Midknight Review -- new and revised: The United States came to an agreement with China this week over the regulation of the opioid fentanyl,

The United States came to an agreement with China at the G-20 summit in Buenos Aires this week over the regulation of the opioid fentanyl, which is linked to thousands of overdoses in the United States.

China and the United States released individual statements regarding the bilateral agreement about the ongoing trade war between them, and both said they had found some common ground on further regulating the drug fentanyl.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry statement differed slightly, stopping short of announcing that it had fully changed the drug's designation or the penalties sellers might face. Instead,
the country remained somewhat vague, committing only to enforcing the laws around fentanyl and stating that it would examine how it managed the drug.

The agreement comes after President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping and their advisers met over dinner, Saturday evening, at the G-20 summit in Buenos Aires.

Ovredose deaths rose to 72,287 in 2017. More than 49,000 of those deaths involved opioids, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

Fentanyl, which is a "synthetic opioid" (i.e code for "man made crap") is extremely addictive and 80 to 100 times more powerful than morphine because tt is added to heroin to increase the drug's potency.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."

Also the losses from that and the dive yesterday which was about 800 points have wiped all out of the gains from the past year in the market altogether.
