One day, after owning it a couple of months the phone updated itself. After the update, the phone would no longer boot up. I contacted Straight Talk and the agent talked me through some steps to try to fix the phone, but all to no avail. Finally the agent told me to send the phone back to them for a replacement.
Autarky is the quality of being self-sufficient. Usually the term is applied to political states or their economic systems. Autarky exists whenever an entity can survive or continue its activities without external assistance or international trade. If a self-sufficient economy also refuses all trade with the outside world then it is called a closed economy.
Autarky and Hitler. Hitler pursued a policy of autarky. It was his ambition to make Germany self sufficient. However, this policy of autarky was dependent on his other policy of lebensraum which involved increasing the size of Germany through conquest. In practice Hitler never achieved autarky and depended on the import of oil, even though Germany did expand to include all occupied territories.
