medical supplies that we needed or sent us faulty covid tests. Now they are trying to restrict rare metals. It should have never came to the point where a sovereign super power depends on their enemy for crucial supplies. If anything, this is the wake up call our country needs.

Depends what 0% even means though compared to dollars. There's a big difference between the value of the US dollar and the value of the Mexican Peso so also in the value of the Chinese,Canadian ect.. What does 0% even mean?

Blurring the line between "practice" and what is right on principle is not my world view. Instead of just saying that is wrong to break a treaty, we have all this justification and it is boring.

All good. moving one, much like the hatred of the jews thread, some provide cover for evil, I cannot deal with Mr. Theosis anymore and even while we all slip into "juvenility" hopefully most of us work to come out of it.

When you are drinking too much KoolAid from conspiracy channels you have no clue what you say anymore and avoid questions in relations to dates and prior consequences, including fine-details which at this point you don't even absorb.
That happens a lot to liberals now.

Who is justifying breaking a treaty? But it isn't like this is the first treaty that a world leader has broken. For more than 40 years I have been preaching that the world is a condemned building and now is the time to get out before the Lord comes and tears it all down. So what, now I'm supposed to get bent out of shape that the Lord is coming to tear it all down?

I have seen within the last week an exponential increase in the number of people on Christian Chat posting a little bit more deeply about the economics of the United States of America. This is the biggest sign to me that MAGA supporters and those trying to remain on the fence have finally begun to worry that this is the controlled demolition of the United States of America. MAGA and those trying to remain on the fence are very agitated and angry. MAGA, what took you so long? :eek:

The controlled demolition of the United States of America is not real because United States of America is a hologram.

The problem in today's world is not so much technical, but an acknowledgment problem.
This is what Trump is trying to correct, the whole skewed mindset caused from the left which turns anything factual into fantasy.

As someone who's been dealing with computers for close to 30 years, the issue with a lot of clueless managers is not the data that's glaring them in the face, it's admitting that the problem is real and then, which is ever harder for them, how to fix it.

So a dumb politician is always doing to be dumb, especially if they come from some out-of-touch elitist school where they don't teach any practical values.

Because of NATO the EU and US use several different systems. The US military also uses Eutelsat(French/German) also one is Geo and the other Leo so helps with latency issue.

The more they talk about the economics of the United States of America, the more they realize this is a controlled demotion. They wouldn't be talking about this so much about this on Christian Chat in the last week if they didn't reach the conclusion we reached a long time ago.

That is what is called a spurious relationship. Tariffs being at the forefront currently is what is driving the increased chatter about the subject. I haven't seen where MAGA advocates have changed their views. I'm just seeing the anti-MAGA people crying more loudly.

I have to say that his post number 3,608 is his biggest accomplishment in putting words together instead of choosing LazyCrazyBoringTube.
Baby steps. Let's rejoice in baby steps.

NATO members build different things for NATO to use but then there's the US/NATO divorce talk. NATO is pretty intertwined captive/non-captive which is why I speak quite a bit about the NATO/EU/US trust as partners. Things like these communication systems or buying F-35 fighters hang in the balance depending on if the US is going to remain a partner in NATO. https://www.defense.gov/News/News-S...in-program-to-provide-satcom-support-to-nato/

We aren't trying to get rid of allies. We are attempting to upgrade the ones we have.
Why do you suppose there is a war going on in Europe for over 3 years but it is only now that European nations are arming up?

I think there will be some who go down with the ship, while the Captain escapes, shouting "We have no King but Caesar."

Perhaps I am wrong, but the vitriol against Thomas Massie, Rand Paul and Ron Paul tells me a lot if you read the comments on X.

People are emotionally invested, that is so evident on this thread, they scoff and mock because they cannot deal even with the slightest chance that Trunk is really not who they need him to be.

For all the brilliance of Bensent and Marin which @cv5 brought up there are other factors to consider,
for one human nature is not always rational and
second Americans have very little understanding of ancient cultures and how they think and view America.
