get to 1.5 degrees global warming targets. and that s clearly one area where engagement, janet, is of value, in terms of kind of the bigger objectives thatjoe biden has. but what about this relationship with countries like the solomon islands these debt traps, as m was putting it. i mean, we see it in lots of parts of the world, don t we? we see it in africa, we see it in the caribbean i remember going to dominica, a tiny island and talking to locals there who are very resentful they loved the free sports stadium they d been by the chinese, they quite liked the new roads but boy, did they resent the fact that the roads were being built by chinese workers, not by locals. yeah, it s important- to remember this really is not at all like the cold war. this isn t ideological. china is not a communist country in any sense thatj marx would understand. it has huge disparities - of wealth, it has a super rich bourgeoisie now, who are ferocious consumers, - and it is a very, very active
this isn t ideological. this could be in a few years whether president bernie sanders can take $100 bil and give it out for congress without giving it to congress, and there s a constitutional issue. senator, i m excited to say i m not letting you go. we re going to keep you around for your first fallback friday in a few minutes. i m going to fit in a quick 30-second break when i have malcolm nance talk about this question, what does putin have on trump, and donald trump s wild day undermining his call for an emergency when we re back in 30. to be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing it s best to make you everybody else. means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight and never stop. does this sound dismal? it isn t. it s the most wonderful life on earth.
