  • What’s the article have to say about why the selloff is strange?

    • it reflects something more ominous as President Donald Trump tries to reshape global trade: a loss of confidence in the U.S.
    • Global trust and reliance on the dollar was built up over a half century or more … But it can be lost in the blink of an eye
    • the dollar has fallen 9% against a basket of currencies, a rare and steep decline
    • It is no longer hyperbole to say that the dollar’s reserve status and broader dominant role is at least somewhat in question
    • the ballooning U.S. federal debt, which is already at a risky 120% of U.S. annual economic output … Most countries with that debt to GDP would cause a major crisis
    • he will force interest rates lower to boost the economy even if doing so risks stoking runaway inflation. That is a sure fire way to get people to flee the dollar.
    • This is the first step down a slippery slope where international confidence in the U.S. dollar is lost

    Hm, strange indeed. It’s just happening on its own and nobody can put their finger on why. Better say it’s “strange” and not “POTUS is intentionally destroying the US’s global standing via disastrous and illegal policy”





  • I don’t think so. The bill was written by a chemist. I don’t know what fentanyl or narcan are from a chemical perspective to be able to evaluate if the law would apply to narcan. It says this:

    ‘‘(e)(1) Unless specifically exempted or unless listed in another schedule, any material, compound, mixture, or preparation which contains any quantity of a fentanyl-re- lated substance, or which contains the salts, isomers, and salts of isomers of a fentanyl-related substance whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible within the specific chemical designation.
