Pablo Quirno reported that he had met with Marlin Khiew, vice president of Seatrium, and had toured the company’s shipyards in Singapore, which he described as leaders in marine and offshore engineering. There, he pointed out, was the FLNG Golar Hilli Episeyo, from Golar, a floating plant that would process natural gas from Vaca Muerta to produce LNG intended for export. Quirno indicated that Seatrium would refurbish the facility to operate off the coast of Río Negro starting in mid-2027, as part of the Southern Energy project. He added that it would have a capacity to produce 2.45 million tons annually and an expected operation of 20 years, which would allow converting Vaca Muerta resources into long-term energy exports. He also stated that Argentina was consolidating as a significant player in the global LNG market and linked that outlook with investment and clear rules for production and export. #GNL #VacaMuerta #EnergíaRenovable (translated)

Juho Salo criticized Finland's pension system and wrote that if the retirement age were to be raised, it could, in his opinion, be increased all at once to 100 years. He argued that in the system, a worker could pay pension contributions for 50 years, which would correspond to 25 percent of their salary, and receive a pension only at the age of 74. Salo pointed out that, according to him, pension accrual could not be collected. Salo called the system an economic catastrophe. He calculated the total amount of pension contributions and other shares to be 33.7 billion euros: 28.2 billion for occupational pensions, 0.7 billion for employees' shares, and 4.8 billion euros for state contributions. According to him, this amount could be used to pay a monthly basic income of 656 euros in addition to current social benefits and wages without tax increases. He compared the current system to a model where the retirement age would be 50 years and the pension would be 900–1,100 euros per month. Salo believed that money available earlier could be invested by individuals. He also criticized that those born before 1964 would receive the promised pension, while later generations would be left with the bill. Salo proposed that an investment of about 800 euros per month for 25 years would accumulate 240,000 euros without returns and over a million euros with investment returns. He related his comparison to the MSCI World index for the years 2001-2026 and said that wealth would remain for inheritance if 3-4 percent was withdrawn annually. According to him, such a system could make Finnish workers millionaires by the age of 50-60 and free up jobs sooner. Additionally, Salo criticized trade unions for not organizing strikes against pension contributions, development aid, and financing immigration, in his view. He compared the pension system to economic development aid and described it as an even worse solution. #eläke #perustulo #kansantalous (translated)

Mika Merano wrote that he considers the support development of the Finns Party to be positive. According to him, the party's support had tended to rise before the parliamentary elections and was greater than the polling numbers in the elections. He hoped that the development would continue until the elections and assessed that the support for the Finns Party would mean less corruption and immigration as well as prioritizing citizens. Merano congratulated the Left Alliance on their record results. He assessed that this was due to positive work and offering genuine alternatives, although he considered these alternatives to be poor and extremely harmful himself. He was not surprised by the Greens' support remaining stagnant, as he believed the Left Alliance already offered everything that the Greens did, and described the Greens' communication as sour whining. Regarding the situation of the Centre Party, Merano wrote metaphorically that the party's sun had set behind the culverts. He described the Centre Party's election speeches as promises of cheap fuel for tractors. #perussuomalaiset #eduskuntavaalit #suomi (translated)

Good morning, I would like to share an information from Morning Zapping, by the excellent Marc Fiorentino, who in turn refers to data from a study by the Wall Street Journal. Do you remember the K economy? The letter used to describe the structure of the economy of the United States. The top part of the K, the small portion of the population that drives growth. The bottom part of the K, the overwhelming majority of the population that fully suffers from the decline in purchasing power. You will see, the numbers are staggering. 0.1%. 0.1% of Americans. The ultra-rich. The Fed has published a study analyzed by the Wall Street Journal. First finding: their wealth has more than doubled since 2019. We are talking about 14.5 trillion dollars in additional wealth. Of which 10 trillion came from the increase in the stock market and investments. In 6 years. THIS 0.1% Of the population now controls 28 trillion dollars, which represents 15% of the total wealth of Americans. But the most spectacular figure: In 2022, the average wealth of this 0.1% was 45.8 million dollars. In 2026, it is 200 million. SO 28 trillion dollars of wealth for the 0.1% of the population. While the wealth of the bottom 50% of less wealthy Americans is 4 trillion dollars. $63,000 in average wealth. 3,000 times less than that of the 0.1%. PROFILE OF THE 0.1% Mainly corporate executives. Mainly shareholders. And therefore primarily holders of shares in listed or unlisted companies. That's where the explosion of their wealth came from. We are talking about only 137,000 families. Real estate has also significantly contributed to enrichment, and it is also true, but to a much lesser extent for a large portion of American families. Notice: This is a study regarding the USA, but it can easily be applied to the rest of the world as well. The rich are getting richer, while poverty numbers continue to rise. (translated)

