Foreign AffairsRe: China, Russia And Pakistan Now Trade Without US Dollar by drakeli:
mysticwarrior:
my brother this pandemic has really exposed the US unpreparedness and vulnerability in terms of protecting their citizens against biological warfare. We saw how the Chinese were able to subdue the spread of the virus in their country, believe me after this pandemic is over the US would be facing a declination of their economic and China would be getting stronger, judging from the look of things it seems the Chinese are unstoppable.
Stop peddling beer parlor talk. I trade forex. Even in the face of the pandemic in the US, dollar continues to be king in forex market and it’s rate continues to get strengthen against every other major currency in international market everyday. What does that tell us? It means the US economy is the greatest economy in the world right now. So it reflects in their currency.

Dollar strength is the function of the economy it’s subject to and not it’s use by any country.

Other countries using dollars as a means of international transaction started after world war 2 when countries were looking for stable currency for trades between countries. And dollar has proved to be the most stable currency ever since then. They didn’t do that to help American economy because their action didn’t help America in any way rather their own economy devastated by the war:

So at what age should he/she go back home? The ideal time for one to travel out is between 18-25yrs. Round off their journey in the next 15-20 yrs, by then he/she is like 40-45 yrs old with spouse and children. The children should be raised in Nigeria and allowed to finish their secondary school, so they could learn the culture. The man/woman should then finally settle back in Nigeria by then (40-45yrs) and just go abroad for visiting. This prolonged abroad thing has a very adverse ending for old people.

As for racism and America. We black people have made significant level of progress to the extent of becoming a US president.

But as for China and racism. China will take us black people back 200 years into racism. We have gone too far from where we started from in fighting racism. We have achieved significant level of victory . We can’t afford to start over again with China as if we are still in 1870.


That’s where romancing with China will take us as a people.

Can u give evidence or proof for what u are saying,tell me the country in which china has taken over as a result of loan
China took over Sri Lanka’s port and 55,000 acres of land around the port in 2018 for the next 99 year to pay back loan owed to China. Research it if I’m lying.

The port of Mombasa Kenya is currently in the verge of being taking over by China maybe for the next 99 years too due to Kenya struggling to pay back her debt to China.

What about Zambia? Zambia is under debt burden from China. It’s risking China taking over its national electricity company (their own NEPA) due to being caught by China’s loan trap. I pray they don’t lose their national assets like Sri Lanka.

Uganda too is worried right now about China seizing its national asset for 99 years to pay what they own China.

China doesn’t care about you. It doesn’t even care about its own citizens. It’s own citizens are like properties of the communist party state. Is that the kind of world leader I want in my generation? Hell No! China just giving you it’s baits. Any developing countries that fall for it is just another puppet in the hands of China. The Bible says a borrower is a slave to the lender. I am yet to see a country that has its national assets taken away because it owes a debt to a Europe or America. Instead they are forgiven their debt. But I have seen it with China.

Research about just those few countries I mentioned about their debt to China. They better pay on time or lease their assets to China free for 99 years. I know you don’t want China to take over Apapa port to pay our debt. Nigeria may not go that route because Nigeria is still richer than those countries.

Go and research “China debt trap” how China is using loans to put developing countries under its yokes. Then indirectly controlling their economy through Chinese exports.

The Britain that joined this shithole bla bla bla.... A typical backward Blackman way of reasoning. Only blaming the past for his woes and refuse to handle the present and move forward into the future . Keep on the British blame game and your trash talk. I clap for you while the Chinese is taking folks that reason like you into future economic slavery/subjugation. Chinese have been taking over Africans key economic Institution. Taking over sea port, airport for failure of the countries to pay back the cost of Chinese infrastructure in their countries.

Chinese build this and that. On whose Bill? You think it’s free of charge right? Well... For you info. They are paying for it. Whether in terms of loans that will tie them to Chinese apron for life or in terms of leasing their national assets to China for the next generation . That’s economic slavery.

We are talking about a whole country China, but you are talking about Trump. Trump is not America. He won’t spend more than eight years in office. Blacks are already integrated into American society doing great things up to becoming a president of America.

Chinese hate you despite you leaking their ass. They are the greatest racist. Even in your own Nigeria, Chinese don’t want you in their restaurant and you are cool with that because you are mentally enslaved.

The other time Chinese government wanted to lessen rules on their immigration policy to allow people with special talents live in their country, Chinese citizens flooded the social media chanting they don’t want blacks, nigger, monkeys in their country and they don’t want white pigs in their country. That blacks will take their women.

