      Did you seriously just say 'Chinese *and American* animosity" is increasing on Taiwan....?
      I'm sorry but that's just backwards, one is literally sending out threatening videos of simulated bombings/invasions and saying 'we will invade & take Taiwan by force',
      And the other (US) is saying 'we'll help you out if you get attacked/invaded Taiwan', and btw in the most diplomatic/least provoking way possible.
      The animosity is 100% coming from one side (CCP)

    Masterworks sold only 15 out of their several hundred because those were the only ones awarding double digit returns. Masterworks is growing because of its advertising, which pins itself for years entirely on the sales of those 15 sales.
    For comparison, buying an ETF for 15 of the world's biggest indices would not only allow the investor to capitilze during boom cycles around the world but also diversify in the totality of all human productive enterprise in every sector.
    Art is not an investment, it's a tax shelter. Masterworks is preys on the public's ignorance, impatience, and gullibility. Contributing to the problem for a sponsorship is just as bad as being a snake oil broker. Just because you didn't make the claims or brand the oil doesn't mean its ethical to peddle the snake oils and parrot the claims of other swindlers.

      Sure, that phrase, "Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell," has become a bit of an internet meme and a representation of the educational system. It humorously points out how in-depth biology lessons often focus on certain specific facts (like the role of mitochondria in cells) while not directly addressing broader topics (like geopolitics). So, in the context of a geopolitics discussion, it could be a playful way of saying the conversation is straying into unexpected or unrelated areas.

Nobody was trying to overthrow the country or take over the country. Admittedly, some of the people present got a little out of hand and broke laws. Not everyone who entered the capital building broke laws that day.

      Australia is also ramping up rare earth mineral production. The problem is not availability, they're just expensive to extract safely. China took over the rare earth market using it's status as a developing nation to subsidize rare earth mineral production without safety or environmental concerns, under cutting the world market. Once all the competition was forced out due to Chinese prices, the Chinese upped the price of rare earth minerals and now withhold access. The Chinese banked on the high costs of market entry to maintain their monopoly.

    • @recoil53
      @recoil53 9 місяців тому +14

      Actually there is no worry about finding other sources. The worry is about the processing. Rare earths aren't actually that rare. But the processing to get relatively pure volumes of it is relatively dirty.
      Of course they found a lot of lithium in the Salton Sea. They figure there is enough for 40% of world demand from those aquifers alone. Extracting from water should be relatively clean too.

    Nuclear weapons are expensive to maintain. They are delicate devices, and the reaction mass will deform over time due to radioactive decay. If a terrorist group does not have the resources and expertise to maintain a nuke (roughly 1mil USD a year), they will either need to use it quickly, limiting it's utility, or they will have to dismantle it and use the reaction mass to make a dirty bomb. Terrorists getting hold of a nuke and setting it off somewhere isn't impossible, but it is highly unlikely, and if they do it is likely to be in the same region in which they acquired it. They might take control of a missile silo and launch it immediately, but they won't be able to keep possessive of it.
    More concerning might be terrorists getting the nukes and quickly trading them to rogue states that do have the resources to maintain them - but in this scenario, these states are almost certainly going to use them for deterrence.

    As much as i would like to see a Mexico with a more diverse manufacturing economy. Im a little skeptical that investors would invest in expensive factories, today in mexico most of the expensive factories that do generate the most wealth are located in some of the safest states/cities. Aside from that the population looks like its about decline same as here in US. When i talk to my family and friends south of the border i see that the desires of having a family heavily decline

    It may sound like science fiction, but as space exploration progresses and humans begin to live on other celestial bodies, perhaps the problem will be more a conflict between celestial bodies, such as the Earth versus the Moon, for example, than a competition between nations on Earth, such as the United States, China, and Russia, in space. This is because people will unite over similarities and oppose each other over differences.

      And after 2014, 98-99% of people do not want to live in Ukraine, according to the parable that they were deprived of pensions, water, electricity in one day.
      After such actions, the Russians delivered water by sea, brought a huge pile of generators, after which people charged their phones on the streets. Not to mention the banal things like turning on the lights, and people remembered the evenings with candles.
      It was after such actions that the Russians built a bridge 19 km long .
      If we talk about the new two regions (not counting Donetsk and Lugansk).
      Then this is Russia, because the vote was held, the infrastructure is being restored (which has not been built since 1990), new schools, houses, hospitals are being opened.
      In a couple of years, people will remember Ukraine as a nightmare.

    Wanted to clear up a misconception in this video regarding the United States. We are not now, have never been, and will never be a democracy. Our president is elected by the states with each state having 2 votes based on the number of senators per state and the rest being based on population at a rate of 1 per roughly 700,000 citizens with a minimum of 1. It is up to the each state's legislature to determine how that state wants to award those votes. Currently, most states go for a democratic election. That is not how it originally operated. Originally, the states elected their senators ( who represent the state, not the population) and the senators chose the president.
    That being said, Jan 6th 2021 was not an insurrection. It was a political protest turned riot. Similar to, but less destructive and violent than the 2020 antifa/blm protests/riots. The ultimate goal not being to overthrow the government, but rather to get the government to do it's job as laid out in the constitution.
    As a side note, the 2020 election was decided by a total of 45,000 votes over 3 states. It was well within the candidate's rights to question the results when they are that close.
    One final note on the 2020 election: any voting laws that were changed due to the pandemic that were NOT changed by the states legislation were null and void and thus any votes cast under those laws also null and void. Thus raising questions of the validity of the 45,000 votes that made up the difference.

They've also only sold 15 items in how many years? Seems more like a grift than an opportunity with so few profits considering years of accumulating capital and assets. Illiquidity and duration are costs, that's why art is a bad investment unless you already own a healthy mix of real estate, stocks, ETFs, commodity futures, bonds, currencies, and also already participate in venture capital offerings.
    It's not investing, it's intrinsic value is based entirely on the willingness of 0.0001% of the world's population bidding on it competitively with another member of the same economic minority of the world's population.
    Stocks are ownership of assets and profits of companies which produce value, they're also liquid with preferential tax structure. Masterworks is the epitome of dumb money, not in any way an investment. Everyone needs to use English words with definitions in mind, not just make things up to sound cool.

    Multiple people sharing a nation in Pakistan is a strength. Just like diversity is the strength of the West, diversity is the strength of all nations.

    Thomas Homer-Dixon could very well apply his prediction to Canada as well. The present Liberal party with Justin Trudeau at the helm is showing a lot of clues toward this political direction.
