so as we approach or watch the slow unwind of the debt berg (it will not be unwound, beyond too massive), so rephrase, as we watch desperate politicians try to preserve power and perks (after all that's a short term thang.. aka, power and perks in their life times and all is good for them, aka a short term play it well gambit vs structure long term for everyone else)), we have now come to raiding the most successful corporations to raise the funds for such... perks for me, pay offs for votes, and maybe some minor maintenance of the infrastructure, and of course.... massive offense to protect "us" all the way through.. until we die, and fake it enough to get an honor guard and such at our funerals. it's kind of the ultimate tax (aka desperate need) when u tax exports LOL. WTF? But that's what it is. Fund raising by fiat while at the same time, demanding more Fiat in the currency. Wow. I thought 1789 in France, had I been there, would have been so an obvious road to financial hell, and yet, Fiat Inflation in USA 2025, takes that cake to a whole new level. WTF. Europe is keeping its lips closed on these topics, and China is laughing out loud, and PUTIN? doesn't give a shit. Russians love to die by Tsars or Oligarchs and they've been doing it for centuries. nothing new. such a strange join the suicide squad society 1 minute after birth. There would have been no Kafka let alone so many other literary greats from that land, were this NOT true. Got re read of the Gulag Archipelego? sadly the writer was personally a total asshole. theguardian.com

An obvious invention. The crazed Yanks and Australians are stuck in last century planning to build a dozen monster submarines full of people costing giga$billions. I've thought for years that little autonomous torpedoes that can receive instructions now and then and roam the oceans by themselves would be ridiculously cheap, horribly hard to keep an eye on, impossible to stop, and hideously lethal. One megaton would make an aircraft carrier fleet lost at sea. A tsunami near a coast would destroy a city without needing a rocket to be launched. A giant submarine could be easily found, tracked and destroyed. A remora sucker could latch on and get a free ride. Mqurice