Tuomo Saarni compared the state’s borrowing to people shifting their own expenses onto their neighbors and children. He wrote that the debts taken on by the state would be left for the children to pay, and tightening taxation on others would shift the bill to others. Saarni argued that real cuts in public finances could only be discussed when public sector expenditures consisted solely of statutory duties; until then, it would, in his opinion, be a matter of trimming expenses. #valtio #talous #lainat (translated)

This is no longer just a political blunder, but probably the most humiliating national failure in the history of Finland's industry. This analysis reveals black on white how totally and blindly the Finnish state leadership has sold the interests of its own citizens in front of the marketing department of Silicon Valley. Let's break down this "sleight of hand" into three devastating facts that make the government's actions completely inexcusable. First of all, despite all the prime minister-level hype, promises, and the liturgy of the green transition, the outcome is harsh. As a result of Google's massive investments, no new electricity production is being built in Finland—zero megawatts. The company's marketing department worded it so cleverly that the government, desperately thirsty for economic growth, swallowed the bait completely baffled. The leadership was smilingly taken in front of cameras as a guarantor for a project that will not bring a single new watt to the Finnish grid. The second issue is the hijacking of national base power. This is the real, chilling bomb of the news. Since no new electricity will come, where will these massive data centers draw their power? The answer: from our nuclear power. The analysis reveals that as much as 500 megawatts of Finland's nuclear power capacity is dedicated exclusively to Google until 2050. This nuclear power is not just any electricity. It is precisely that stable, weather-independent base power that is vital for Finland's price stability and security of supply. The government is thus surrendering half a gigawatt of infrastructure intended to safeguard Finnish citizens during cold days to a multinational monopoly for the next quarter century. Thirdly, the master has definitively become a servant. When 500 megawatts of stable nuclear power is tied to Google's inflexible use, and no new capacity is brought in, the mathematical equation is devastating for the Finnish consumer. When a calm cold spell strikes in January, our electricity grid will lack that 500-megawatt lifesaver. It is dedicated to AI computation, and the ordinary Finnish citizen will pay for it with horrendous spikes in market electricity prices and increased transmission fees from Fingrid. The Finnish government allowed a multinational company to blind itself with platitudes and let a foreign entity walk straight into the national switchboard. This is not an investment in Finland. This is a hostile resource grab, which the country's own leadership blessed with a smile, sacrificing the energy security and purchasing power of Finns at the altar of the company's marketing trick. In democracy, there is one simple and ruthless rule: if the highest leadership of the state cannot defend the interests of its own people, it must step aside. Looking at this chain of events and the facts revealed by Talouselämä, the demand for Prime Minister Orpo's resignation is no longer just political shouting. It is the only logical conclusion in a situation where the head of government has shown a total lack of judgment in securing national infrastructure and the economy. The prime minister's job is to be the master in his own country. His task is to sit at the negotiating table, look the world's richest companies in the eye, and say: "This is our grid, our nuclear power, and our nature. You will pay for the infrastructure, you will build the new electricity, and you will pay the royalties here. Otherwise, you can take your servers elsewhere." If the prime minister is not capable of this—if he is so desperate that he can be led by a marketing department's word games like a measuring cup—he does not have the backbone that leading Finland requires in this global squeeze. Then there is only one right action: hand the keys back to the people and resign. #Suomi #politiikka #energiapolitiikka (translated)
