What metric are you using to measure the market? The US GDP is around 50% larger than the EU.

I'm sure there are compelling ways to make the case either way.

Bullied to bed by Nagatoro. Ok. I concede.

It's a beautiful thought but at this point in time it would be used as a tool to exclude more than anything. So long as it is a voluntary service there would be a system in place to suppress certain groups.

Yeah. That just ends in the poor not having the ability to vote because they can't make time for that contribution.

Reminder that when you pay money toward the government in taxes you are working to support it in proxy.

In the US, the average weight for men is around 199 pounds (90 kg), and for women, it's around 171 pounds (77 kg). In India, the average weight for men is around 145 pounds (65 kg), and for women, it's around 121 pounds (55 kg). That being said Americans are on average 2.5cm taller. Average BMI is 26.5 in the US and 23 in India.

So twice the size? Not really. This picture is amusing though.

So yes. You deny history. What a shame.

You must get tired from all the mental gymnastics. Kettle meet pot.

I hadn't seen this but I'll look into it. Small dominos.

I only have the one account. You are delusional. I can't be bothered to reply with any more effort because it would be wasted on you.

A lot of our cars won't fit on Japanese roads and inner cities, however, the US already exports quite a bit of rice to Japan. I think the most popular rice used in Sushi is grown in California. That being said, if the market exists, then American automakers will attempt to make model(s) that appeals to Japanese sensibilities. This will probably just result in Toyota manufacturing marginally more in the US only to export the vehicles back to Japan.

Both sides broke the Minsk Agreement and the whole thing was a ceasefire brokered after Russia INVADED CRIMEA. Yes Russia started it. Now to some people it's a debate on if they were justified but it was absolutely and without question an aggressive movement of Russia on Ukraine.