Can you imagine dirty Chinese calling you monkey and white people, white pigs. Even Chinese are racist against white people. Who else can beat that? Other races only show bigotry. If China were world power, you would know that European racism is a child play.

America and European countries are giving aides to developing countries. But China is giving developing countries loans they can’t pay back to mortgage their countries and their children’s children and take away their institutions, sea ports, air ports as collateral
HealthRe: COVID-19: 16 New Cases Reported, Total now 254 With 44 Discharged And 6 Deaths by drakeli: 10:08pm On Apr 07, 2020
Mizwisdom:
I'm beginning to feel that this Corona virus issue is being politicized. If a man is suffering from hypertension and hepatitis, and dies from one or both causes and you claim he died from corona then you're not being truthful even if he tests positive because any one of those illnesses can kill at any time. But NCDC quickly added his case to the number of deaths. Something isn't right about this(my opinion).
Anyone with underline health condition or over sixty years is more vulnerable to being kill faster by corona virus than others . The virus kills faster people with underline health condition. Says medical experts in the US. Most victims of Coronavirus in the US are old people and people with pre existing medical conditions like diabetes, heart disease, obesity etc. So NCDC is spot on

Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Has Destroyed America.it Will Be Hard To Recover by drakeli: 10:19pm On Apr 03, 2020
MrBrownJay1:
again in the US, there are highly educated people who are unemployed etc.... now if you believe that these people are lazy OR that they should go and work at Mc Ds then you dont know what you are talking about.... when there is a job opening in NY, SF, Miami, LA, Detroit etc there are hundreds if not thousands of people applying for that ONE JOB. i personally know a few "black" people with degrees in Atlanta, New York who cant find work.
Different categories of people are unemployed for different reasons. In the US for instance, no highly educated person doesn’t have a job where he is getting his earning from. Is it only McDonald’s job there is in the US? So why do you keep talking about McDonald’s? A highly educated person may choose not to work until he is able to get a job exactly and strictly in his area of discipline. Does that mean that he cannot take up a job in other areas? Does that mean those friends of yours are just wasting away at home without a job they are managing and paying their bills with for now? Of course no. They may be underemployed and of course, they are not working at McDonald’s. So go and ask those friends of yours.

I have a close friend who is white. He is a medical doctor (highly educated right?) But his medical license was taken away from him because he breached the oaths of his job. He can’t work as a doctor anymore, but he takes up a job elsewhere, of course not McDonald’s. He may be underemployed. Of course he is employed. No highly educated person in the US doesn’t have a small job he is managing now until he lands his dream job. If he doesn’t, then he chooses to be unemployed until he gets his dream job and not because there’s no job. That’s the point I was trying to make.
Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Has Destroyed America.it Will Be Hard To Recover by drakeli:
MrBrownJay1:
A) read carefully what i wrote about the US and other western countries

B) if you actually believe that the only unemployed people in the US are people who dont want to work (junkies and lazy folks, as you stated), then its obvious you are clueless about the subject. there are millions of americans who look for work and cant find a decent job, unless you believe that getting $10/hr at Mc Ds is what everyone is aiming for in life.
Now you are coming out clearer. On the “B” part. Are those people whether they are flipping burger at McDonald’s employed or not? They are earning $10 with all the necessary benefits like health insurance and social security benefits added to it. You don’t call such people unemployed. Rather you need to say they are underemployed if they are qualified for a bigger job. In fact, there are some people that working at McDonald’s is the highest job they are qualified for since they have no qualifying education. Are you going to call them unemployed? So such people are not even qualified to get unemployment benefits from the government because they are seen as employed. Such people are not part of the unemployed in the US. Maybe if there’s a list for the underemployed, then they may be qualified
Foreign AffairsRe: Trump Has Destroyed America.it Will Be Hard To Recover by drakeli: 2:22pm On Apr 03, 2020
MrBrownJay1:
sadly, this is only half the truth.... some jobs will be hibernating, others will be lost completely, as we all know that the minute the lockdown will be over, majority of people (who were without income for so long) wont have money to start living life like before. these businesses will therefore start with only half staff as there will be no need to employ full staff for a business that will be running at very slow pace. you think tourists will be quick to rush on vacation after the lockdown?! with what money? tourism will be affected, food and drink businesses etc will be affected, airline industry will be affected (they say $250Billion loss predicted). you think farmers can keep their unsold fruits and veggies for how long before they get spoiled?

btw unless unemployment stood at ZERO, your analogy that "there were more jobs than people looking for jobs" is a damn LIE! anyone knows unemployed rate in the US back in January 2020 was around 4%. FACT!

i doubt the US (or any other western country) will recover anytime before 2021, and i am being generous!
The picture you painted is not America alone picture. That will be the situation with every country under the lockdown. Nigeria included even when Nigeria’s case is even broken beyond remedy in the first place so to speak. We don’t have credible data in Nigeria, so no one will know the effect on employment in Nigeria. Every country under lockdown will lose some jobs. Why are you making it seem like it’s only American problem. No: It’s a global problem.

