you know how in every country the poor and alot of the middle class always talk about how the rich are stealing & taking all the wealth while the poor & the middle class are left to suffer? he is probably pandering to that crowd by appearing as if he is trying to take the money from the rich billionaires & giving it to the poor customers. comrade Trump is finaly coming out as the communist that he is.

The Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland collapsed after a container ship collided with it this midnight.

Basically a repeat of the Guangzhou ship collision-led bridge collapse earlier last month, but on a much larger scale.

Unknown number of cars were seen on the bridge right before the collapse - Multiple casulties are to be expected.

Trump should ask his good friend XJP for a favor so they can rebuild the Francis Scott Key bridge.

China slaps anti-dumping duties on plastics from the U.S., EU, Japan, and Taiwan​

China on Sunday announced anti-dumping duties as high as 74.9% on imports of POM copolymers, a type of engineering plastic, from the United States, the European Union, Japan and Taiwan.

The commerce ministry’s findings conclude a probe launched in May 2024, shortly after the U.S. sharply increased tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, computer chips and other imports.

POM copolymers can partially replace metals such as copper and zinc and have various applications including in auto parts, electronics and medical equipment, the ministry has said.

In January, the ministry said initial investigations had determined that dumping was taking place, and implemented preliminary anti-dumping measures in the form of a deposit starting from January 24.

According to Sunday’s announcement, the highest anti-dumping rates of 74.9% were levied on imports from the United States, while European shipments will face 34.5% duties.

China slapped 35.5% duties on Japanese imports, except for Asahi Kasei Corp, which received a company-specific rate of 24.5%.

General duties of 32.6% were placed on imports from Taiwan, while Formosa Plastics received a 4% tariff and Polyplastics Taiwan 3.8%.

Hopes have risen that the U.S.-China trade war is easing after the two sides said on Monday they had agreed to slash reciprocal tariffs in a 90-day truce, a deal that state mouthpiece the Global Times said on Friday should be extended.

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation group of nations warned of “fundamental challenges” facing the global trading system in a communique on Friday after a meeting in South Korea.

I don't think India actually likes building. Thats why most of their weapons are imported from other countries instead of making their own stuff. Hearing them boast about gaining manufacturing sounds very uncharacteristic because not too long ago they were boasting about doing white collar work while China and Vietnam slave away in factories.

When India talks about how it loves Engineering, it really loves computer science only. Don't need to get out there and do dirty work like civil or mech engineers. We got huge ass libraries and places like stack overflow to minimize the work done.

When you are ruled by a priestly Brahmin class that believes the physical world is an illusion and manual labor is beneath them, you get Hindutva India. They're people who care more about the next life than this one and that their moral superior is already baked in from by their past lives. We typically don't see the lower castes (outside of Africa and the Gulf States) as they lack the money and connections to migrate abroad to the West which is why the Indian-Americans are at good corporate politics and speaking sophisms.
