Trump is moving America down the value chain
as countries move into a possible recessin and economic on the dole, gold usually increases in value, oil usually drops drastically as folks cease to spend money on unnecessary travel. IThe reason the US has poor trade policies is in the hands of whatever administration negotiates - between Mexico, Canada and the US, Trump and his team negotiated the NAFTA agreement during his first term. Now he doesn't like it. The world is a lot different today but the US consumers are still the big spenders in the buying of necessities, especially if the prices are cheap. Yeah, much from China I would not even consider buying including food stuffs (fruits and veggies in the grocery stores, I always check from where and if not on any label I ask the store employees in that section and they look it up and show me if it is not China). Biden's administration - Have known what a loser he is since 60's, I worked in Delaware and heard nothing positive about him as an elected official from all my co-workers. I have been anti-democrat since I was old enough to vote - got that from my parents and their dislike of the support from the Democrats that they and their co-workers got. I didn't like Nixon's faults and quit the Republican Party to be Independent and as life goes on, don't have much positive to say about any politicians, US or otherwise as all seem to basically be of the same mold, teat suckers instead of truly working for the betterment of their constituents and country. I realize some may be good but like I said I haven't met any of those. MHO of course. -

Did we have the best of it ? Is Britain Lost ?
All my life people have said it was better in the good old days. With the 70s, there was National Front, Gary Glitter on Top of the Pops and Jim Fixed It. The memories are illusory. Cicero apparently said "Times are bad. Children no longer obey their parents, and everyone is writing a book". Only he didn't. The Chaldean King, Naram Sin, in 5000BC said "We have fallen upon evil times, the world has waxed old and wicked. Politics are very corrupt. Children are no longer respectful to their elders. Each man wants to make himself conspicuous and write a book." But againm he probably didn't. But someone thought this in 1908 when these quotes first appeared in print. People have always complained life was better in the past. Daniel Defoe (Robinson Crusoe etc) coined "the Gold Old Days", referring to trade. Research shows as we age, our memory becomes increasingly selective. https://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2003/06/aging-memory Basically as we age, we become more preoccupied with the end. A physiological reaction is to recall more positive memories. I'm not sure if its part of a defensive reaction by the brain (I don't know, changing dopamine, serotonin levels etc) as we gradually lose our faculties. Its a casual observation that those who beat the odds and make it to extreme old age, tend to be very optimistic people. They are very optimistic about the present (life is wonderful and all that). My father passed away a couple of years ago. He had Alzheimers. We were lucky that he didn't forget us. Sometimes he would have momentary struggle to recognise me, but that quickly passed. My grandfather though completely forgot he had a son, and he was very frightened as a result. Towards the end, my father's anecdotes were increasingly when he was a young child in WW2. For him, these were happy memories of going to sleep in the garden air raid shelter, and how all the adults saved their egg ration for him. Its a bit curious, because objectively, he had a sad childhood. His father said goodbye to him in 1940, ended up captured at Singapore, and everyone in the family thought he was dead until 1944. I suspect his mum struggled. His dad got back by 1946. By 1950, he had a new baby brother. In 1951, his mum was dead from TB, and his brother went off with her family, and basically not seen again until they were adults. But all my dad remembered was the happy time. Of course, he hadn't forgotten his mum died when he was 11, but it didn't seem to register with him emotionally. And did e really remember being in an air raid shelter. I barely remember when I was 4 or 5; its more a series of fleeting impressions. So perhaps the memories were constructed based on what people talked about afterwards. Yeah, for me the past was better because I was closer to the start. The present is less good because I'm nearer to the end. In the future I am doomed. And my father's end fills me with dread. But maybe I'm not my father. -

Accident Motorbike Racer Critically Injured in Pattaya Tunnel Crash
Picture from responders. A young man was critically injured just after midnight when his motorbike collided with the rear of a parked car on the exit from the Pattaya Klang underpass. The crash occurred on the lane heading towards Sattahip. Rescue workers responded to an emergency call at approximately 00:05 on 19 April, reporting a road traffic crash involving a motorbike and a car. Upon arrival at the scene, authorities found an unconscious male rider, identity unknown, lying face-down in a pool of blood beside his yellow Honda (registration from Chonburi). He was unresponsive and reportedly could not be revived at the scene. Emergency personnel administered CPR and coordinated with Pattaya Patthamakun Hospital’s advanced ambulance unit for urgent hospital transfer. A second rider, identified as 17-year-old Mr Anuchit Phusathong, was also involved in the incident. He had been riding a black-and-red Honda Wave (registration from Chonburi) and sustained minor abrasions. He was treated at the scene but declined further medical attention. According to the driver of the saloon car involved in the crash, he had been heading toward Jomtien when his vehicle ran out of fuel at the exit of the underpass. He stopped the car and turned on the hazard lights while a companion went to purchase petrol. It was then that the two motorbikes, reportedly racing at high speed, entered the tunnel and one of them struck the rear of his stationary vehicle. Under current traffic regulations, motorbikes are strictly prohibited from using the Pattaya Klang underpass in any circumstance. Pattaya City Police officers arrived at the scene to collect evidence and conduct an initial investigation. CCTV footage from the area will be reviewed to determine the exact sequence of events and ensure fairness for all parties involved. -- 2025-04-20 -
