"It's quite common amongst profitable small businesses to actually avoid scaling up or trying avoid being more profitable out of fear of higher vat costs and higher administration costs."

"THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN INDUSTRIAL STATE" "Further talks have occured of the need for 'real' economies and not 'fake' economies. People have grown tired of the financial-fictionalism as the paper oil market collides with the actual oil market as many economies shift towards a service-focused economy. But one asks, how do we get a 'real' economy?" "The 'real' economy that people talk about is an economy that is focused more on the real or tangible goods or more specifically in this case industrialisation? But what does industrialisation actually involve or entail?" "When implementing economic instruments, it's important to remember that not all economies are equal. You have your cards. And they have their cards. There are certain economic contraints within your economy for example, you might lack the raw materials, you might have low labour shortages, you might have a small budget. It's important to understand your constraints. For example, having a high exchange rate means that exports become less globally competitive in the market in terms of price. How do you deal with this? If you are borrowing a lot of money, how much are the interest payments?" "There are other forms of constraints which one of them is political constraints within a country in which various stakeholders seek to be satisfied. To understand this, look at gulf countries. Many of the countries actually refuse to go towards a proper form of industrialisation and more specifically arms industrialisation as they fear a large domestic arms industry could lead to a coup and the saudis try to 'offset' this via their massive imports of western arms which they purchase from multiple european countries and american companies in which a lot of money is exchanged. In other words, in many cases, its not that countries aren't capable of it, they're simply unwilling to do it and in the context of industrialisation, the difference being willing to do something and not willing to something means a lot and there is a magnitude of differences that outwardly observed." "To take into consideration when we are talking about industrialisation, when industrialisation was initially talked about, it was mentioned in the context in an era of where feudal lords who owned the land used the serf and the slaves as part of their expansion and the fertilisation of their land in a sedantry agarian economy." "In the context we live, we are talking about shift from a services focused economy towards a more industrialised country or countries that are trying to skip industrialisation as part of their attempt in obtaining the service type economy that many people in the global south see within the west. Obviously the problem with trying to skip industrialisation as part of their attempt to get the service type economy the west has is that the service type economy that the west has relies on significant amount of hardware and technological progress which is unlikely to be done without industrialisation." "But how do we move forward from a service type economy to an industrialised economy. What is meant by a service type economy in the context we live in is that we are referring to a financialised economy more specifically where a large proportion of the money is being allocated or circulated within the financial sector. This isn't to dismiss the financial sector as being integral to the economies of today in fact south korea forcibly pushed banks into financing the south korean industry i.e. the industry that is associated with the chaebols. But it is undeniable that many economies are reliant on the financial products that is offered by the finance sector and that many common people that struggle to purchase assets such as cars or houses tend to sigh themselves towards the finance sector as they seek methods of obtaining that asset. The finance sector chases after high profit margins which is quite obvious as many firms want to increase their profit but understanding this is important in why if the finance sector was left alone, it is unlikely to willing finance the industrialisation of the economy. To understand this further, we look at the categorisations between different assets where one of them is an appreciating assets and the other is depreciating assets. The popular appreciating assets tend to be houses especially in capital cities as demand tends to increase as the population increases and the land in which the house was built becomes more scarce i.e. the housing supply tightens. Whilst investing in houses could be beneficial to the construction company which still has a role in the industrial state, much of the construction is towards retail housing and not really factories. Meaning much of the money and the finanacing and the consumption is allocated toward mainly either the finance sector via the consumption of loans and the retail housing sector. This is very much an obstacle towards industrialisation because industrialisation involves the financing of machinary but the thing with machinary is that it tends to depreciate in value not vice versa like housing. This is because machinary can get rusty, they become more used and they tend to wear down. This is even seen with commercial cars which common purchased by the consumer. In other words banks are not really interested in investing in companies with depreciating assets or the financing of such items when even the housing industry is much more profitable than the automotive industry which has products sold to multiple consumers. The question is how to obtain industrialisation in this context?" "Before dwelling onto the methdologies of industrialisation let us remind ourselves that certain countries have political constraints and economic constraints which prevent full industrialisation and that full industrialisation involves the usage of multiple economic instruments which push and push and push the stubborn door towards industrialisation. Don't think that using one economic instrument is enough to push industrialisation. Are you prepared to use multiple economic instruments at your disposal?" "The economic conditions needed for proper industrialisation: Low consumption level, high saving rate, cheap financing of machinary, low exchange rate, high forex reserve. Now some people understand the cheap financing side of things but why low consumption level and low exchange rate? Consumer consumption allocates money within the economy towards consumer goods and not capital goods such as machinary and low exchange rate is needed to keep exports which the industrial sector manufactures more competitive and it tends to be foreigners who demand industrial products and not domestic consumers." "However some might point out that machinary are not as popular as consumer goods for example the textiles industry gets more revenue and increases the currency reserve more than many machinary companies therefore the compromise towards this especially in the context of a very financialised and consumerist economy is the exportation of dual-use goods. Obviously they are not as effective as the actual machinary that the country wants to sell them, but it is a compromise after all." "However there are forms of methods in pushing industrialisation within the context of a financialised economy and the marketing strategy or pushing the bubble. Similar to the dot com bubble and the ai bubble, many bubbles are grow biggier with elaborate marketing strategies which exaggerate the potency of their products in which venture capital companies, finance companies and several other companies end up doing investing inside this bubble as they are swayed by these marketing strategies despite the profits being negative which is seen with openai." "There are several economic instruments that government is capable of using in obtaining industrialisation which is generally the following: purchasing foreign currency assets, changing interest rates (interest rate lowered if someone wants to lower exchange rate but increases consumption, interest increased if someone wants to lower consumption levels but increase exchange rate), subsidies (subsidies could be used to selectively pick companies that achieve particular production goals to avoid subsidies making companies to ineffcient), tariffs which could be used to aid domestic industry."

