Multi-story car parks make for a decent base for apartment buildings. They usually are built in areas people actually want to go to. What will be more interesting is what will happen with the large parts of cities, which will be abandoned. To make any alternative work well, you need density and that requires giving up large parts of cities, if the population stays roughly constant.

It is mostly suburbs on the Fan Fernando side. Not even that horrible ones by US standards. There are even some apartment buildings close to the current train station.

You missunderstand that. Mass transit has to finance itself, so it is basically capitalism. Cars on the other hand get a lot of support from the government, so it is much more like socialism.

The Danes arrived on Greenland before the Inuit. They then settled and left after a few centuries, but indigenous is a problematic argument for Greenland being independent.

Europe is not looking at China too much. The entire “no-limits friendship” with Russia is hurting that relationship pretty badly.

If he got Greenland enough time, until the US invades Iran, then it would be fine. Btw Iran war is coming soo. Trump is already moving military assets for it.

The main purpose of the board is to oversee the Gaza ceasefire. So this will probably lead to a bunch of Muslim leaders openly supporting Israel in some votes. To be fair they do not care and many openly do very similar things themself or even took part in it like Egypt. Still the population of the countries does care and mostly supports Palestine.

The ‘board of peace’ so far:

The funny part is that there is a Muslim majority…

There are the National Guard and State Guards, which could do that.

Sure, but there are a lot of countries, which are either cheap enough to retire to or are willing to accept qualified US workers. Also a lot of Americans have some relatively recent migrant background and might apply for citizenship by decent from some countries.

Especially being an IT professional and going to the Netherlands. DAFT visas, which are for entrepreneurs seem to be one of the most common ways to get into the EU.

And, of course, the crooked politicians here in Europe are actually following America more than China in this.

That is much less the case then it might appear. Out of the Top10 largest EV makers three are European(Volkswagen, BMW and Stellantis). When you look at wind, Europe has a few of the largest companies in the world. Europe is also basically the only place even attempting to compete with China in batteries, since Trump cut US support for that industry. There are plenty of more niche industries as well, in which Europe has some very strong companies.

Spanish cities are among the worsed, when it comes to cycling modal share. It is very easy to find large streets within cities, which lack any sort of cycling infrastructure. That is not the case for quite a few other countries.

Just to be clear Spain is generally very walkable and has good public transport, but just not cycling.

Thank god no European family of significance has ever done anything like this.

Not everybody lives in the US and in a lot of countries being able to go to work without a car is normal.

The USD has dropped significantly already. A year ago 1€=1.0279$ today it is 1€=1.1595$. That is a nearly 13% drop in value.

Ford manufacturered turbines for the V-2 rockets as well.

Maduro was hostile to the EU too. Why would the EU help a Russian ally to stay in power? Taiwan however is a friend.

But actually more important then that is that a lot of other countries dislike China and have territorial conflicts with them. India, Japan and the entire South China Sea conflict come to mind. They are all going to respond no matter what the US does. It is also unlikely to only be a kidnapping, but has to be a full invasion.

Canada is running a pretty strong boycott of US products right now. For example of the Canadians planning a trip to the US in 2025 56% of them cancelled it or went to another destination, which is not the US. Seriously airlines are replanning their flights, due to the massive drop in demand. Something similar is happening with US products and services, but some are hard to replace. However Netflix and Amazon are not.
