Burdened with hidden debt, Chinese cities embrace a 'fines economy' to stay afloat China's zero-COVID policy ended pretty suddenly last December but while it was in place cities around the country were forced to spend trillions on Xi Jinping's strict testing regime and constant lockdowns. Much of this was so-called hidden debt which these cities are still dealing with in the form of huge debt service payments. In response they have been forced to cut pay and services and make other adjustments.

Elegant to read. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ American Pandemic 'Samizdat' [...] Though it is hard to hear, the sad fact is that we are living in a time and in a society where there is once again a need for scientists to pass around their ideas secretly to one another so as to avoid censorship, smearing, and defamation by government authorities in the name of science. I say this from first-hand experience. During the pandemic, the U.S. government violated my free speech rights and those of my scientist colleagues for questioning the federal government's COVID policies.

Ignorant, pathetic Merrick Garland wilts on the hot seat before Congress [...] The nation's chief law enforcement officer has no special insight into the malfeasance unfolding under his nose. He is just an oblivious bystander, unperturbed by the tyrannical turn the DOJ has taken under his leadership, persecuting his boss's political enemies and coddling the crooked president's crooked relatives.

Interesting -- comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ New study: Suppressing negative thoughts might be good for you You've probably heard the idea at some point in your life that suppressing negative thoughts or emotions is bad for you. If you suppress them they'll just erupt in some unexpected way. Therefore it's better, so we've been told, to spend time in therapy talking through those negative thoughts at length. That's the path to healing. But a newly released study by researchers at Cambridge University suggests those ideas may be fundamentally wrong.

If this weren't so true, it'd be hilarious. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ America Is Becoming a Joke The United States just lost an F-35 as part of its campaign to reduce itself from the greatest superpower in human history to a pitiful punchline. Ah, the magic of leftism – only it can make a great country like America ridiculous. From an inability to find its fighters to an unwillingness to defend its borders or prosecute criminals – with the exception of conservatives framed for the crime of conservativing – our country has become the Three Stooges without the dignity.
