Ok let's crunch a few small numbers
50% of nuclear reactors under construction are in China.
China has 70% of the new wind installed capacity while the United States has 14%
China is far outpacing any other country in solar energy expansion. The difference between China and second-place U.S. is four times greater.
While nubnuts is stuck on stupid and yelling like a moron drill baby drill, China is quietly plugging away.
This is simply history repeating itself. Britain built an empire out of coal, while the US switched to oil, and the rest is history.
The US elected the wrong guy at the worst possible time. This man is hindering progress because he's too old school and he just simply does not understand the new world. Everything is slowly slipping away while he tries to hold on like a Neanderthal.

Being humble these days is a quality/trait sadly lacking in society as a whole . I guess we’re from different generations from many on here. . Success and happiness comes in many forms not tied to materialism or capital worth.

Only my simple humble opinion after looking through a prism at today’s society.

Maybe someone should highlight the fact that certain people on FF are using the exact same words and phrases as the media outlets paid off by left wing USaid. USaid is the same people who pay people to rise up against their country's leadership...it's called a Color Revolution.

Once one realizes this, then the people spouting the paid for ideologies have zero credibility. And, the money is drying up because USaid has been shut down, the ngo's are running out of money and these propagandists are going to disappear.

For the person(s) propagandizing for the CCP/China's clean energy, it is very easy to find research showing that China has expanded their coal production 4.4% month over month as of September. In fact, over 64% of their electricity comes from coal. Just like in every other country, China is using "clean" energy production as propaganda to make the people feel good about the leadership.

A house of cards falls apart over time.

Would anyone like to comment about the nazi's running ukraine or the nazi's who got their wish of taking over Europe and did it without a fight via the european union decades ago?

The current goal of the world economic forum and other davos types is to further divide and conquer with the end result being 10 political regions.

In the end, you will not be allowed to trade because no one will be allowed to own anything.

So, shut up, focus on what the charts tell you because trading will be there and the next day it will be gone forever with NO warning.

For you crypto people, remember 1 thing: China flipped the switch and turned it off. This can happen anywhere at any time. Would you rather have a crypto leaning leader who you dislike or a crypto hating leader that you love?

Have you ever realized that when something is bad for you, you have to be marketed to and coerced into doing it and it's usually a government or government entity/ngo paying for it?

Why is that?

If it's good for you you don't need to be marketed to or forced by the tip of a weapon to do it.

Production from Federal lands accounts of only 12% of total US oil production, and about the same % of total nat gas production. About half of all leases on US federal lands for oil/gas production are owned by foreign companies.

“ Dominance “ - seems to be a key word of late .

The US -centric theme will eventually have repercussions for the US . There’s some good common sense policies being implemented, which are being countered by some narrow minded political agenda .

Decide for yourselves which is which lol

The US has begun the process of fossilification.
The Chinese have 1.4 billion people united under one party all synchronised to achieve it's goals. The Americans are caught up in a two party system both pulling in opposite directions and on the verge of a civil war and every 4 or 8 years undoing each other's achievement. One step forward 2 steps backwards.
The Chinese have found the recipe. One communist party under a capitalist economy working in tandem to improve and protect its society and that of the world.
In the US you have a parasitic oligarchy devouring it's host.

The conservative elite in the Weimar Republic became increasingly frustrated with continuing economic and political instability, their lack of real power and the rise of communism. They believed that a return to authoritarian rule was the only stable future for Germany which would protect their power and money. They believed that they could use Hitler and his popular support to ‘democratically’ take power. Once in power, Hitler could destroy the political left. Destroying the political left would help to remove the majority of political opponents from the ring-wing conservative elite. Once Hitler had removed the left-wing socialist opposition and destroyed the Weimar Republic, the conservative elite thought they would be able to replace Hitler and appoint a leader of their choice. Once elected, the conservative elite soon realised that they had miscalculated Hitler and his intentions.

Could this qualify as a blueprint?

The interesting detail is that all of the producers of oil and gas want higher prices and lower production. The US doesn't have the reserves that can be produced at lower prices! How is Team Trump going to achieve this?

I just want to highlight one more thing. In a republic, the representatives elected by the public make the decisions for them. In a true democracy, the people should be involved in all decisions. As an example, the people should have had a say in whether the US should have gone to war in Iraq. I think we are being sold a democracy but we never had one.

What a moron. He literally thinks he can run US like he runs his faglig businesses witb 2000+ court cases. But guess what, these are independent people in independent countries and as great as US is he can only bully through to a certain point. Trump behavior is going to backfire to the entire wirld with less cross border trade and more protectionism.
