The Japanese hit a similar wall with fixed supply chains. With all technology there is a limit on productivity. After the use of cheap labor come: logistics, capital efficiency, resource costs, management efficiency, distribution and energy costs among others.
1/
The US has many advantages, penetration of MIS technology, cheapest energy supply outside lesser developed oil producers, better logistics, extremely efficient capital allocation, less corruption(which acts as a barrier and tax). In the end, freer markets are more efficient.
2/
The Chinese SOE system relies heavily on subsidized debt. The Chinese due to different accounting rules and promises similar to sovereign guarantees have convinced the Western capital markets to invest very low cost capital in China.
3/
Capital is also directly subsidized by extraordinarily high effective tax rates in China. Effective sovereign guarantees through the State Asset Committee will keep this working along as they do not run out of cash. Their SOEs and government are carried as overhead.

@BuckSexton @gummibear737 @Covid19Crusher @EthicalSkeptic The facts:
1) Dr. Fauci and NIH/CDC have actively interfered with the evaluation and advocacy of off label use of safe existing drugs. The reasons are multi fold including a bad EUA framework during a true emergency.
1/
@BuckSexton @gummibear737 @Covid19Crusher @EthicalSkeptic 2) Early disease parameters were poorly understood and RCTs during this time were often off-mark or suffered from poor design. But a mythology has arisen due to hyped studies that were later discredited. And the perceptual damage had not been corrected.
2/
@BuckSexton @gummibear737 @Covid19Crusher @EthicalSkeptic 3) The nature of politics in academic medicine overlaid with governmental politics; all amplified by social media have affected doctors, virologists, epidemiologists, infectious disease specialists. We are rapidly substituting politics for science. Anger replacing judgment.

@threadreaderapp @cain_nate @realDonaldTrump Our election laws are a carefully woven tapestry negotiated over decades by the parties. The conduct of the elections according to these laws are a contract between the parties and with the people to insure fair, free and honest elections.
1/
@threadreaderapp @cain_nate @realDonaldTrump Our rights under the constitution are embedded in these laws. The officials, press, judges, law enforcement and politicians that are obstructing the reasonable investigation of thousands of observed irregularities are actively working to deny an open and fair election.
2/
@threadreaderapp @cain_nate @realDonaldTrump Procedural excuses deny hearings, courts refuse to follow the law, law enforcement ignores witnessed crimes and bureaucrats just want it to go away. The law is the law, those denying it are culpable, many are legally responsible for investigating and enforcing the law.

“The Pause”
There seems to be only one viable solution, to avoid widespread unrest and disaffection concerning the election, at this stage.
1/
1) VP Pence should refuse to read any electors on January 6. He decides he will read elector slates after comprehensive audits are completed in contested areas including a thorough transparent bi-partisan examination and count of ballots, security envelopes, and voter rolls.
2/
2) This must be allowed and completed by January 19, if not he will refuse to read the electors from those states blocking audits. Only electors from contested states that can prove by audit that the votes counted are legal and accurate will be read.

@cain_nate My friend Nate Cain and I have worked hundreds of hours with various politicians and legal groups trying to explain the election laws and how they fit together. There are many misperceptions of what happened during this election and what it means. citizensforfreeelections.org
1/
@cain_nate Simply put, our election laws are an intricate tapestry designed to ensure accuracy and prevent fraud. They work together like parts of a car. But when certain parts fail, the car is just a hunk of scrap iron and plastic. In this case critical parts failed.
2/
@cain_nate You do not have to prove fraud or intent, you just have to show that the election officials were unable to conduct an election that met the law and relevant certification requirements. In this case, the election does not come close to meeting accuracy requirements.

@man_integrated @samanthamarika1 @MikayesFiona @BuckSexton @cain_nate @KyleOlbert This is the problem:
1) There are real and serious problems with this election.
2) We have a near total breakdown of legal processes designed as a relief valve when these things happen.
1/
@man_integrated @samanthamarika1 @MikayesFiona @BuckSexton @cain_nate @KyleOlbert 3) The pro-Biden/anti-Trump coalition is playing run down the clock. This risks untold violence.
4) Constitutional remedies clearly did not anticipate this issue, there is no time to adequately investigate and determine the full extent of the compromise of our election.
2/
@man_integrated @samanthamarika1 @MikayesFiona @BuckSexton @cain_nate @KyleOlbert 5) A solution requires people, the majority on the left and right, that believe in fair, honest and transparent elections to come together to drive a compromise.
6) There is time for something I call the “The Pause”.
7) Stop everything for one month.

@PhillDKline Phill Kline and his legion at the Amistad project of the Thomas More Society are American heroes. They worked tirelessly for months to expose the truth of this massive fraud. There is still a chance to make this right. They have shown America the proof.
1/
@PhillDKline Citizens of the United States of America wake up today with the law being ignored, denied and broken by law enforcement, election officials, judges, politicians and our new oligarchs. Is this the America we believe in? Are we really going to let them take this away from us?
2/
@PhillDKline Our system is deeply broken, and foolishly distorted. We used to believe in truth but now dishonor, greed and power have bent our system beyond recognition. There is not an easy solution, but SCOTUS is about to let the country drive off a cliff.
