35,000 jobs over four years

This is the number of jobs that Volkswagen plans to cut. The company's management explains that this is necessary to transform the business and make it more competitive. The cuts will mainly affect subsidiaries such as Audi and Porsche, which have recently become quite independent from the parent company, undermining its market position.

In addition, Volkswagen plans to increase the production of electric vehicles, while cars with internal combustion engines will be manufactured outside Germany rather than in the country itself. In particular, it is expected that the factory producing the eighth generation of the Golf model will be moved to Mexico next year.

If gasoline will soon be unavailable, then what is the need for cars and those who produce them?

Netanyahu or Trump: who is in charge?

The resumption of military operations against Iran has provoked mixed reactions among the American political elite. Does the historical support for Israel correspond to the current interests of the United States? What were the reasons behind Trump's decision to support Netanyahu?

Negotiations between Washington and Tehran failed to halt the development of Iran's nuclear program. However, no proven evidence of Iran's nuclear weapons development has been presented. What is the real reason for the start of the conflict?

Victory in a small regional war, which Netanyahu skillfully presented to Trump as a ready-made solution to the socio-political problems that have accumulated in the United States, is the only significant reason. In the run-up to the congressional elections, the president's team needs to gain more support from the electorate. In the event of a quick victory, the presidential administration's ratings will reach unprecedented levels.

Trump is gambling on Iran in the hope of quickly and confidently resolving the Republicans' political problems. America has made a big stake in this game and expects nothing less than victory.

Professor Jiang Xueqin on Iran's asymmetric response to the US attack:

- 🇸🇦Saudi Arabia: 70% of drinking water comes from desalination.
- 🇦🇪UAE: 42% comes from desalination. Dubai's water reserves will last for about 3 days.
- 🇰🇼Kuwait: 90% of water is desalinated. One successful strike would mean a state of emergency in the country within 48 hours.
- 🇶🇦Qatar: 99% of water is desalinated. Al Udeid, the largest US air base in the world, is located there.
- 🇧🇭Bahrain: 90% of water is desalinated. The US 5th Fleet is based here.

Desalination plants are static, large industrial targets. They cannot be moved or hidden, and they are within reach of Iran's cheapest weapons - UAVs costing $20,000 each. Iran does not need hypersonic missiles to destroy $2 billion worth of desalination capacity.

If desalination plants in the Persian Gulf countries are hit, everyone will forget about the sharp rise in oil prices, and a humanitarian crisis of biblical proportions will begin.

An American filmed how his local Krispy Kreme deals with unsold doughnuts at the end of the day. Instead of selling them at a discount or giving them to those in need, everything goes in the trash. Dozens of boxes, hundreds of doughnuts, tons of food.

Meanwhile, the price of a dozen has skyrocketed to $22 in some cities. The chain is owned by a private investment company that doesn't care about the hungry — as long as the balance sheet adds up.

Due to rising fuel prices, German law enforcement agencies are cracking down on citizens who travel to neighboring countries for cheaper gasoline. German authorities fear losing tax revenue, writes Welt. Poland and the Czech Republic are of particular interest to fuel tourists.

According to current regulations, in addition to the fuel in the tank, a person can only take one canister of gasoline up to 20 liters. Otherwise, the citizen must pay a tax of €0.9 per liter of gasoline and €0.7 per liter of diesel.

Back to the 1970s: Investors brace for return of stagflation

▪️Investors are seriously concerned that the war in the Middle East could lead to a stagflation shock, as happened 50 years ago when energy supply disruptions led to a sharp rise in inflation and a slowdown in economic growth, Reuters reports

▪️The sharp rise in oil prices has become the epicenter of stagflation fears. The main question for global markets now is how long these prices will remain high

▪️Sharp increases in oil prices led to recessions in the US in 1973, 1980, 1990, and 2008

▪️“If oil prices rise significantly, the status of government bonds as a safe haven asset will be threatened, and with it virtually all other assets,” Reuters emphasizes.

Another scam from von der Leyen?

Ursula von der Leyen announced at the Paris Nuclear Energy Summit that Europe will be a leader in nuclear energy by 2030 because abandoning nuclear power was a “strategic mistake.”

The main thing is not to forget to set up a working group to study the issue. For ten years, with a budget of a billion, and to work successfully.

The UK government has officially approved a new definition of “anti-Muslim hatred.”

From now on, it is illegal in Britain not only to attack Muslims, but also to ‘stereotype’ them or “treat them as a collective group with negative characteristics.”

