Everybody wins, really.
I will say it has been interesting watching the whole "if we help china be rich they'll turn into a democracy thing" crash and burn
cause i was fed that in my business, econ, and polisci classes
from right and leff
they fucked up on that bet
fucking retarded idea

yeah lets just dump all this money on a dictatorial and authoritarian regime that has a history of genocide and oppression of its own people, there is no possible way this can end badly

I get it from an academic stand point, but politicians knew better and were just cashing in
or at least knew it was very unlikely
Academics cant be allowed to actually run policy. just churn out new theories and let actual doers run it. Academics dont understand reality

I wasnt arguing

Having a billionaire as president was one of the best decisions modern america has ever made tbh
Undergrad was Business, Econ, Pols

Depends on what college you go to, some smaller colleges are called 'practical' colleges where your subject matter is geared toward real world professional development, and not theoretical learning or expanding this mode of thought or another. Both are very valuable, but the theoretical dominates academia.
that argument
can you imagine what he would do to those norks
just nuke denmark and take greenland
now we're talking
why the fuck do we want greenland
Thule is ours by right.
