The EU currently has about 450 Typhoons, 230 Rafales, and 140 Gripens. It also has about 160 F-35s; let's assume that the orange clown will not shut them down remotely. They also have some older Tornadoes, Mirages, and F-16 and F/

Interestingly, both of your points could be addressed by adopting a company-wide policy: if a meeting has no agenda attached, it is optional to join. Or, in short, "no agenda - no attenda."

I am and was in touch with several multimillionaires and billionaires, and in no way are they "regular people". One common trait is a gross intolerance for failing to execute their plans. I am not saying that it is necessary bad,
