There will be a time when enough is enough… have anyone ever wondered which country is the big soyabeans exporter? It’s Brazil! Why? Remember the last US-China trade war in Donald Trump first term? That’s why! Not even real historical reason… in the end who lose? American farmers… that’s how you bring America, gradually but surely down… we are witnessing history, the slow passing of an era right before our eyes. Not many can say they have witnessed the raise and fall of an empire. We can claim that! [Sly][Cool][Chuckle][Evil] Not sure if anyone will ever read this post though… 🤞🙏

Word of the year... Tariff

@Ah_Meng
Did my new usual jog this afternoon. Weather remains nice, warm ☀️ with a cool breeze. My fitness struggle on the other hand continues. Enough of me... back to the fun stuff... tariffs! Every media I turned this morning was Tariffs! Have you ever wondered how the tariffs were calculated? Or are they simply numbers plucked from the sky? It's funny actually, but they did calculate... Just that the calculation is silly 😜... What they did was using the total trade balance divide by total imports from that country. For example, US imported a lot more from China, the above value works out to be 67%. That's the so-called 67% tariff China charged US! Why 34% tariff for China then? That is the so-called 50% discount! 😱🤯🙀 What silly nonsense? Did anyone ask why Russia is not in the list? Even Australia which US has a trade surplus has a 10% on it! Curious, isn't it? That's Donald Trump for you. Why would he charge his best mate? What does that mean to US and the whole world? MAGA - Make America Grim (Grey) Again! The time has not come... This is not the end of the world. What Donald Trump did is a mere cowardice bullying tactic. He thinks that the world leaders would negotiate with him to get a (better) deal! Sure, $1000 extra for the fish bone, never mind if you don't want it. I will still charge for it. Oh? I can give you 50% discount! That's first come first serve! [Spurting] [Facepalm] [Duh] [Smug] It has demonstrated before. People remembers. Leaders will progressively move away from US and form different alliances. They know, friends or foes, you will get charged! Unless of course you are your name is Putin... [Chuckle] [Evil] [OMG] [Silence] @TigerStars @Daily_Discussion @CaptainTiger
