With fewer borders, Chinese Bio-4 labs might have have had better oversight. Global externalities need to be addressed by global agreements. Pandemics and climate change are two such externalities.

There are essentially two types of economic regulation. Blacklist regulation and whitelist regulation. Whitelist regulation works like an elevator, or more accurately, an airplane. You can reason over it, and speculate over the effects of a

I have a simpler argument. The necessity of being fed, clothed, and housed, comes with a monthly price tag. The price of an annuity which pays for these things is the amount of debt that you are born with. That debt is completely undischarg

Any artificial restrictions on trade that we impose domestically, like minimum wage, or occupational health and safety requirements, are meaningless if we have no way of placing those restrictions elsewhere. I would argue exactly the opposi

It is an unfair requirement that goods produced in your state be made with fairly compensated labor, if there is no similar requirement on goods consumed in your state.

I don't know about no tariffs beig the fairest model. One reasonable thing to impose tariffs on is products made with slave labor, or labor paid at less than the minimum wage in your own country. The benefits are twofold, disincentiv

I imagine it is a question of applicable law. If the EU is not in a position to regulate the people in charge of those domains, I can understand why they would not want to give the impression that they are "EU" domains.
