It's a good time to move away from the fast-food model of durable goods.


You can choose to do that if you want free country.

But India seems to look at the alliance between Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran - and they want in. India seems keen to align with the baddies, so I would expect Indian exports - such as they are - to be pretty much non-existent in western markets going forward.


Why should India align with a bully? If you give in to Trump, he just demands more. I applaud any country that defends its sovereignty and stands up to bullies.


By the way, India agreed to give up Russian oil and buy it from the US if the US offered the same price as Russia. If buying from Russia is so bad, why didn't the US agree to sell them oil at the Russian price?


Trump shut down USAID> Our official policy is not to be subsidizing other countries.

India hasn't figured out how to thrive economically yet, and it's a country that goes back over 5000 years -- one of the o oldest continuous civilizations in the world. Selling cheaper oil right now for a few years isn't going to fix it, if 5000 years hasn't.


So why should India give in to America's bullying? If America's policy is America first, shouldn't India's policy be India first?


PS: were you meaning to suggest that it wasn't already this? That India was some kind of self-sacrificing noble martyr to further the interests of other countries at the expense of their own? Please.


Why should India trade cheap Russian oil for expensive American oil? It is a poor country.


IDK, maybe because that money is killing innocent women and children in Ukraine? Oh wait, India doesn’t care. I forgot.

America is supplying weapons to Israel and killing innocent women and children in Palestine. See how that works? American is not on the moral high ground here.

America hasn't even had 250 years to figure this out, and India has been around for over 20 times that long. Neither country is a moral paragon, but surely both can do better.

This is why trump threatened a tariff on semiconductors to punish Apple and so Apple gave him a gold thing with Apple glass. He likes shiny objects. Problem solved.


Disgusting

I'd like to know any of those with labels on the container. I'd definitely avoid those items from India!

I'm sorry, do you not know what the meaning of "durable good" is?

Pro tip: start with the meaning of "durable."

PS: here you go --

"Tangible products that can be stored or inventoried and that have an average life of at least three years."
https://www.bea.gov/help/glossary/durable-goods


"Durable goods, as the name suggests, are things that don't break easily. More specifically, they're products that are used for more than three years.

Planes, trains and cars: durable goods. The chair you're sitting on: durable good."
https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2012/03/28/149523535/what-are-durable-goods-anyway


Pharmaceuticals are "consumables." They are not durable goods. Basic economics.

Nothing if I can help it. India is a shithole.

You need to go back and study how each country's current conflict got started (how Israel was attacked and how Russia attacked Ukraine). As much as I am sadden by the deaths of innocent people, they are apples-and-oranges. Educate yourself.
