"we learnt that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to a tyrannical government with expansionist intent" Who is closer to Reagan: Trump or Harris?

Quotes from Reagan's speech at Normandy on the 40th anniversary of D-Day ( 6th June 1984) are still relevant for US election: "It is better to be here ready to protect then peace then to take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond after freedom is lost."

This is the best critique i found regarding the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank. Events like this show that even a small bank can cause systemic risks and the Europe did well in not following US in diluting tight bank regulation Frank Dodd type. project-syndicate.org/commentary/pre…

“ Mother Nature and market forces are bigger than us and as in the past they will step in to save us from ourselves by forcing upon us painful but temporary corrective measures along the way.” Is Covid19 nature’s call to mend our ways be4 too late? Think positive.

Govt measures to defer tax is great help 4 business cash flow to tide them over the CV crisis. Some govt support to cushion payroll cost of mandatory quarantined employees also in order. But business expectations to privatise profits & socialise losses is unjust to taxpayers.

Moody's upgrades Malta's rating to A2 timesofmalta.com/articles/view/… An overdue acknowledgement of MALTA s economic success. Perhaps usual moaners can stay silent.

Well done Miriam. Metsola counter argument that in supporting Timmermans we are supporting tax harmonization is baseless. Timmermans and PSOE know we defend Malta's interest irrespectively. Malta 1st&foremost. Tax harmonization decision not taken by Commission but by Council.

Surplus now strategic even though government expenditure grew +400m. The economy has strong dynamics, roaring ahead & increasing revenue to return a surplus. Debt would have fallen more if not putting away funds for future generations. IIP is tangential to this success story.
