出國趣73-2 克洛伊的經濟學人 Chloe's Economist~ 美國川普帶來的憤怒經濟+小分享:各國看電影的經驗!1. Why the MAGA (Make America Great Again) economy is thriving
The world’s largest market is becoming two
1) America is increasingly splitting into two distinct economies: one liberal, the other conservative or "MAGA." This divide is evident in consumer behavior, economic activity, and industrial composition. Conservatives favor brands like MyPillow, Black Rifle Coffee, and Jeremy’s Razors—products often marketed with overt patriotism or anti-woke sentiments. Liberals tend to mock these as scams or culturally backward, but the MAGA economy is thriving nonetheless.
美國正日益分裂為兩個截然不同的經濟體系：一個是自由派的，另一個是保守派或所謂的「MAGA」派。這種分裂在消費行為、經濟活動以及產業結構上表現得非常明顯。保守派偏好像 MyPillow、Black Rifle Coffee 和 Jeremy’s Razors 這類品牌——這些產品通常以強烈的愛國情懷或反覺醒文化的形象進行行銷。自由派則常嘲諷這些品牌是騙局或文化上的倒退，然而，MAGA 經濟體依然蓬勃發展。
2) Despite Democratic areas contributing two-thirds of U.S. GDP, Republican regions still generate around $10 trillion annually, which would rank as the world’s third-largest economy. These areas are also seeing rising incomes and population growth. For example, nearly half of all Americans earning over $1 million in 2...2025-05-2332 min

Mr Navalny’s team accused Russian authorities of withholding his body from his family to “cover traces of murder”. More than 340 people were detained across Russia after they tried to pay tribute to Mr Navalny, according to a rights group. The G7’s foreign ministers observed a minute’s silence for Mr Navalny and demanded that Russia immediately clarify the causes of his death.

1. China’s top diplomat, Wang Yi, met America’s national-security adviser, Jake Sullivan, in Malta. Among the topics discussed was the war in Ukraine. A day later Mr Wang arrived in Moscow, where he met Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin. China claims to be neutral in the war, but its officials repeat Kremlin talking points. Local media said Mr Wang’s trip would help pave the way for a visit by Mr Putin to China.
中國最高階的外交官王毅在馬爾他 (Malta) 會見了美國國家安全顧問蘇利文 (Jake Sullivan)；討論的話題之一是烏克蘭戰爭。一天後，王毅抵達 (俄國首都) 莫斯科，並會見了俄國總統普丁。中國聲稱在戰爭中保持中立，但其官員們重複了克里姆林宮 (即俄國權力核心) 的談話要點。當地媒體稱王毅此行將為普丁訪問中國鋪路。
2. Volodymyr Zelensky gave a speech in person to the UN General Assembly in New York, in which he warned that Russia is trying to smash the established international order and push the world to a “final war”.

Nurses were due to strike again at the beginning of March, but have put this on hold amid talks with the government. In December nurses walked out for the first time in over 100 years, joining other unionised workers as high inflation erodes pay. Public opinion is split on the strikes, but a majority of people think the government’s handling of them has been poor.
隨著年輕醫生們投票罷工，英國的公衛部門準備迎接更多的工會行動。護士們原訂於三月初再次罷工，但在與政府的談判中擱置了。(去年) 12月，由於高通膨侵蝕了薪資，護士們在一百多年來首次罷工，加入了其他工會的行列。公眾輿論對罷工存在著分歧，但大多數人認為政府對罷工的處理不當。
America’s Supreme Court heard arguments in two cases that could potentially undermine the business model of social-media companies.

Hello MetaversePhillip Wang: Making the Metaverse Open and AccessiblePeople often conflate the idea of the Metaverse with VR experiences, and while VR can be one medium in which people experience the Metaverse, it is merely a subset.
