To elucidate; No more war for open borders or free trade rape of our nation. No more half wars and death as theatrics followed by capitulation either.
(Of course we knew).
Bonds are DEBTS our already long suffering, degraded and preyed on people pay $1.25 Trillion dollars annually in usury extracted by taxes and mostly inflation.
Bonds benefits do not benefit a wide enough spectrum of the nation to warrant any more return to the comfort zone of the past.
Does “Fuck this, this is not what we fought for” said in hushed but vehement tones between lethal men get the message across?
Many such instances, zero cases. None would correct the tone or words.
It was if we fought to slowly destroy and degrade, extract our own people, as if we were a colony to be plundered.
Bonds are used as payoffs by the political class and collateral for gambling by the Financial class. We come home to regional depression- see Rust Belt for a great example- and to see our neighbors under bridges or barely surviving.
Factories replaced by Fentanyl, communities by foreign criminals running amok with license to prey on Americans.
NO.
Especially now that the alternative is being at last enjoined into policy and our factories rise again.
If Trump negotiates hard nosed deals foreign and yes domestic then that’s what he was elected to do and we all see him doing.
You are making this Right Winger and others form common cause with genuine American nationalist avowed Marxists. From common plight, patriotism and exhaustion you are driving the nation towards…?
The end of history?
That’s one way to look at it. If you don’t like nationalism or MAGA, what are you going to do with Horseshoe 🧲 Left/Right Nationalism?
That by the way is a very common outlook expressed aloud or not among young people especially young men. It’s increasingly common across the West. Its common in ISRAEL, which isn’t normally predisposed towards such sentiments.
The 90s are over, we’re not going to tweak - or fight, suffer, die - to put the wavy lines back to the Boomers comfort zone. Twas too uncomfortable for everyone else and remains so…
I hope this clarifies.
Now pray the man succeeds in getting us back on our feet before we start marching.
Always a pleasure to hear your perspective, thank you! And fair point. My focus here is less (to none) on the politics and more on the underlying structural constraints. Those tend to assert themselves regardless of the direction chosen. Trying to rebuild industrial strength while the system is being hit by energy shocks and creditor fragility may prove far less smooth than many expect!
The world has changed.
Bond market?
The 90s are over and Uber War only has 1 client 🇺🇸.
Trump isn’t Clinton, the Bushes or Obama.
