it's linked here. feels like Bush/Project for a New American Century.

his treasury secretary wrote this back in October too: https://archive.ph/IYXLe

seems like: crash the market, negotiate individually, new trade deals guaranteeing permanent/ongoing softening of the US Dollar.

i also appreciate all the user's providing analysis of what's going on other than "trump bad" or "trump insane." other than this site, the internet has mostly been a useless pile of shit this past week.

it's so fucked up because i genuinely think they want to bring manufacturing back because war. but like, if they bring manufacturing back no one wants to pay fair, livable wages so it's all automation.

so cool we brought manufacturing back but it's all machines.

and they don't care. i don't see how that shores up the american dollar and american work force if there's 24%+ real unemployed.

ffs i know this is radlib as all hell but 2016, 2020 why didn't bernie win?
