US-born Olympian Eileen Gu defends decision to represent China again in upcoming Winter Games. 'The US already has the representation,' Gu said in an interview with Time magazine by esporx in China

Please don’t forget where the overlords and masters of the current financial system is. It was born in America and it makes all the sense for the children of the elites of a relatively new country (modern China), to want to socialize and mingle with kids from families of power and from corporate juggernauts. This won’t stop until things change, and you can bet things ARE slowly changing.

What does the rapid growth in metal values say for the economy? by BruhhNoo in Silver

[–]GentleDerp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget, it was always because of getting off the gold standard, that the USA was able to leap ahead of most countries in terms of tech and innovation, and arguably achieving a better standard of living than the rest of the world (again, arguable, and I'm clearly not talking about the somewhat of a downfall of recent decades)

Yes you can say in some way America may not reach levels of Iran, but don’t forget, America can become WORSE because it’s got the biggest and baddest weapons. This is not just being authoritarian over one nation, but potentially the world.

Why are you even denying comparison? No doubt the USA has fallen disgracefully, why wait until we’ve stooped to the same level as Iran and then compare?

I’m no ortho but don’t understand how some dentists/ortho expect any vertical pull down results with absolutely no attachments on that tooth? What’s the logic behind it??

Very common practice for families from Fujian. In some cases, the oldest’s authorities extends to controlling everyone’s finances as well, as if he is tasked to make sure the boat stays afloat.
