More inflation? I don't want more inflation. image
Will businesses now move manufacturing to the U.S.? Pro-tariff people are an automatic "yes." I don't know either way. But I do know that the U.S. is still a big mess financially and politically. In a few years we can have a President Harris, or President AOC. We can return right back into leftist insanity. Do businesses really want to have their assets here under those conditions? I don't know. I guess we'll see.
The money "put in" has been spent by the government. Warren is right. Social Security is not a charity. It's a Ponzi scheme. image
A tariff is a tax. Prices can rise as a result. But it’s not inflation. Inflation is an increase in the money supply. Tariffs do not increase the money supply. image
Our decline coincides with Empire. The first "police action" was Korea ... and it has been an endless list of stupidity ever since. The Empire must go. If it doesn't, neither tariffs, nor DOGE, nor anything else will save us. image
While I’m a skeptic, I’ll leave open the possibility that the tariffs β€œwork.” But if they don’t work, and everything goes to shi*t, do you know what presidents often do to cover up their economic mess? It begins with a β€œW” and ends in an β€œR.”
The "Golden Age" of continued government growth. Don't fret...It's "liberation day". image
The original liberation in 1776 was in opposition to taxation. "Liberation" in 2025 is the imposition of taxation. image
When members of government follow the Constitution, there is nothing to buy. (See the Congressional career of Ron Paul). But our members of government do not follow the Constitution. Want a special (unconstitutional) privilege? It's going to cost you. Special interests like this because they can buy special privileges. Politicians like it because they can sell special privileges. image
