I think of Milei’s remarkable endeavor as more of an economic experiment than a political one. What the US did in breaking from England was more of a political experiment in democracy. Would like your and anyone else’s opinions.

Great point! Reckon it’s tough to separate one from the other, but certainly something to consider…for a future Note!

Joel what of the recent news that Milei is cozying up to the US war machine rather than the Chinese. Seems to me he would distance his country from both. Nothing good comes of talking with Blinken and his ilk. Safe travels Joel

Yes, this posturing makes me uncomfortable. I understand there’s horse trading to be done, but the military industrial complex makes us unreconstructed peaceniks nervous. Grist for a future Note. Cheers!

China learned from the Islamic expansion movement created by Iran in the 80s, sending Islamic extremism to every major city in the world, setting them up with homes and businesses and sending more over to work as those businesses expanded. China is doing the same, but on a 1000x higher scale. Will be interesting to see how this plays out 🤔
