Not true at all. The Haavara Agreement (Hebrew: הֶסְכֵּם הַעֲבָרָה, romanized: heskem haavara, lit. 'transfer agreement') was an agreement between Nazi Germany and Zionist organizations signed on 25 August 1933. The agreement was finalized after three months of talks by the Zionist Federation of Germany, the Anglo-Palestine Bank (under the directive of the Jewish Agency) and the economic authorities of Nazi Germany. It was a major factor in making possible the migration of approximately 60,000 German Jews to Palestine between 1933 and 1939. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haavara_Agreement

It's obvious isn't? Canada is the Sudetenland, so many English speakers there, soon to be annexed. China is Russia, obviously, they are ACTUALLY communist, at least on paper. So we just have to watch out for the British to carpet bomb New York, Boston and Miami if they don't get that trade deal. Jewish newspapers can see it clearly, only we can't.

Actually those economists were right. The academic research has now shown irrefutibly that QE does raise inflation. It's not "nonsense", it's cold hard academic consensus now. Nonsense would be to claim that QE does not cause inflation. And btw, inflation in the Obama years was not unusually low by any means. Of course it takes time for inflation to develop. It doesn't happen over a week or two.

I guess I just can't believe it's all happening, that Trump is really doing what he's doing. It's all too good to be true. All joking aside, I do fear Chinese negotiators will be tough opponents for the US team, in the past the Chinese have won most negotiations. And it would be easy for Trump to concede, to avoid some pain for the US economy. Let's see what happens. Trump's team looks good this time around, Scott Bessent is most impressive.

Do you really think anyone could control Trump? Melania sure can't.

Indeed, China's economic Stalingrad is still to come. Exciting times ahead.

Opinion Russian Teacher to Thais: Drop ‘Farang’ if 'Ni Hao' Offends
Cameroni replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You're twisting my melon Man!!! Of course if it's a good buddy you can greet him with "Wazz up manwhore", who cares, I thought' you'd greet a Thai park ranger with "Jo San". I hope not for your sake. "Hey Esse" is not Spanish, what are you talking about? Don't greet people in Russian. Just don't. Be cool,. Just. BE. COOL. -
indeed it has taken time to understand the true effects of Quantitative Easing, whilst it was always assumed that it would increase inflation, this has now been confirmed by academic research. The only thing is that there is indeed not a "mechanical relationship" between QE and inflation, it can take time for the effects to appear. Like with any disease. However, Obama inherited very low inflation 0.1%, and in his first year, when QE started, it was 2.7% and then 3% in 2011. it stands to reason that printing money and QE will increase inflation, and indeed they have.

We are already in an intense trade war, however, I also have my doubts on whether Trump will see it through. My fear is that Trump will negotiate with China and then concede too much, just to avoid some mid-term pain fot the US economy. Whenever China has negotiated with the US before it has usually bested the US negotiators. Your analysis of the US domestic political situation is as good as any, but there are too many variables, it is a bit like predicting the stock market. A lot can change still. Still, in the short term a lot of people will not like the effect of Trump's tariffs, which will indeed make things more expensive. Trump needs to explain to the American people that it is a price worth paying for economic souvereignty and future growth, but it is a hard sell. Whether JD Vance will win or not, who knows, he is a golden orator. One thing is for sure, if he does win, he will be significantly more extreme than Trump. As for antibodies it appears the US has enough for decades, certainly years. There should be no issue. The supply chain currently, btw, looking at all indicators is exceptionally healthy and at pre-covid levels. Obviously since cars are made up of so many different parts from so many different countries, covid's travel restrictions had a dire impact, but travel restrictions are not in place now to the same extent.

That's the wrong logic. You're comparing apples with oranges. Obviously the rampant poverty in Philippines contributes to crime being high in Phil. What you should ask is how high would crime be in Phil if it had 5 star hotel prisons like Denmark. But yes, Filipinos are people unusually inclined towards crime and violence in particular. You wouldn't think so in how they smile at you, but you would be wrong. Be very careful with Filipinos.

