🇫🇷🇺🇸 - Basically, France and the US are in a slowly emerging political and ideological confrontation.
France is the liberal leader who turned more "vertical" to counter the far-right and is leading other countries in the same vein.
US is the postliberal entity who leads the right-wing bloc.
And... low-key I feel like the Vatican could be a "third way" leader in this tacit inter-Western Cold War.

Behind a paycheck, the largest source of income for the 1% highest earners in the U.S. isn't being a partner at an investment bank or launching a one-in-a-million tech startup. It is owning a medium-size regional business. Many of them are distinctly boring and extremely lucrative, like auto dealerships, beverage distributors, grocery stores, dental practices and law firms, according to Zidar and Zwick.

There was a case study in 2019 that examined 11m LLC tax returns.
A typical firm owned by the top 0.1% is a regional business with $20m in sales and 100 employees, such as an auto dealer, beverage distributor, or a large law firm.

🇺🇲 - Barrel Pork Politics is the reason why local politics in the US is dominated by moderates.
Across the world, clientelism is a powerful tool for stability.
Clientelism is despised by the middle class because it removes the political monopoly from them, and by both extremes of the spectrum because it diminishes the power of identity politics.

Why King Charles in Canada? Simple. Canada can't over-rely on the US anymore. So we need 2 blocs as allies:
1) France and the EU
2) Britain, the monarchy, Australia and New Zealand.
Making the King come to Ottawa to open parliament, its a clear symbol to the British government that Canadian sovereignty is to be defended, and that ambiguity on the economics interests and sovereignty of a country you share a monarch with is unacceptable.
