En estos tiempos modernos, invadidos por la luz eléctrica que esfuma los suaves atardeceres y oculta la dulce entrada de la noche, suele ignorársela a la Luna. La olvidamos. Sabemos que anda por ahí, dando vueltas, pero no tenemos presente ni de qué tamaño se nos presentará esta noche. A pesar de que por siglos el hombre ha estado muy atento a sus movimientos, ya que fijándose en ella aprendió a conocer el tiempo y su medida. Los pueblos antiguos la imaginaron una diosa -diosa de la noche, de la obscuridad, del frío, de los sueños que turban al hombre- muy ligada a la poesía con su eterna lección de alegre y optimista renacimiento con cada luna nueva. Los griegos -¡cuándo no!, los inventores de la lógica- la estudiaron objetivamente; Anaxágoras imaginó que sus valles y montañas se parecían mucho a los de la Tierra; Aristóteles demostró que era esférica; Aristarco calculó su diámetro y distancia. Y otros muchos, como Pitágoras, la imaginaron habitada por inteligentes marcianitos. A partir del invento del telescopio a sus detalles se lo pudo apreciar con más prolijidad. Sus mares, llanuras, cráteres, montañas, quedaron conocidos y registrados.

Pero nunca falta alguien que pinche el globo.

Necesita que esa esfera mágica y luminosa que contempla a la Tierra mirando con envidia esta vida que bulle en su superficie, siga mirándolo con su mágico esplendor.

Quédate siempre en mis pupilas y en mi corazón.

Also, America can’t take the risk to fail with a product, that’s why -I agreed- we “produce” services, that’s it.

Just 20 years ago, people thought China can only copy and replicate but not innovate. 20 years later, nearly every sector is being challenged or surpassed by China.

One big problem is the car industry. They are failing in another countries. American automakers are failing in America. Why would they do any better in other countries?
Historically, Chinese cars have had a reputation for lower build quality and reliability compared to cars from more established brands. However, this perception is changing as Chinese automakers improve their standards. Some consumers worry that Chinese cars may not meet the same safety standards as cars from other countries. While many Chinese cars are now built to international safety standards, there can still be concerns about consistency. Chinese car brands are relatively new to many markets, and they haven’t yet built the same level of brand loyalty and trust as established brands like Toyota or Honda. Access to parts and service centers for Chinese cars can be limited in some regions, making maintenance and repairs more challenging. Trade tensions and tariffs can affect the availability and cost of Chinese cars in certain markets, making them less attractive to buyers.

South Asian companies have little expenses. South Asia’s competitiveness may lie in its firms – boosting their productivity, helping them take advantage of rising costs in East Asia and connecting them to global markets.

Multinational corporations do not get “double taxed” when they bring their profits back to the U.S. They only have to pay the difference between the tax rate between the country of origin and the home country. And most multinationals pay nothing, thanks to loopholes and exemptions. 70% of companies pay nothing in corporate tax.
First companies pay taxes, second the owners pay taxes. Instead of being jealous about what the wealthy have… building big homes and having nice things, consider all the people employed to build the big homes, nice cars and that those who benefit from providing the products and services…

It’s really TRIPLE taxation. Foreign corporate tax, then U.S. corporate tax, then when the remaining profits are distributed to the stockholders as dividends, the stockholders are taxed.

Company’s also move manufacturing overseas to seek more relaxed environment policies, and avoid paying a minimum wage to employees. Just because they are trying to “survive” does not make there decisions moral.

In Indonesia, you only need 300 dollars to hire a worker for 30 days. Why would any US Company have to pay 3000 dollars for a worker to work for a month in US while they can move to Asia and hire a worker for just 300 dollars?
Actually, it is the other way around. Companies are and will leave the country. it’s not just taxes, it’s also cost of labor. even corporate tax was zero, how do you expect American companies to compete with countries where workers are paid mere pennies for hours of work?

One big problem is the car industry. They are failing in another countries. American automakers are failing in America. Why would they do any better in other countries?
We don’t even buy American made cars here in the US. Why would the Chinese buy America cars when Chinese cars are cheaper and better these days.

Lower taxes = higher profits = higher consumer choice