"Import more? Sell your currency more. Export more? More demand for your currency."

"FINANCIAL SURVEILLANCE OF THE STATE." "As new forms of surveillances are used by governments, spy agencies and even corporations though CCTV, computer vision and even Wi-Fi, taxation has been used by governments in tracking down the behaviours of individuals via the tracking of economic activities. During the supposed gaza peace initiative which was proposed by the americans which invited various state members including Pakistan, one of the proposals was a cashless society in which payments are done via electronic means and this was monitored by the Zionists themselves. You hear this rhetoric of a cashless society more common even in western countries where you find government insisting taxes being paid electronically or limiting the amount of cash withdrawal whilst being more lenient towards banks transfers of large amounts this is part of a larger financial surveillance system in which every transaction is recorded on a database and collated and analysed." "There are several mechanisms that this financial surveillance system deploys as part of this surveillance. VAT. VAT which is acronym for 'value added taxation' is an indirect form of taxation which increases the price by a certain amount which might vary according to the categories introduced by the government which might possibly include zero rated transactions which is quite strange to include anyways since if you're not using to charge it, why record it anyways unless you were trying to do find out what transactions that the individual is doing. VAT is different to income/corporation tax in which money extracted on overall profits whilst VAT is recorded on individual transactions meaning your everyday transactions is recorded each day." "A mechanism of financial surveillance that is used by governments is biometrical scanning where fingerprints are recorded as part of payments. Although this isn't widespread in comparison to the typical electronic payments it is still a thing and the request of biometrical data continues in which fingerprints and even eyelids are detected. To understand this,fingerprints data is used to detect someone."

"The idea of looking towards the east asia whilst ignoring the middle east is absurd as east asia is hungry towards the oil and gas of the middle east which is not only connected to the energy companies but also textiles companies, pharmaceutical companies and the chip industry."

"The economy of a country is like a fluid that changes shape in different containers."

"The key to the military industrial complex is a functioning automotive industry."

"With the expectation that inflation is likely to rise even further as the war in the middle east rages with oil with oil production being cut massively and oil reserves being quickly utilised as a response, mortgage rates have increased as part of an attempt to keep interest rates above inflation rate."

"Bitcoin mining which is an expensive process which consumes large proportions of electicity to the extent of which mining operations accounts for 20% of Ethiopia's electricity are very vulnerable to such energy shocks as countries seek to ration as much electricity as possible."

"Was it 9/11 or was it October 7th or was it both?"

"Insurance in shipping industry , insurance in car industry, insurance in plane industry where else have they spread their wings?"

"The consequence of high oil prices does not only lead to higher fuel prices, it lead to higher costs in the pharmaceutical companies and the farming industry as petroleum is versatile material."

Modern insurance companies started to become more widespread after the fire in london in 1666.

How do you respond to those who say that bitcoin mining consumes too much electricity for example in Ethiopia, it allocates around 30% of the electricity output to bitcoin operations?

"As drones proliferate amongst state militaries, the demand for laser technology increases."

"With the A.I. boom around , companies are now desperately try to market themselves as A.I. friendly as a marketing tactic as they use older version of A.I. technology and not the chatbots which people refer to."

