Houthis Blow Up Oil Tanker in the Red Sea

[Leeea]

That's the thing that eludes me with America receding from patrolling and securing international shipping routes.. Cause globalization is another method of having shit done for you dirt cheap without calling it slavery. Well one aspect of it. It stands to reason from a geopolitical perspective that you would seek to extend that advantage with the dollar being the de facto internationally recognized currency ... Is Chinese labor not cheap anymore?

bingo.

We don't care any more.


Chinese labor is not cheap any more. There is more then just the $ cost. Those tankers, they are our competitors.


This is primarily a shipping route to China. If the Chinese want to put boots on the ground in Yemen, I think everyone is going to get some pretzels out.
