    Earthquakes and nuclear power plants

    One can easily locate a facility far enough away or high enough to disregard tsunamis threats. Not so with earthquakes.

    It's already happening, the US tariff on Indonesia is 32%, one of the highest one

    Trump blinked. Except for China, all reciprocal tariffs have a 90 day pause. I owe this to his wall street supporters falling away from him and that all those countries he was claiming that were contacting him to make deals never actually existed. 10% stays in place. He failed yet again. Trump...

    Earthquakes and nuclear power plants

    A few years after the accident I worked with a couple of the airmen assigned to identifying the hazardous material areas. They were as I would have been on another accident the guys with the geiger counters. There wasn't really any excitement from those knowing what happened but those assigned...

    Corporate “Sudden Death Syndrome”

    The government is saying no reason to close because they are not bankrupt. Business said the strike caused delivery delays and lost business. While it is unfortunate for so many to lose their jobs, actions have consequences and in this case a business decided to just close up. I believe...

    It's already happening, the US tariff on Indonesia is 32%, one of the highest one

    Trump claimed it was all about tariffs on the US goods. EU offered 0 for 0 and trump refused. Said not good enough. So, not about the tariffs after all. Trade imbalance is what he should have said in the beginning. This reciprocal claim is just another lie from trump.

    Weakening IDR

    BI announced as of Tuesday when the markets open they are going to attack the currency loss very aggressively. I believe they have said similar in the past and the Rupiah only fell more.

    It's already happening, the US tariff on Indonesia is 32%, one of the highest one

    It has been mentioned that these are not really tarrifs based on reciprocal tarrifs. That is just another lie or completely having no knowledge of what he's getting behind. Probably both. They are for most cases the difference in trade Ballance and his drugs have taken over if he thinks he is...

    It's already happening, the US tariff on Indonesia is 32%, one of the highest one

    Sure but he shouldn't be too confident that everyone will agree to his terms. Look at Vietnam. They agreed to drop their tarrifs if and when they and the US can come to an agreement in a trade deal. Let's not forget that China is right at the door step already with a big foot in the door.

    Earthquakes and nuclear power plants

    I don't understand a nation that is full of active volcanoes doesn't key on tapping them for thermo power. That has to be a lot of places hotter than you know what not too far under foot. Areas around the vast shores have pretty much constant wind along with the higher elevations for wind...

    Trumponomics

    I look at musk out there saying how it all needs to be free trade as a way for musk to be out there saying, let me sell my cars there with no added cost.

    Trumponomics

    Never thought I would say this but the Chinese gov is clearly out smarting the US Administration. Not only holding things back but implementing Tariffs on agriculture goods that will affect the red states who overwhelmingly voted for trump. They are turning his backers against him. Of course...

    It's already happening, the US tariff on Indonesia is 32%, one of the highest one

    Indonesia is sending a group of trade negotiators to Washington to try and work out a deal with the US Administration. Hopefully Indonesia realizes that the tax/duties/tariffs they demand from the US goods will have to be on the table. They probably can't get away with just saying they will just...

    Earthquakes and nuclear power plants

    I could have sworn this discussions was about nuclear power and earthquakes. Now it took a turn to nuclear power and tsunamis. I do believe and know from living in Japan for 2 years that earthquakes are a regular occurrence, not so much tsunamis. Boats are built to float on water just like...

    Heard and McDonald Islands: 10% (charges U.S. 10% Evidently the penguins are charging the US 10% since that's all that populate Heard island and no one lives on McDonald Island either.

    Did not the nuclear bomb precede nuclear energy plants? Didn't the research driven by the development within it's program lead to all the nuclear developments across the scientific world that came after?

    Stone the crows. How will this go down in Bali?

    Women know the road map to their pleasure. Men haven't a clue to how to read it and need to take a long time to learn the basics of that map. Any man or partner that can't take or refuses to take guidance from the map keeper will fail time after time. One department that one needs to listen and...

    Trumponomics

    Business will not move back or to the US. Manufacturing can take 3 to 5 years to build the business. With trump's flip flop on tariffs creating an uncertainty if your into the second year of building, tariffs go away. The only thing trump has created with tariffs is the same thing he has created...
