Edit: Sorry I'm a :LIB: and I don't have a link to the tweet, I stole this from :reddit-logo:
Edit2: I am no longer a :LIB:, I found the tweet !
If the ban ever becomes more than somebody suggesting something in an office break room after reading a health report talking about kids getting disabled
Would be very funny if the building codes beaurocrat gets mysterious orders from the CIA and has to frantically come up with justifications
The conspiracy is that they want to sell the gas that would otherwise have been used in the sacred gas stoves that people desperately need to make an authentic wok or whatever abroad for more profit.
Given that use for home cooking accounts for less than a single percent of use for natural gas and newbuilds are more likely to use electric (as it is far easier to build) this is a pretty farfetched theory.
In conclusion: :pepe-silvia:
Hundreds of millions is peanuts.
Europe makes $60 billion every single year on trade with the US. They can easily afford to purchase some of our gas. Everyone goes on about how we're ripping them off, but it's a lie. Trade is supposed to be equal and benefit both parties. It just goes to show you how pampered and privileged Europeans are that they simply expect this $60 billion as a birthright and when anything decreases it even a little, they throw a temper tantrum.
Hundreds of millions is what the link said.
$26.7 billion is still less than $60 billion. That's a difference of $33.3 billion. We could cure homelessness with that money. But instead, it goes to a bunch of overprivileged European snotnoses who despise us. Fuck them.
They've still got tens of billions to go before we're equal and trade is fair to both sides. Then, we can talk about running a trade surplus and maybe make some money for ourselves. You know, like Europe has done for decades.
The energy cost increase is so huge, it cannot be compensated with the lower wages, therefore the industry is moving to China and the US and a lot of people will lose their jobs instead.
Hundreds of millions “per ship”, is what is missing from that tweet. BTW you realize the privileged US standard of living is basically paid by the rest of the world? That’s what’s not “fair” and what multipolar world will put an end to.
the lack of class consciousness in this post is staggering. shut the fuck up liberal
Death to America
Trade is supposed to be equal and benefit both parties.
Are you a neoclassical econ 101 handbook?
20 bucks all of Port of Rotterdam’s promises for Hydrogen support end up going towards LNG….almost like this hydrogen project was just a holdover for Shell Oil to improve its public standing.
I predict that at some point of 2023 hexbear will invent a third "toxic fumes are proletarian" discourse.