Besides, that the number of jobs exceed the number of people looking for job in the US is an official fact for the past one year while unemployment rate was of course at 4%. Remember that the 4% rate includes people who are unemployed for different reasons such as people on disability, the homeless of which most of them are drug junkies or lazy folks who don’t just want to work (yes there are people like that in the US. They prefer to beg) hence cannot keep a job. These groups of people do not include people looking for job. Of course they are not.

So my submission that number of jobs exceed the number of people looking for job is an official fact. That’s why you are still clueless on those two fronts.

You are clueless. People out of their job are so because their business obey the lockdown directive. Their jobs are simply hibernating. The companies reopen their door once the lockdown is over. Even restaurant workers are part of the group. They are out of their job not because there is lack of job. Before the pandemic. There were more jobs than people looking for jobs in the US and the employers were having a hard time keeping their workers since there were enough jobs everywhere. It’s official statement.

China’s top epidemiologist who is at the forefront of the research on the Wuhan coronavirus claims he has found a way to stop the outbreak of the deadly new virus.
Li Ping Wang, leading epidemiologist at Beijing University believes the Wuhan coronavirus has developed through interspecies sexual intercourse and that this practice must be discontinued to end the outbreak.

Wang went on national television yesterday to warn the Chinese population and the rest of the world of the origin and potential cure for the life-threatening epidemic.

“We can now confirm that the Wuhan coronavirus has spread through sexual intercourse between humans and chickens in the Wuhan region and the only way to end the outbreak is abstinence,” Dr. Wang warned on national television.

Li Ping Wang claims that his research has proven that similar to the AIDS virus, which developed through sexual intercourse between humans and monkeys, the Wuhan coronavirus developed through sexual intercourse between humans and poultry.

“Black people have the AIDS virus because they sleep with monkeys and Chinese have Coronavirus because of sex with chickens, this must stop now,” he told China Central Television.
The cultural practice of sexual intercourse with chickens to ward off evil spirits, promote crop growth and cure erectile dysfunction is a widely held belief and commonly practiced in many regions of the country have acknowledged experts.

“These traditions have been upheld for millennia and it will be hard for the Chinese people to stop indulging in such activities” Chinese cultural expert, Nathan Daniels explained.

Other medical experts had previously warned that the Wuhan Jī Jian Jie (also known as the Wuhan Chicken Rape Festival) which has been held for centuries in the region to ward off evil spirits could be at the origin of the 2002-03 SARS outbreak.

Foreign AffairsChina Allegedly Underreported Number Of Coronavirus Deaths, Severity Of Outbreak by drakeli(op): 1:42am On Apr 02, 2020
China concealed the extent of its coronavirus outbreak, under-reporting total cases and deaths from the pandemic, the American intelligence community concluded in a classified report to the White House, Bloomberg reported Wednesday, citing three US officials.

They said that China’s public reporting on cases and deaths was intentionally incomplete, with two going so far as to say China’s numbers were fake.

The outbreak began in China’s Hubei province in late 2019, but the country had publicly reported only about 82,000 cases and 3,300 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University, which compiles data on worldwide infections and deaths.

That compares to more than 189,000 cases and more than 4,000 deaths in the US, which has the largest publicly reported outbreak in the world.

China eventually imposed a strict lockdown, but there has been skepticism of China’s reported numbers, both outside and within the country, the news service reported.


The medical community made — interpreted the Chinese data as: This was serious, but smaller than anyone expected,” she said at a press briefing Tuesday.

“Because I think probably we were missing a significant amount of the data, now that we see what happened to Italy and see what happened to Spain.”

Vice President Mike Pence on Wednesday blamed China for concealing information when he was pressed on CNN about President Trump’s initial reaction to the pandemic, which Trump repeatedly downplayed and said would disappear like “a miracle” before taking a grimmer view on Tuesday, when he acknowledged that 150,000 Americans or more could die from the disease.
