Betting on third-year charm
Betting on third-year charm
I recently filed my taxes for last year. As a small business, once all my taxes are filed is when I really get to figure out how much I really made after expenses. It's a time when all those big numbers get stripped down to show exactly how much I brought home.

In this Christo-fascist regime, sexual minorities, adherents of other religions and political dissidents are sent to toxic labor/conce...

President Yoon's pro-business promise
With U.S. President Joe Biden's visit to South Korea in the rearview mirror, it is a good time to look at President Yoon Suk-yeol's to-do list, which has many challenges on the political and economic front. One of the most urgent is the turbulence in global financial markets, which are currently being weighed down by fears of stagflation and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The l...

For the children
For the children
Listen to the Carpenters' “Bless the Beasts and the Children.” This famous song goes, “Bless the beasts and the children, For in this world they have no voice, They have no choice.” I'm reminded of these words, with the song's sad lamentation, because of several mass shootings in the United States, in particular Robb Elementary, Uvalde, Texas. America must face the epidemic o...

Ban nuclear weapons now
Ban nuclear weapons now
The events of the past three months in Ukraine - like Russia's annexation of Crimea and incursion into eastern Ukraine in 2014, the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the long proxy war in Syria - have given the lie to the claim that nuclear weapons prevent war. Nuclear deterrence might stop nuclear-armed countries from directly engaging in war with each other, just as it mig...

US vs. China in South Pacific
The South Pacific is again a battleground. China is not nearly at the stage of taking over any of the 15 islands stretching across the region of Oceania, but it's definitely disturbing the foes of Chinese expansionism.

Why do startups fail? A short review
Startups, to provide a quick definition, are pioneer companies designed to grow fast. These companies aim to launch and introduce their name onto the market, with the advocacy and goal of developing a unique product or service that is the brainchild of utter innovation to which customers will be equally attracted and desirous of.

Culture, creative sector and pandemic
Culture, creative sector and pandemic
Creativity suffers under crisis. Cultural activities are important aspects of a society for their contributions to inclusiveness, cultural democracy and nation-building. Performing arts are one such thing. The role of culture in promoting creative wealth, human capital and hence welfare has been discussed at length. However, the severe jolt by the COVID-19 pandemic has been a...

Defending Taiwan may well be test too far
Defending Taiwan may well be test too far
They must lead the unofficial geopolitical loyalty league worldwide. For if there is one country and people in the Asia-Pacific that has logged more miles through mud, jungle and desert to follow the U.S. military almost anywhere, Australia is the one.

Toward an Atlantic Economic Framework
Toward an Atlantic Economic Framework
U.S. President Joe Biden came to Korea for a productive official visit just 10 days after the swearing-in ceremony of President Yoon Suk-yeol. For President Yoon's Korea, the quest for economic security is the main foreign policy priority in the face of international turbulence created by COVID-19 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as well as by the unjustified unilateral m...
