So the xenophobes in the UK made sure that the UK gets more non-European immigrants? Congratulations UK, you are an extra level of special. (LOL)

@samthesuspect Most of Russian armor has interchangeable parts, I didn't know this until today but apparently the Russians are following an old Soviet model, when it comes to tank tech. As in a new system in the T-14s can be changed out with something from a T-90 or a T-72. Now, absolutely the catalytic converter or the guidance system won't be what it could be. But that doesn't ultimately change the fact that the tank will roll and fire. It will simply be a 1990 effective until they can produce their own guidance system that will put them in the 2012 rather than 2022 but the tanks will work and will fire.

3:30 Not sure how you improve someone's standard of living by forcing them to live in an Apartheid human cattle pen, surrounded by concertina/barbed wires and prison/concentration camp towers, while armed Israeli soldiers making sure the cattle are kept in check. The Israeli people are lead to believe through their own propaganda, that the Palestinians are no more than animals, to be slaughtered in a pen. And I'm talking about the 'peaceful' West Bank, where Israelis have Ethnically cleansed 50% of the West Bank of all Palestinian inhabitants, all for the final solution of "Lebensraum" for Israeli settlers. If the solution of improving standards of living was not meant as a joke by VP, then giving every Palestinian farmer 1/3rd of the water allotment per square hectare in comparison to his Israeli counterpart sounds like a very genocidal solution. Perhaps VE should research the news feeds, that everyone else has been reading for the last 10 years, a bit more closely.

@brinjoness3386 You just repeated what I wrote, so thanks for agreeing with my point. Or did you just fail to read everything I wrote?

10:07 "If for example central banks lower interest rates by printing money then inflation goes up" - This was the stupidest sentence I've ever had to hear, I literally had to rewind this 4 times and then write it down, while having a brain aneurism. Central banks don't lower interest rates by printing money, printing money has nothing to do with lowering interest rates.

5:28 After hearing that, I am not wondering about any of your questions. What I'm wondering about, is how the United States invested Euros in the 1950s before the existence of Euros.

The Bubonic Plague came from China and wiped out populations from Beijing, to Baghdad, all the way to Venice and London, it didn't discriminate, so mentioning it seems like red herring. How about just 'the resource curse' ever hear of it? Yeah, Spain suffered from it for about 300 years from 1492 till about 1824 and the Independence of Mexico. While Northern Europe industrialized and made things for others to buy, and grew prosperous because of it. The Spaniards and the Portuguese, dug/harvested gold, silver, rubber, tobacco etc.. the world over. Problem is, their colonies went independent, as colonies are known to do, the silver and gold dried up, and Spain and Portugal wound up being 300 years, 'behind the eight-ball.' Italy built its wealth on extracting gold from Spain and Portugal, while Northern Europe innovated. Spain decoupled from the resource curse about a century or two ahead of Sub-Saharan Africa, which is why they are ahead but not to the same degree as their Northern cousins.

Germany has a lot of tariffs on U.S. products, as such, there should be no surprise that tariffs on German products would be implemented. "What's good for the goose, is good for the gander" and Germany has been pecking off the U.S. for quite a while.
