@Haiku_Zone Pretty incredible. Or not, maybe? Basically, my favorite thing to do led to one of my favorite movies. Nothing new but a reconnection with deep emotions and a more profound perception of the threads of the tapestry of my life. Thank you.
@Haiku_Zone I guess I can’t post my journey because I don’t have the app but “Surfing in SW France” took me to “Castaway on the Moon” and I almost cried.
@ModeledBehavior I expressed this exact sentiment to my girlfriend, who grew up in Edina,in the parking lot of a supermarket somewhere on the outskirts of St. Paul. We shared a long, silent drive until I finally asked, “Is something wrong?”
@strike_dr My grandfather was a civil rights and labor lawyer and my father told me when I was very, very young that his father told him, “The cops lie.”
One of my earliest memories.
@GordonBrianR Was recently made aware that combined manufacturing capacity of US + Allies (Japan, S. Korea, Germany, etc) is GREATER than China. Would, however, require long-term policy, coordination and diplomacy. Trump is bereft of such qualities.
@joequant What do you think will falter first? Opposition to China FDI or the current risk/reward structure of US financial market? Although I guess you answered that already!
@joequant I fear you overestimate how much Trump cares about winning elections while underestimating the resistance he would face accepting this investment. My guess is more likely the US continues the casino capitalism model.
