Paul Checks in from Shanghai with a map of shipping world wide, live and in real time. It is pretty cool. A typhoon threatens the east coast of Taiwan, and there is no shipping there right now. Wow... Drill down by clicking on of the boxes with numbers in it. If the ships disappear, drill up one level and back down. It will refresh in real time. The bigger the number, the more the shipping.
Notice something else... poor countries, little shipping. Rich countries, much shipping. We just do not trade with poor people. Exploiting the poor through international trade is sheer nonsense. Exploitation of the poor is a local event, and such exploitation keeps the country too poor to engage in int'l trade.
