And not to forget Trump WANTS the Nobel Peace Prize. It's crazy

Trump wants the Nobel Peace Prize—and a hostile takeover of Greenland. Could someone tell him that’s not going to work? www.dw.com/en/greenland...

Germany didn't drop nuclear because of economic issues. France is heavily indebted and spends large sums subsidizing its nuclear industry - and that is not economically sustainable.

You are comparing apples and bananas. U.S. power grid is owned by public and private and public/private and it is regulated by the government regardless of whether it is owned by private investors or governmental bodies.

Experience and data document that private companies deliver cheaper and better products and services than their government-owned peers.

Without liberalization prices would have increased much more..... Liberalization did't rise gasprices, did it? It didn't spark inflation, did it? It didn't initiate war in Ukraine, did it? French electricity marked is heavily regulated and subsidized, itsn't it?

Perhaps they should drop the expensive and loss-making nuclear power plants and liberalize the electricity market?

Der tales og skrives meget om differentieret moms og laver moms på fødevarer for tiden. Kartoflernes transformation til pommes frites illustrerer meget godt, hvorfor det ikke er så enkelt og giver anledning til at masse diskussion, bøvl, bureaukrati og ligefrem lobbyisme.

Der er heldigvis (ikke meget) priskontrol i Danmark. Så selvfølgelig kan politikere ikke love, hvad varene på et frit marked vil koste. (og bl.a. derfor skal vi heller ikke have differentieret moms, der er jo ingen garanti for den kommer forbrugerne til gode)

Meget sympatisk. Men ensartede CO2-afgifter, der reflekterer den samfundsøkonomiske omkostning er den hurtigste, nemmeste og billigste vej i klimamål.
Michael Frank (@frankdoit.bsky.social) reply parent
EU's landbrugsstøtte kapitaliseres i jordprisen og driver omkostningerne op. Der er told og importrestriktioner på fødevarer fra tredjelande, hvilket reducerer konkurrencen og driver priserne op. Så hvis vi dropper landbrugsstøtten, tolden og importrestriktionerne vil fødevarepriserne i EU falde.

Differentieret moms åbner en ladeport for højere moms, misundelsesmoms, lobbyisme, undtagelser og administration. Mens reduceret moms tilsyneladende ikke fik vores svenske broderfolk til, hverken at købe flere bøger eller læse mere.

A-kraft har reelt ikke udviklet sig i 70 år, det kræver gigantiske subsidier og statsgarantier. Konventionelle værker koster mere og mere. Mens man, uden succes, har forsøgt at få "de nye værker" i drift siden 1952. Ingen udvikling og alt for dyrt....

I believe it is best for Ukraine and the rules-based world order that the USA withdraws from these pseudo-peace negotiations. Next, the Coalition of the Willing should take the lead and provide Ukraine with all the support necessary to soundly defeat the Russians on the battlefield.

Everyone expects the USA to leave NATO and it is believed Trump and Putin have made a trade involving Greenland and Ukraine. USA is turning its back on the EU. We must expect a future NATO without the USA, and the USA will appease Russia and use force against NATO countries.

Det er ikke oprustningen i sig selv, der initierer den tyske rentestigning. Det er lånefinansieringen. Den øgede efterspørgsel efter penge og den øgede gældsratio. Havde de valgt at finansieringe via reformer ville det ikke have presset renten op.

Ukraine skal vinde. Pengetræer findes ikke, derfor er det meget risikabelt, når EU starter med at tillade overskridelser af budget- og lånerammer. "Tisse-i-bukserne-princippet" Det gør os ekstremt sårbare, hvis der er behov for yderligere oprustning... eller opstår en anden krise (Covid som eks.)

Hvad er så planen med de ca. 93 mia ubrugte lånemidler i EU's genopretningslån?
Michael Frank (@frankdoit.bsky.social) reply parent
Det bliver spændende at se den dom. Det er nationalstaternes opgave at skafffe luft i budgettet til at finansiere forsvaret. Modsat fælles gæld er fælles indkøb er fornuftigt. "Lange ordre" og store volumer giver våbenproducenterne incitamenter til, at produktudvikle og udvide kapaciteten.
Michael Frank (@frankdoit.bsky.social) reply parent
Men det er jo de landes egen skyld. De må skaffe det nødvendige luft i budgettet til, at forsvare deres respektive befolkninger. Det burde EU kræve fremfor at gøre det lovligt at tisse i bukserne....... underforstået overskride rammerne for budget og statslån.

To gode spørgsmål. Jeg har et trejde....... hvorfor i alverden låne? Våbenene skal bruges i EUs nationalstater, ikke i EU som institution. Det er fint og fornuftigt at EU-landene koordinerer indkøbene så der kan afgives "lange" ordre af en størrelse der retfærdiggør at producenterne investerer.
