Here are some things we could do to protect our economic power that have been proven to work for damn near a(n American) century: 1) Encourage/promote global free trade with minimal barriers/tariffs. 2) Invest in and encourage higher education, as a huge (and growing) % of our wealth is derived...

Fuck no. That would create issues Trump has no plan whatsoever to deal with.

WTF are you talking about? The new president is Maduro's VP, not the man who rightfully won the last election or the woman who would have if she wasn't in exile, because Trump doesn't think she's popular enough (and since she stole his prize).

If the guarantees are as strong as he says, Russia will not agree. And if Russia agrees, the guarantees aren't strong at all.

Wait what? There is no modern history of aggression from Japan to China? I agree they are likely no current threat but holy crap w/r/t the relative (and fairly recent) history of Japanese depredations towards the Chinese and that of, checks notes, Venezuela towards the US😆. Or Ukraine towards...

That is/would be the tractor trailer size plot hole in the show thus far, and will diminish it if left unexplained. As it has been established that the hivemind cannot lie, it seems inconceivable that Carol isn't more curious. Especially after the revelation of the impending famine. I guess they...

Are we sure they weren't just making a potato cannon?

I'm not even a democrat and I'll vote straight democrat until whatever the fuck that thing is that calls itself the republican party pulls it head out of its ass. If you aren't willing to get off your butt and vote straight democratic then you have no business calling yourself sane, ethical or...
