panThis book is way too long (23 hrs audio) and the extensive historical contexts are unnecessary to me. I would like to hear a more succinct version where I could focus more on the actual “laws”. The book also has a very spiteful theme, as if everyone is out to get others in their pursuits for power, however, it did give me perspective of how some may think. If I hadn‘t put this on audio for my commute to work book, I never would have finished it.

Pulling direct aid from the developing world, especially in the cruel and abrupt way we did so, opens up a huge space for China to swoop in. But we “need Ukraine‘s minerals” to combat China.
Then we humiliate Zelenskyy in the WH.*
