@nils_gilman or should that be the dime …?

@nils_gilman maybe the thing to do is use plural grid to map American power …. Then maybe the penny will drop!

@HellePanke @adam_tooze It should be noted that the antisemitic Hungarian government is getting rid of a Lukacs' sculpture in Budapest.

@HellePanke @adam_tooze Lukacs' archives has also been closed by the Hungarian ruling party. A disgraceful act with obvious intents.

@nils_gilman but its fallen on deafening silence so I may keep it to myself and post about America, which is what people seem to react

@nils_gilman my next move was going to be to test my back of envelope list against things like tariff classifications, sectoral GDP data etc

@nils_gilman fascinating. Obviously its a matter of elementary logic. But to see it spelled out as an analytic method is truly interesting.

@jonsindreu Politics of EZ extend and pretend may be toxic. But I don’t buy argument that that toxicity goes away when you break EZ up.

@jonsindreu you can’t evaluate technical merits of breaking up of euro wo politics of that project = awful naivety of Lexit folks
