      Debt is fine but only if you have an asset to back it. Problem with third world countries is that they have no liquid assets. Countries in the West can print money which is accepted by producers. For example - the dollar, pound, euro. No one will accept the Sri Lankan rupee if their Central Bank just prints it.

    I also note that the solutions proposed here are monetary. I suggest that any viable solution to the current crisis must also address the shortfall in real food production, and such solutions need to begin implementation immediately. I'm just a computer guy who's a hobby researcher, but I cannot find anything close to a comprehensive analysis of programs intended to raise food self-sufficiency among those places that import their food (and so are vulnerable to both supply fluctuations and subsequent price fluctuations).

      The Ten Principles of the Georgia Guidestones, America's Strangest Monument
      Are you familiar with the Georgia Guidestones? When someone first mentioned it to me I thought it both interesting and strange.
      Located 90 miles East of Atlanta, the monument consists of a set of 10 guidelines inscribed on a stone manmade structure in eight modern languages. At the top there's also a short message inscribed in four ancient language scripts. Some people are calling it an "American Stonehenge." The slabs and capstone stand just over 19 feet tall.
      The creators of this monument have chosen to remain anonymous and the man who conveyed the instructions to the Eberton Granite Finishing Company 19 miles away used a pseudonym. Obviously it cost a pretty penny to produce and install. Purportedly the group behind this had spent twenty years in planning.
      The inscriptions are in the following languages:
      English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Traditional Chinese, and Russian.
      The ten commandments inscribed there are as follows:
      1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
      2. Guide reproduction wisely - improving fitness and diversity.
      3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
      4. Rule passion - faith - tradition - and all things with tempered reason.
      5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
      6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
      7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
      8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
      9. Prize truth - beauty - love - seeking harmony with the infinite.
      10. Be not a cancer on the Earth - Leave room for nature - Leave room for nature.
      A lot of it sounds "nice" but one gets a little concerned about the first two, the first especially. I'm curious how they propose to reduce the earth's population by seven billion in order to fulfill their concept of balance with nature.
      Does the second statement refer to a return to eugenicists helping create a more perfect race? Is it Brave New World inspired, as if Huxley's book were a manual, instead of a red flag?
      Heres what WIRED wrote about the Guidestones:
      The Georgia Guidestones may be the most enigmatic monument in the US: huge slabs of granite, inscribed with directions for rebuilding civilization after the apocalypse. Only one man knows who created them-and he's not talking.
      The strangest monument in America looms over a barren knoll in northeastern Georgia. Five massive slabs of polished granite rise out of the earth in a star pattern. The rocks are each 16 feet tall, with four of them weighing more than 20 tons apiece. Together they support a 25,000-pound capstone. Approaching the edifice, it's hard not to think immediately of England's Stonehenge or possibly the ominous monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Built in 1980, these pale gray rocks are quietly awaiting the end of the world as we know it.
      You can find the rest of that story HERE.

    I'm from Andhra Pradesh, a state mentioned by Palki Sharma in India. We are here facing the inflation due to our incompetent leaders. Only motto of our CM is to borrow the money with high interest and distribute it to the people through social welfare schemes. I agree that Welfare of the people is important but development is foremost to that. The income generated from the development should lead a state but not mere borrowing and feeding the people to make them more lazy and useless. I'm pretty sure that if it continues like this, our state would definitely become another Sri Lanka.

      One of Astor Piazzolla’s most definitive works is ‘Adios Nonino (Farewell, Granddaddy).’ The tango was created by the Argentine composer as a way of saying goodbye to his father, who passed away in 1959.
      At the time, Piazzolla was on a tour of Central America when he heard news of his father’s death due to a bicycle accident.

This alone is such a hypocrisy to complain and point fingers while doing the same you condemn others about that I lost any faith in whatever she says.
      She was trying to make fun of Zelenskyy for being comedian in the past as it is some kind of shame. At same time they did provide little, but still humanitarian aid to Ukraine, while pretending that nothing serious is happening, if you believe what Putin is doing is okay while at same time realizing it forced millions of civilians to flee, thousands to die , and hundreds of thousands stuck there without basic necessities and their homes destroyed, this is not what neutrality is, this is weaseling your way around for your own good while pointing fingers and pretending to be better than everyone else.

      Who's biased now? 🤔😄
      Do you know how much oil other countries (including your own) purchase from Russia, especially the countries of the European Union? What her country buys is nearly nothing in comparison. Have European countries stopped buying oil from Russia?
      Which country does not look at what is best for their people? Each have different needs & requirements & they act accordingly. Isn't expecting another to behave only the way one thinks, is his/her limitation (& bias)?
      While what's happening in Ukraine is not acceptable to the "heart", WASN'T IT AVOIDABLE by the countries involved (including Ukraine) & the World Leadership, through further dialogue & negotiations? If "yes", then they are also to blame for the war. If "not avoidable", why consider preventing it?
      Another view on the war, contrary to what some here would like to believe, is Ukraine & its citizens have been made (?deliberately) puppets of few other countries in having an indirect war with Russia. At the cost of loss of life & property of Ukrainians, severe disturbances to life in other countries & the world order, they have an opportunity to test their weapons with no loss of life of their citizens. It is not about supporting Russia, but isn't the overall impact has been that?
      Yes, I agree with you that looking at another's bias is important before accepting anything & acting on it. Isn't that "another" could be I, you & citizen of any country, too? 🤔🙂

    A professional presenter doesn't emote. They don't hector or raise emotions. They are calm because they trust us to absorb the information and reach our own conclusions. This is always best done by the viewer in a calm way.
