This one will leave a mark.

Obviously a poor investment strategy for most consumers, but I don’t see the CCP rushing in with the equivalent of TARP money.

Do a search for:

Evergrande
Country Garden
Vanke

The amount of debt is staggering and is more likely than not to end China’s consumer economy experiment. China is hosed, the question is how big are the economic ripples in the context of globalization?

Hope the company accelerates the implementation schedule because they want/need Captains.

Hey, it’s not like the world is unstable at the moment and oil prices are soaring while yields are dropping!

They’re probably already getting ready to argue religious exemptions to castration.

This is what happens when you walk around with your IQ displayed on a baseball cap.

I don’t think there will be another QOL opportunity in a contract and it’s the 12 month outlook that drives me to this conclusion.

They can assign new hire captains as soon as the TA passes. They just cannot start the accelerated captain training until all items are implemented.

Just funny as an outsider to read all these recent threads trying to make No voters out to be lunatics/idiots/villains. You’re shaking like a little b*tch but it’s ok you’ll probably vote this in over 80%.
