Will the U.S. Inherit Venezuela’s Oil Curse? 

The country’s biggest problem may not be President Trump.

Holländische Krankheit – Wikipedia

I think the longer it takes to pour oil on the troubles waters of international (free) trade and #tariff circus, the more likely it is that the #US will conceive their individual case of the #DutchDisease, only that it's not commodities, but #digitalservices that will strangle the #economy bit by bit.

(Please forgive the #pun. No, nevermind, I'm quite pleased with it.)

@juhe @BlumeEvolution @angeldruckt @mina @husmannismus dass #SystemChangeNotClimateChange ne Notwendigkeit ist, sollte allen klar sein...

Staatsmonopol-kapitalistische Regime sind wohl kaum als Rollenmodelle geeignet.

@[email protected] Yoah, „Spätkapitalismus“. Deswegen schneiden anti-kapitalistische Regime in Venezuela 🇻🇪, China 🇨🇳, Südafrika 🇿🇦, Kuba 🇨🇺 usw. bei der Überwindung der #Klimakrise auch so stark ab! Nicht. Könnten „Spätsozialisten“ bitte mal die Thesen toter Männer im 19. Jahrhundert lassen und zum Beispiel mutig lesen, was Wissenschaftlerinnen seitdem publiziert haben? Nur so als Anregung. @angeldruckt @[email protected] @[email protected] https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/monistische-wege-aus-polizei-und-wasserkrise-die-bloomington-school-nach-elinor-ostrom/

@davidzipper yeah, I guess @notjustbikes would call it "#DutchHealing" (as opposed to "#DutchDisease")...
Trying to listen to a Pink Floyd cover band and I cannot drown out the sound of Dutch people talking through everything. They treat live music as if it were an album at their own home. Awful. #DutchDisease

They're closing the gas fields under Groningen province. This is the lucrative gas field that the country made a bundle on, thereby inventing #DutchDisease.

However,
"The government aims to provide incentives to companies to develop fields under the North Sea."

#ClimateDenial is worst when a government does it.
