Economy Trump Dishes Out 36% Tariffs in Shock Move Against Thailand
Why the emoji. The USA has not experienced any great benefit since Trump has been playing TACO TACO. On the contrary, the growth that has occurred was primed to occur over a year ago when US budgets were set and spending plans effected. The disorganized cuts from the simpleton expense cuts are only starting to be seen now, and won't really be seen for another 6 months or more since terminated workers were still being paid.The tariffs have not had an impact yet because they keep being postponed and many US businesses stocked up on raw materials, and keep doing so, during the delay. US tourism is taking a hit now. Do you think US 29 billion is easily replaced? https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/us-tourism-will-lose-up-to-29-billion-as-visitors-plummet-amid-trump-policies/ar-AA1HXvcE?ocid=BingNewsSerp You are typical of the US mentality that thinks in immediate terms. The damage being done will take some time to manifest and when it does, it won't be easily shaken off. Canada's military budget is approx. CAD $35 billion and is increasing its military budget by $9 billion. It currently spends 70% of its procurement on US owned or sourced. material. Last month Canada signed on to the EU defence procurement agreement and will start shifting its procurement to the EU. Australia is expected to follow soon. Those are all billions of dollars of purchases that will not go to the USA. people like you are oblivious because you are too busy with your slogans and insults. There is no appetite in Europe to purchase US sourced products or even to visit the USA. The USA can't replace those billions of $$ by repatriating mop production from Mexico, nor can the USA force anyone to buy US products if they are of shoddy quality and not competitively priced. -

Politics Pheu Thai’s Casino Dream Collapses as Cabinet Bows to Public Pressure
Composite courtesy of Thai PBS World In a dramatic turn of events, the Cabinet has scrapped the contentious Integrated Entertainment Complex bill from parliamentary discussion. Dubbed the ‘casino bill’, this high-profile venture was a cornerstone of the Pheu Thai-led government, spearheaded by Paetongtarn Shinawatra. Government spokesman Jirayu Houngsub announced the withdrawal post-Cabinet meeting, citing a request from the Finance Ministry. This decision effectively halts the government's vision for the complex, which was anticipated to feature a casino and various entertainment attractions. The bill had met fierce opposition and sparked public protests, despite assertions from the government that it would lure investment, tackle illegal gambling, and boost tourism in Thailand. Plans indicated a casino occupying no more than 10% of the complex, with the rest devoted to amenities like amusement parks, theatres, and sports arenas. Initially included in Paetongtarn's policy agenda upon her September appointment as prime minister, the bill had secured Cabinet backing on March 13. It was fast-tracked for a review by the Council of State, designed to ensure swift passage through Parliament. However, an April announcement from Paetongtarn delayed its first reading, citing more pressing national priorities. She assured it was merely postponed, with a plan to reintroduce it during the July parliamentary session. Following a Cabinet reshuffle on June 30, a reassessment led to the Finance Ministry’s successful request for withdrawal. Jirayu noted broader social implications as a factor, stressing the need for extended public dialogue. Political analysts suggest the move reflects Pheu Thai’s precarious position in Parliament, especially after the Bhumjaithai Party’s coalition exit. Complications compounded when Paetongtarn faced suspension by the Constitutional Court for alleged ethical breaches linked to a leaked recording with Cambodian leader Hun Sen. Deputy Finance Minister Julapun Amornvivat expressed regret over the decision, acknowledging, "it’s not the appropriate time." He lamented the lost opportunity for economic stimulation and growth. The bill’s suspension underscores the complexities and challenges of navigating political and societal landscapes, as Thailand grapples with balancing economic development with public consensus and ethical governance.

Well no, retard. I posted a response. You had two choices. 1. Ignore it. 2. Read it, respond, either by agreeing with the points made, or disagreeing. But no, you went for the retard option number 3, by googling for an Internet Acronym used commonly in veiled insults and threats, to earn Forum Likes and Cred. You are the one who threw out the insult first, acting like a child rather than an adult. I treated you like a child considering you responded in a manner akin to a 12 year old. If you lack the ability, through a medical condition, to read more than 1 paragraph at a time, fair enough. The current US Health Secretary is launching an urgent investigation into why America alone has seen an explosion of diagnosed ADHD and Autism cases. FAS is a common cause when the condition is diagnosed in adults. I think he's misunderstanding the data though. Autism is at the same rate as its always been, but now its diagnosed more frequently. Before, there was no diagnosis. -

That is proper banana republic and a surefire way for an airline to lose customers. Hope it wasn’t a connecting international flight! Did others miss it?
