    The funniest thing is that all the while China is the largest creditor of USA by far, and USA has had foreign investment pouring in overall all those decades.

    USA had the money not just to maintain but rapidly advance, and a head start. To bite the dust in this situation is some serious incompetence.







  • And industry certainly didn’t have to. Whilst Trump is wrong about the effects of trade deficit, he wasn’t wrong about it posing problems for US. Trade deficit isn’t a bad thing, because if done wisely import is essentially foreign investment in domestic production.

    The fact that US manufacturers struggle is another way Trump represents the US: the US personified is a horrible short-sighted businessman that can’t get ahead with decades of a head start and endless investment pouring in.

    Minivans/MPVs are so much better family cars in practice it isn’t even funny.

    They are comfier. Less ground clearance drives better and is more economical. They are actually effective at occasional cargo hauling. And so on. Luckily they seem on the uptick, SUVs are a devolution in practical aspects.
