Old-School Conservative. I used to be a republican, now I'm a hippie. Still trying to get my picture on The Rolling Stone.

...the US has been reneging on this "agreement" since day one. Probably safe to say it no longer is a viable agreement.

Learned the hard way that "upgrading" to a more expensive piece of audio equipment with much better specs, doesn't bring the joy that I thought it would. In fact, I liked to older equipment better, so I guess I'll be downgrading back to what I used to have here in the near future? (lol)

China is becoming a renewables superpower And is reaping the benefits, exporting tech to the rest of the world and cutting it's fossil fuel imports Reform UK want to do the opposite, putting all of their chips on a dying energy sector Reform would put the UK in reverse gear

China's green energy boom could spell the end of the fossil fuel age
China has put its economic might behind renewable technologies in a desire to stop relying on imported fossil fuels.

For the record. My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers. I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."

...also, keep in mind that it was Trump who in his first term first said that there were only 5 cases of covid in the US and there was nothing to worry about. Later he said if we quit testing for covid the numbers would be a lot lower. Sticking your head in the sand doesn't fix anything.

You're used to MAGA reporters who never tell you anything you don't want to hear. For instance, keep watching FOX news and come back to this thread if/when you hear FOX report about declining US corporate investment. Trump just blames Powell for everything, but you can't fool the bond markets.

...hugely perplexing. But lets see what happens when reality starts to hit the market square in the face over the next couple of months. And if the markets do take a nose dive into the end of the year, will long-term investors be brave enough to come back in?

I don't think the Powell lowering the bank rate will help bring down mortgage rates. The problem is over-supply of treasury debt into a world that no longer holds the US dear to its hearts. I get the sense that the bond markets are in control right now and an instable FED will weaken the US.

Some homeowners in flood zones are required to carry flood insurance, most of this is paid to FEMA. So dispending FEMA would mean giving up a revenue source.