"Economics of warfare: Drone technology." "Drone technology is actually quite old really and there isn't actually a lot of new things associated with it. Much of drone technology was mainly used by others as means of killing individuals and surveillance. The idea of it being used by others as something that is of equivalent to artillery was at the time, an unusual idea, but this is how drones are now being used now in Russia, Ukraine, Syria, Iran and Palestine." "The lethality of such drones as a means of artillery as iran used commerical drones and they turned it into a weapon of war has shown it isn't only used for targetted operations but it is used by others in a wider scale of warfare. But the global reaction of such drones were demonstrated by the azeris after the fall of Armenia when drones were frequently used by the azeris against Armenian soldiers when the Armenians not only lost territory, they lost the supposed 'autonomous' region. Such a military result led to frequent chatter amongst people about the effectiveness of bayraktar drones which turkey has promoted to several militaries including some of the current member of the AES in Africa. But the lethality of these drones were shown again by the ukrainians during the russian-ukraine war, where there is large amounts of drone footage of soldiers being killed, tanks being overwhelmed by drones. And this is why there is a lot of fear around iran's drones which they have in abundance." "But those who aren't aware what threat do drones actually pose in the battlefield and what does this actually mean in terms of economics." "A drone is by definition a remote controlled pilotless flying machine that hovers in the sky. It's a small lethal machine that has been used by others for a range of military uses such as surveillance, reconnaissance, surface to air weaponry, air to surface weaponry, air to air weaponary and part of small level escalation. When taking into consideration of such drones alongside the cheapness of such drones, it is no shocker that that such drones is a shock to the arms market especially if it is manipulated to various uses by others and since they are so cheap to manufacture by others countries find it so easy to manufacture hundreds of drones that are not only easily expendable which the buyers are willing to accept to the extent that they are now seen as the ak-47s of the aircraft industry they are also seen by others as multirole." "Drones have been used by others as part of surveillance but more specifically air to surface surveillance within close altitude airspace in which it monitors artillery, soldier positions and buildings in a vertical fashion." "Technically it has been used by others as air to air surveillance but this isn't often practiced in comparison to air to surface surveillance." "Whilst there are a range of surveillance equipment which several spy agencies use. The comparison to be made in this context is in reference to satellite technology in which satellite technology scans entire geographical areas which obtains much more camera footage in comparison to drone footage." "The weakness of satellite technology in comparison to drone footage is quite simple as apart from the costs, satellite technology despite its precision does not monitor closely of assets in comparison to drones which are more precise since it more close by. Some might dismiss these types of things but various militaries have used inflatable decoy aircrafts which satellite technology finds difficult to detect. Even aircraft surveillance finds it difficult to detect. Although in this case many countries don't see it as necessarily a case of zero-sum game in the sense of choosing one over the other as satellite technology contains navigation systems which are embedded in several drones." "Drones are viewed by others as a substitute to missiles such as cruise missiles, ballistic missiles and air to surface missiles as these drones are remotely controlled projectiles in which the human is able to change the trajectory of the drone with higher variance in comparison to these missiles which it follows a specific trajectory." "Whilst drones are much more slower and it carries less payload in comparison to the average ballistic missile, given its variance of trajectory is considered by others as useful to use but since they are much more smaller in size it means that the cost of intercepting these drones is much more higher than the drone itself." "Drones have been used by others such as members of government who are familiar with their favourite word of escalation. Escalation, escalation, deescalation, escalation, deescalation. This repetition of words is uttered over again in an attempt of them showing a form of communication with the enemy in an attempt of signalling their intent to the other of whether they want to escalate, to deescalate or to deceieve the other into falling for the facade of a supposed negotiation. In this sphere in which various possibilities play out, drones are used by others as part of the escalation game but more specifically low level escalation because of how both the public and the head of government perceive it." "A massive suicide bombing triggers a massive reaction from the public with the fear of who is probably going to do this next time alongside with the government seeking a response which reinforces their narrative as they pin the blame on those associated with the bomber. With drones it is quite different since they are remotely controlled meaning they are perceived as faceless and the government feels more willing to not comment about it. Whilst the damage of drones is not to the extent of other weapons such as nuclear weapons. This is where perception matters." "A country that wants to show teeth whilst avoiding conventional warfare they probably prefer using drones that go over the demarcations of the opposing country. A country that wants to test the lines prefers to use drones as a form of small-level escalation. There, drones are not really a substitute of various military assets such as ballistic missiles despite it being multi-role. It is viewed by others as a complementary weapon in their military arsenal." "What does drones in the battlefield mean in terms of economics. On the micro level, companies find it easier to manufacture these drones meaning the barriers to entry into the military industry reduces as more competitors become participants within the military industry but on a maecro-level given the cost of drones, governments are more inclined to invest in capital goods or dual-use goods and allocate more money towards it meaning although it is unlikely to see money to be hugely allocate away from investing in retail housing market, governments become more inclined in trying to nudge banks or directly invest into these drone programs as the commercial asset and the military asset begin to overlap."

"There are various of financing options which have been deployed in the context of obtaining capital equipment, one such example is hire purchase which is a lease agreement in which you pay for the lease in the form of installments which can be used to purchase the capital equipment."

"Western governments have very few tools in expanding aggregate supply of the economy as much of their concern about their state is about the level of inflation which the masses do not tolerate but since much of western Europe has deindustrilised and has shifted towards financing mainly housing in comparison to machinery and financialisation many governments prefer importing more migrants who are willing to work which does expand the aggregate supply of the economy."
