You could tell the candidate your concern and they could say that negotiations have failed to the recruiter, as could you and then you both are pulling out.

Yehn just tell the recruiter that they were impressive in interview but seemed not suitable in the role.

Well, Putin was worried their mercenaries might. Then the leader blinked and is now dead.

So your middle ground is to not give passports to trans people that allows them safe passage. Literally, what passports were designed to do.

If their passport doesn’t match their appearance, would that be safe for travel in less welcoming countries? Would it allow them to travel at all, if it didn’t match their presentation? Isn’t that the whole point of a passport? There is no reason for this kind of legal ruling apart from offering a way for bigots to practice bigotry. Nobody will be safer, but trans people will be more at risk.

When there is a shortage of choice, with the same amount of people buying from a smaller supply, do you expect prices to stay the same?

Oh, I certainly agree that r&d is probably higher than manufacture, but they are ninijisibg the cost to replace. There is also runk cost fallacy to consider.

Russia doesn’t have the spare cash lying in the couch as you say and the cost to manufacturer is higher when under sanctions. The ability to manufacturer is also hamstring.

Die nazi

How much do you think it costs to build and launch a new satellite? Do you have enough faith in Russian manufactthat this won’t happen again, in a slightly different way? Will all the replacement money end up where it should?

Yes, but the power still works and you still have cheaper load to allow you to subsidise development of a local market later, should that happen.

So, it is a risk, but not a substantial one. For something that stops working after a disagreement, say like US military equipment, then you’re screwed. Solar keeps working.

Yep, as a business leader, that led in this direction, he’s not leading on taking the blame, is he?

I suppose you could pose the question differently. Who would you give 10,100,1000 to if they said they needed it but they said no questions asked.

I get that. My point is that in arenas that have usually nothing to do with the USA, it’s being talked about as fact that the USA is in a failed state at the moment.

It doesn’t have the dramatics of things like 9/11 that changed the world irrevocably. However, it’s a similar feeling for those not in the USA. The world has changed and won’t be the same. You don’t have to follow the news to be aware.

It’s not just in the news. My husband is a lawyer. He was on a training conference today. Part of it was about how the rule of law needs to be followed and society only works when it is. They then discussed how important it was to upkeep that using America as an example of a government no longer following rule of law. This wasn’t internet memes. This was senior legal minds discussing how American democracy is failing.

Sorry, I
Should have specified. These tariffs are designed to reduce supply. Tariffs of 125% are designed to get foreign sellers to abandon the market. That is what has happened reducing supply.

They are also triggering boycotts overseas, reducing demand.

You’re thinking it’s a zero sim game in terms of production and pricing, when elastic. When prices rise, outside of their control, producers seek other markets or produce different products.

The purpose of tariffs is to reduce supply, and allow local producers to increase costs without facing competition. So, supply will be affected, no matter what.

Add money with reduced supply and you get inflation. Already countries are looking to increase trade with each other in lieu of trade with the USA. China on particular has been talking to all the Asian producers to reassure and warn against demaking with the USA. They are now the trustworthy partner.

The recession is going to come from a loss of commodities. From a loss of trade, including the components essential for domestic production. Those prices are going to rise. Jobs will be lost. All the while, all exporters to the USA will increase their prices in response to USD fall on value so that their margins in their currency remain the same.

Sure, the falling dollar, in normal circumstances would make American products more attractive, but all other countries are now imposing tariffs on the USA in response. Some, like the EU, have not done it across the board, but they will ramp up. China and USA have effectively planned to cease trade. America doesn’t have the high tech supply chain they need to compete with Chinese products internationally.

As the recession will lead to job losses, wages will have downward pressure, not up, like in every other recession.

The fact that you remain unwilling to listen and have made up your mind to remain I’ll informed os a poor decision.

Firstly, the value of the dollar decreasing will increase the cost, in dollars, of all imports. The tariffs on top will add to this inflation.

Printing money doesn’t automatically lead to inflation but in a recession environment where less is being produced, it certainly does. The quantitative easing and money printing workdwide, due covid, led to the crazy inflation we saw. Certainly supply was a problem, but a reduction in trade between 2 giant economies is also going to cause those kinds of bottlenecks.

Add loss of faith in the dollar and this multiplies. Trump is destroying the dollars purchasing power which leads to inflation. All the while he’s killing jobs in public sector and private sector at the same time.

Yep, the switch was a great idea to bridge console and handheld. Once the technology is out and the steam deck is open, without subscription, without lock down, allowing all past purchases, etc. ; the console is dead.

Yes, all sex he has is transactional. He’s not seducing anyone.

They can certainly issue new dollars to pay them, but if they flood the market with new dollars, the value of the dollar drops, and inflation rises and market loses even more confidence in the value of the dollar.

The value of having a stable economy with stable dollar was ability to issue bonds on that amount. Nobody wants to get Russian ruble bonds atm. That isn’t quite the case for the USA, but the market of buyers has shrunk.