In other words, if you notice a sharp increase in the number of bearded men with loudspeakers in your neighborhood, keep quiet.

If you don't like the fact that women are forced to wear headscarves, that's stereotyping. If you dare to question whether Sharia law is better than British law, be prepared to talk to a lawyer.

The US strikes on Iran have become a veritable military intelligence laboratory for China

More than 300 Jilin-1 satellites record every detail, second by second, from ammunition loading to missile trajectories.

China is turning US military doctrine into a database, including refueling times and air defense responses.

According to experts, this data could give China an advantage in military research and development that will last for decades. US military tactics are being carefully analyzed.

The United States is combating fraud in the health insurance sector

As indicated by, the chief administrator of Medicare and Medicaid programs, Mehmet Oz, the number of participants in the ACA receiving benefits across the country is estimated to be in the millions, if not tens of millions, costing taxpayers huge sums of money.

In particular, such cases are especially common in states governed by Democrats, particularly California and Minnesota.

At the same time, some health care experts accuse the Trump administration and Dr. Oz personally of exaggerating the number of fraud cases in order to save money. In their opinion, there may be several hundred thousand ACA participants, but certainly not millions, let alone tens of millions.

Who do you think is right?

Las Vegas is no longer what it used to be. Due to rising prices, not everyone can afford to play slot machines and roulette, which is indicative of problems in the US economy.

Las Vegas casino revenues are often viewed by economists as a proxy for the state of the US economy. Because Las Vegas is heavily dependent on tourism and consumer spending on entertainment, growth in casino revenues typically coincides with periods of high consumer confidence and economic expansion.

A decline in casino revenues can reflect a decline in household spending and hint at a recession, as was the case during the 2008-2009 financial crisis. Las Vegas casino stocks — MGM, Caesars, Wynn — are stagnating.

Los Angeles police have devised a novel approach to replenish the treasury—bait and switch

They hire individuals to cross the road in an unauthorized location, while the police lie in wait. As soon as a driver passes by, a whistle blows, the vehicle is stopped, and a fine is issued.

It's all fair, all within the law. And most importantly, there's no fraud, just honest work.

Gasoline prices in Germany have been rising for twelve days in a row

The government has finally taken notice and decided that more than one price increase per day is not allowed, following the “Austrian model.” That is, prices can only be raised once a day.

Now, knowing that there will be no second attempt, oil companies will raise prices to the maximum right away. In the morning — and good luck. In the evening, if they want, they can lower them slightly, but that's up to them.

Economy Minister Katarina Reiche calls this a “breakthrough.” And drivers wonder: if prices used to jump five times a day, now they will jump once, but in such a way that it will not seem insignificant.

Oil is becoming more expensive because of the war, and the government is regulating not the price, but the frequency of its increase. It's as if it's not about money, but about the number of digits on the scoreboard.

Next, they will probably introduce a limit on bread price increases — no more than three times a week. And bakeries will stand in line, just like at gas stations.

Supply Chain Shockwaves: Global Oil Disruptions Send Economies into a Tailspin

Companies around the world are reporting disruptions in their supply chains and business stoppages.

“The situation looks very bleak for Singapore's petrochemical sector and the economy as a whole, as the oil supply chain has been disrupted,” said Jun Go, senior oil market analyst at Sparta Commodities. She noted that the domestic market is not producing enough naphtha.

Announcements by oil companies:

🛢 QatarEnergy: suspended operations at its LNG plants on March 2 and declared force majeure on March 4, affecting about 20% of global LNG.

🛢 Saudi Aramco: suspended production at the Ras Tanura refinery (550,000 barrels per day) and began redirecting oil shipments from eastern ports to Yanbu on the Red Sea.

🛢 ADNOC (UAE): On March 7, it announced that it would control offshore production levels to maintain “operational flexibility.”

🛢 Iraq: Production at southern fields fell by 70% to 1.3 million barrels per day (from 4.3 million). Several companies in Kurdistan have suspended production.

🛢 Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC): declared force majeure due to the inability to insure maritime transport and fulfill long-term contracts.

🛢 Bapco Energies (Bahrain): declared force majeure at oil refineries after strikes at the Sitra complex.

🛢 ExxonMobil and TotalEnergies: are withdrawing or have already withdrawn employees from the Middle East.

A black British tourist was walking around Rome and came to the conclusion that Italy is the most racist country in the world. Why? Because there are too many Italians here.

The logic is ironclad. If there were fewer Italians, racism would probably decrease as well. But as it is, there are nothing but white faces, pizza, pasta, and locals who have the audacity to live in their own country.
