While America Has a Nervous Breakdown, China Is Measuring the Curtains
History has a sense of humor, and it’s rarely kind. As the United States barrels headlong into a Fourth Turning crisis—complete with generational rage, institutional distrust, ritualized protest, economic anxiety, and ideological self-harm—China isn’t protesting anything.

The Political Agenda Behind Year-End ‘Economic Collapse’ Stories

Make Money Not War; My reaction to the headline was the opposite to the one the Wall Street Journal intended.
I have long held that the reason the Arabs stopped fighting Israel was the Arabs were losing money and prestige. Wars are expensive and unless you have a surplus of military-age men that you want to get rid of, you don’t go to war.
Affordability
Democrats have found the new Golden Goose for the elections. Affordability. If they win, I would not hold my breath for prices to drop.
Ford might discontinue entire F-150 Lightning line
It seems that the electric vehicle mandates of the Biden Administration were not greeted with approval by the public, and the public are not choosing to buy the silly things without Federal government bribery.
