I agree that Taiwan should pay for the defence, but what he means at the back is that US will continue to sell weapons to Taiwan.
Bullet fired at Trump, but Biden got hurt !
If Taiwan must pay, might as well buy weapons from other nations. Like Russia.

Presidential candidate Mr Trump is not even the President yet, to make policy changes that had been set in stone without a legislative battle in Congress, although to many, it may seem he is a clear winner, but in reality, there is still much work to done if he is to live in the White House again.

Meanwhile, being the clear winner in this present time, he is made use of by many for SPECULATIVE purposes, as both manipulator & the manipulated would always want to bet on the 'presumed' winning horse. Which haymaker, even a village idiot, would want to lose while the sun still shines?

Ultimately, the Stock Market Worldwide, ESPECIALLY CRYPTOS that is BACKED by NOTHING, is built up thru SPECULATION. How else would those companies be able to obtain far more interest$ & ROI than sedate banks or treasury bonds?


It only needs a spark from someone who is of high market profile, a few in the media to add in the spices, & hey presto - the markets are manipulated thru herd mentality, to beef up the stocks levels by fools, or sold off by fools BUT with those with bigger pockets to buy it back at low.....

The rise of Humankind Civilization was based upon agrarian societies. It was a time to sow & a time to harvest. Such genetic or memory banks still lives within Humankind.

Thus such historical culture is still evident within the minds of enterprising Humanity in financial markets. Often, thru years of records, OCTOBER is the month of HARVESTING within the stock markets, as it is the time for Finance officers to close or balanced up accounts for the financial year, with dividends & bonuses to be ready to be paid out by 1st Dec.

The point of this post is - may the ordinary worker/civilian/Human whom have life savings set aside, keep calm & not be manipulated into herd mentality. Investments are fine, especially in proven well managed blue chip companies for long term yields, but ONLY invests/gamble with money that ONE CAN AFFORD TO LOSE... which is not one's life savings.
