The One That Got Away - Dominus Owen Markham

There’s a particular kind of ache that comes not from failure, but from almost. Not the clean, honest sting of something that went wrong… the slow, nagging awareness that something could have gone…

1️⃣4️⃣ This Isn’t Charity

“We can’t help everyone,” they say.
But they’re not asking for help.

They’re asking for permission to contribute.
To invest in a life here.
To build, to work, to care, to thrive.

And the returns?
They pay dividends for all of us.

This isn’t charity. It’s opportunity.

4️⃣ Not Zero-Sum

Immigration doesn’t take slices from a pie—it grows the pie.
More people working, trading, and creating means more for everyone.

Sometimes, I have the suspicion that they are actually being racist, exhibiting an overly patriotic mindset in which they only want their country to dominate. They use "the decline of America" as justification for threatening other countries, employing tariffs against China as a means of control. They will use any mistake made by China to justify everything they want to do. They claimed that China implemented reciprocal tariffs, and then they used that as an excuse to increase the tariffs to 140%. I must believe that "Make America Great Again" may be a sign of one entity's maximalism. Meanwhile, China and the CCP have already told the world that they are there to prosper together, providing opportunities for other countries to develop. If they truly believe in freedom of speech, they should also listen to Chinese officials who state that "a trade war has no winner.
