Possession is 9 tenths of the law. What right do you have to all the metal, diamonds, gold, oil etc that you're using right now if it can be safely returned?

Upon reflection, you are right about the cause/effect wrt sanctions. While I don't see how sanctions can be part of a solution, I do now understand that they aren't the cause of instability either, as corrupt actors, or even

You can't build stable countries in those places as long as narcotraffickers and commodity smugglers exist, and they will exist as long as we have repressive laws on drug use (in the United States and other Rich Nations) and sanctions

Not sure why you're being downvoted. It's completely true, everyone wants a reality that caters to them. The harsh reality of online business is that most consumers won't give a product the time of day before trying it for fr

Au contraire, it's simple math. If I invest 1 dollar in 2010, and get back 50 cents in 2020, I have in fact lost 50% of my money over that time period. It's the same as any other asset class.For example, If you're a portfolio
