Then the price of a panel dropped 90% in a decade, and the German factories closed one after another. Today more than 80% of the world's solar panels come out of China. None of that was luck. It was printed in a public document years before it happened. Every five years Beijing publishes a list of the industries it intends to take over, then spends whatever it takes. The newest list was adopted in March 2026. 141 pages, running to 2030. Robotics, biotech, aerospace, quantum, semiconductors, and more. One detail tells you how far this has already gone. The patent on the world's most famous weight loss drug expired in China in the same month the plan landed. And the drug meant to replace it was licensed from a Chinese company for up to 2 billion dollars. 03.08.26 #china

It is an interesting read.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOZwLhltouo The Pattern Behind Every Major Civilization Collapse A scientist predicted the 2020 political crisis back in 2010 — using math. Here's the pattern behind every major civilization collapse in history, and why knowing about it isn't enough to stop it. From ancient Rome's currency debasement to Maya deforestation to Weimar hyperinflation, every collapsed civilization left behind the same warning. In this video, we break down the science of why history repeats — and why even educated, well-informed societies can't seem to stop it. You'll learn: → Joseph Tainter's "complexity trap" and why success breeds collapse → Peter Turchin's cliodynamics model and his eerily accurate 2020 prediction → What the Roman denarius reveals about modern economic policy → Why Arnold Toynbee's "dominant minority" theory explains political paralysis today → The one structural shift that actually breaks the cycle 30.06.26

Text on video What if the investments showing in your brokerage account aren’t legally yours in quite the way you think? In this episode, I look at The Great Taking by David Rogers Webb and break down the mechanism at the heart of his argument — without getting lost in the legal plumbing. Download the book for free - https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/1ee7... We look at how modern investment ownership can move from direct registration, to nominee accounts, to pooled holdings, and then potentially into collateral arrangements where secured creditors may have stronger rights in a financial crisis. The important question is not whether you accept Webb’s wider theory of a deliberate financial “taking”. It is whether the structure of the modern financial system creates risks that most ordinary investors simply do not understand. I also look at the protections that do exist, why fully paid investments are not simply available for brokers to seize at will, and where Webb’s argument becomes more controversial. In short: this is not a prediction that your investments are about to disappear. It is an explanation of what might happen when ownership, leverage, insolvency law and a major financial crisis all collide. A little scary. But worth understanding. In this episode: • Who David Rogers Webb is • What The Great Taking actually claims • Nominee accounts explained • Why your shares may sit in a pooled account • Securities lending and collateral • What “safe harbour” means in a financial collapse • What happened around Lehman Brothers • The difference between genuine legal risk and conspiracy theory • What investors should actually be asking their brokers and custodians
