  • NATO is both a protection agreement and a tool to bind its members to somel level of US control. A new alliance is needed without the US. It should start with Europe (not just the EU, it should include the UK and non-EU countries) and it could then attract Canada, Australia, Japan, … But that requires members to get their shit together and rebuild their respective armies. And all the countries that bought F35 just bound themselves to the US for decades again. So it looks really bad right now.





  • If you want cheaper cars, that’s easy: drop the tariffs on Chinese cars and let them flood the market. Now you have cheap cars and your car makers are dead.

    Or you can just announce that if the car average price has not dropped by N % by 202x, you will drop the tariff, and see that your local carmaker are perfectly capable of proposing cheaper vehicles.

    And in parallel, given you figure people can no longer afford cars due to salary crunch by inflation, you can develop public transportation.

    Oh well… except if the whole thing is just an excuse to deregulate for the benefits of your rich and powerful CEO pals and their shareholders…
