Are are we surprised?.... of course not; the Court of the Tangerine Tyrant is only out for itself & is seeking to maximise the financial returns of the Tyrant's remaining time in the White House.

I'll link Charlie Angus' piece from Friday. It's crooks all the way down. This might be easier to see from just over the Niagara River. πŸ€”

Factor in wealthy fossil fuels countries like the Arabs have, along with younger leadership that's more easily swayed by such grifts, leaves more nations that historically support more conservative value ranges to more destabilization.

And when and politicians who write policy for said legislation, control more and more of root infrastructure assets; further disenfranchisement goes even more viral (see: K-economies burgeoning from these new techno-crimes).

We should at the very least, have backup plans in in , that can leave such implosions to those that deserve it the most. An interesting option is 'offshoots' of China's Belt and Road Initiative, in the . Even the recent Mersosur deal points in that direction for long-term sustainability, along with BRICS.

In the UK, such betting would at the very least being scrutinised & possibly subject to prosecution (I think I'm right in saying), as has been the case in the past with sports betting

This is becoming too far of a leap for Capitalism to manage.