There will be the odd product where it will be very difficult to produce it in the US, even impossible perhaps, however, you have to weigh that up against the US regaining its economic souvereignty in being able to produce its own medicines, steel, aluminium etc. Overall, becoming more self sufficient will be a huge plus for the US.
-
I don't know if this is true ignorance or outright malicious lies, but of course it was under Obama that the Fed truly started it's massive quantative easing policy. As academic research has proven, quantitative easing increases inflation. So very true, and especiallly true under Obama. Indeed some inflation is healthy and acceptable, however, clearly it has become a major problem due to the Fed printing money, buying assets it shouldn't and keeping interest rates too low for too long. Yes, China is experiencing deflation and it is worse than inflation clearly. Trump's tariffs will not boost inflation. In the long term as manufacturing returns to the US and goods become more expensive due to being made in the US inflation will naturally decrease.
-
It is an ardous and difficult path to be sure. However, if you consider that Americans are 4% of the population and consume 18% of the planet, perhaps making things more expensive in the US will be a good thing for the planet. American consumers of course will have to rethink a bit, but clearly a change could benefit Americans and the world. Trump has to fight many wars, internally there is a big question mark if he will be able to rally enough people to accomplish his goals, whether he will sabotaged, indeed possibly killed. Externally the risk of wars is higher than it has ever been in our lifetime. So yes, the stakes are very high. However, Trump's sensible approach in wanting to end the Ukraine war shows he is no war monger. It would actually have been beneficial for the US to continue to bleed out Russia. Clearly Trump is a man of peace though.

The real cause of inflation is the Fed printing money and making cheap loans, thus unleashing years of consumer spending that is not sustainable. While Covid and Ukraine exacerbated inflation, the true underlying cause is the printing of money and the unbridled loans and consumer spending dynamic. This could not go on indefinitely. What producing in the US will mean is that indeed prices go up, therefore consumer spending goes down, and inflation also will go down. So Trump is well on the path to solving the inflation problem, something his predecessors completely neglected. If he puts someone in the Fed who understands his plan, then the printing of money and excessive consumer spending due to cheap loans will end, possibly, and the US will have lower inflation than Germany had when the Deutschmark was still around.

If the price for penicilliln will go up a bit, and it surely will, it's a small price to pay for NOT being dependent on China. The US needs to be self-sufficient in key areas like medicines, so it can take care of its own populace in times of stress. We've seen with Covid what happens when a real crisis occurs, everyone for themselves. To be dependent on China for anything is a terrible position to be in. Better to pay a bit more and have control of your own supply of medicines.

You've got to be joking, prison should be like in the Philippines, 38 in one room, with one toilet, not like a 5 star hotel with aircon. Where's the deterrent in that? See a civilized country like Thailand gets this right, only an uncivilized country like Denmark would pamper criminals so they offend again. We show little concern? How much concern did you show for your fellow man, woman and child when you sloshed whiskey and got behind the wheel drunk? You could have killed someone. You're the dark side. Not us. We're the light, making you understand how unacceptable this behaviour is. It's not hatred, it's tough love. I'm also considerably younger than you. And I'm not "spiteful", I sympathise with your suffering, because I too, believe it or not, spent a night in Thai jail. In my case however I was actually innocent. You're guilty as hell.

No Powell's slowness in reducing interest rates can create serious economic issues in the current climate. There has to be some synergy between the fed and the executive in this climate.

You are mistaking outsourching to save costs for lack of capacity. An easy mistake to make. However, the US pharma industry can easily make penicillin. They have just outsourced it to China because it is cheaper. This of course illustrates why Trump is right and a shift has to happen.
-
Lol, naturally the cost will be different. But of course almost all items can be sourced elsewhere. So 40% of global production can be had, so plenty for the US, especially considering the US will recycle rare earths. Looks like Germany and Japan will be getting a lot more business in the future, both reliable suppliers of precision mahcinery parts. Germany of course is also huge in solar panel production, Japan in lithium ion battery cells. Again looks like BASF of Germany and possible some British companies can provide these instead. So just cheaper, but can be obtained from many places. Okay then.
-
He never liked Powell, in his view Powell always lowered interest rates too late and was too cautious. Powell's comments that inflation was only a temporary phenomenon and nothing to worry about did not inspire confidence in anyone really, clearly his days are numbered because he is not considered competent. Trump's tariffs are working amazingly well, nations are falling overthemslves to offer the US better trade conditions. Most are looking at buying more American products to avoid future tariffs. Yes, it can take time, but they are working very well already.

He wiped off billions of billionaires' portfolios! He doesn't care much about billionaires and CEOs.

7.25 bn dollars per month? That Trump sure knows how to make money out of nothing. Amazing.
