L'Envie est la Semence du Mal – et la Racine de l'Argent. Dans le Quoran et le Livre d'Ézéchiel (28) de la Bible, la rébellion de "Shaytan" commença par l'envie – un désir d'usurper la gloire de Dieu. Cette même pulsion destructrice donna naissance à l'argent. Dieu avait pourvu l'humanité de tout le nécessaire pour une existence harmonieuse : nourriture provenant des plantes et des animaux, abris construits avec des matériaux naturels, eau des rivières, et vêtements en peaux animales. Le travail était simple – moissonner, chasser, bâtir – mais suffisant. Puis vint l'envie, et avec elle, la corruption de cet ordre divin. Comment l'Envie Inventa l'Argent Imaginez les premiers humains vivant en clans, vêtus de simples peaux animales. Parmi eux émergea un artisan habile, transformant des peaux brutes en vêtements exquis. Lorsque les autres virent ses créations, ils les convoitèrent – non par nécessité, mais par désir. Ce fut la naissance de...

Envy is the Seed of Evil—and the Root of Money. In the Quoran and in the Bible’s Book of Ezekiel (28), Shaytan’s rebellion began with envy—a desire to usurp God’s glory. This same destructive impulse birthed money.   God provided humanity with everything needed for a harmonious existence: food from plants and animals, shelter from natural materials, water from rivers, and clothing from animal skins. Work was simple—harvest, hunt, build—yet sufficient. But then came envy, and with it, the corruption of this divine order.   How Envy Invented Money  Imagine early humans living in clans, clad in basic animal hides. Among them, a skilled craftsman emerged, transforming rough skins into exquisite garments. When others saw his creations, they coveted them—not out of necessity, but desire. This was the birth of envy: the heart longing for what the eyes behold.   To acquire these superior clothes, people bartered—offering extra hides, tools, or labor. Thus, val...

The China–U.S. Trade War But this time, it’s not about tariffs... It’s about branding.   (The Revelation) China dropped a bomb: American brands produce goods in China for 1 euro... And sell them for 50 euros. Talk about markup. (The Snitch Move) Yes, China snitched. They revealed something that was never meant to go public. But all it did was highlight one thing: branding is power. (The Branding Truth) If I sell at 1000% profit, it's because my brand makes it worth it. Not where it's made, but who makes it — and how. (Look at Diamonds) Diamonds come from Africa: Zimbabwe, Lesotho, DRC... But once refined and cut? They're sold for millions. It’s the artistry that creates value. (Quality > Location) It doesn't matter if my clothes are made in China, Mexico, or Africa. If the quality and vision stay high, the brand holds strong. (New Manufacturing Future?) Imagine bespoke suits made in 1 week... Does it matter if it’s not made in China anymore? Africa, Latin...

China and the United States: An Economic Duel with Global Stakes. China began its revolutionary transformation in 1966 under the leadership of Mao Zedong. Though this process came at a tremendous human cost, its effects materialized two decades later, propelling the Middle Kingdom to its current status as the world’s leading economic power. Now, under the impetus of Donald Trump, the United States seems to be embarking on its own revolution—one marked by a shift toward protectionism and potential isolationism. Yet, faced with today’s geo-economic challenges—notably the declared trade war against China—the U.S. must modernize the very foundation of China’s success: its infrastructure. However, infrastructure isn’t built overnight—unless Elon Musk has unlocked the secret to the construction of Egyptian pyramids... Is the Trump administration playing with fire? Certainly not. The American president relies on the expertise of top industrial leaders (Elon Musk is the greatest bu...

La Chine et les États-Unis: un duel économique aux enjeux planétaires. La Chine initia sa mue révolutionnaire en 1966 sous l’égide de Mao Tsé-toung. Bien que ce processus ait engendré un lourd tribut humain, ses effets se concrétisèrent deux décennies plus tard, propulsant aujourd’hui l’Empire du Milieu au rang de première puissance économique mondiale.   À présent, les États-Unis, sous l’impulsion de Donald Trump, semblent engager leur propre révolution, marquée par un virage protectionniste et un isolationnisme potentiel. Toutefois, face aux défis géoéconomiques contemporains – notamment la guerre commerciale déclarée contre la Chine –, la nation américaine se doit de moderniser ses infrastructures, pilier de la réussite chinoise.   Or, les infrastructures ne s’érigent pas en un clin d’œil, à moins que Elon Musk n’ait percé le secret de la construction des pyramides égyptiennes…   L’administration Trump joue-t-elle avec le feu?   Ass...
