by I thought this episode of the Keiser report was quite interesting. In the first half Max Kaiser says how CNN have named the makers of the bombs that recently fell on Yemon, most of which were American companies. He then goes on to talk about America's drug addiction problems and accidental overdose epidemic which he puts down to the misery that many Americans now live in, rather like in Yeltsin's Russia where people were drinking themselves to death. Americans are becoming zombified, says Max.But the second half may interest you more, where Max interviews Dan Collins of the China Money Report who has just come back from China to set up businesses again in the US citing Trump's 21% corporation tax as the reason. He says that manufacturing will now pour back into the US creating good jobs

But the second half may interest you more, where Max interviews Dan Collins of the China Money Report who has just come back from China to set up businesses again in the US citing Trump's 21% corporation tax as the reason. He says that manufacturing will now pour back into the US creating good jobs for Americans. Manufacturing is now all about robotics with self learning machines, says Dan Collins, and every leading country will need this important industry.
Dan Collins also talks about how China gamed the system by saying that they were still a third world country so they needed a 25% tax tariff on American made products while the US could only put a 2% tariff on Chinese made products. But China is now world leading economy, says Dan Collins, and Trump is levelling the playing field.
Max mentions China's social credit system where people can get a bad social credit rating and then not be allowed to use airports, or go on buses, etc, which sounds very Orwellian until you realise that in America they just lock everyone they don't like up instead and turn into slaves, so maybe China's system is more humane. It's funny how we tend to see the 'other side' as more sinister than ourselves.
Dan Collins does mention, though, how the US it's fast learning from China how to police the internet.
In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max and Stacy discuss the mass, collective overdosing by residents of New Haven, Connecticut, and the collapse of institutions that created the environment for it. In the second half, Max interviews Dan Collins of TheChinaMoneyReport.com about why, after twenty years in China, he has moved back to America. They discuss the ongoing trade war, which he says Trump is winning, and about the chances for a hot war erupting out of the China containment policy.
