how many nuclear reactors are left in Germany?
Will they figure out a way out of this choke point?
The entire EU relies on Norway for natural gas and crude oil
Norway should join EU so they can stop exporting gas and oil to Eurocrats
let them freeze to death
Hey the US sends plenty of LNG to Germany and others as well hahaha
I am curious to see if any of the nuclear plants in Germany try to do what the US is doing and restart em. When you do that you essentially replace all the guts anyways so a ton of the power plant is brand new.
USA cannot build new nuclear plants at a cost competitive rate so they are patching up old dangerous and outdated ones.
Tragic empire in decline and on its last days before implosion.
I think it's in Norway's benefit to only have the economic agreements. I lived through the transition from Economic Union to Political Union in the EU, and honestly, it hasn't gotten better for the net payers. Brexit mess shows that you don't want to go in and then leave again - that's a self-own.
Probably the best case scenario is a sort of begrudging ongoing trade like we seem to have now
I think that the ultimate problem that we don't have a solution for (not even under Bitcoin standard) is the use of public funds for subsidizing industries (doesn't have to be brrr, can also be with proceeds of taxation.)
Do you have an idea about how much of your tax money goes to subsidies? Which companies it subsidizes? If I learned anything from the Elmo thing and the shit they published: the swamp is real.
Thanks for taking the time to write this up. I remember all the talk about Spruce Pine, but as with so many things, as soon as everybody else stopped talking about it, I stopped thinking about it.
It seems to me that people always figure out ways around choke points if they need to. Wasn't Germany refining gasoline from coal during WWII? Probably the best case scenario is a sort of begrudging ongoing trade like we seem to have now, where nations talk a big game, but it's more trouble than it's worth to bring everything in house.
