The marxist wench will be up to her jowls in kobe beef and caviar regardless of whatever happens to the “little people.”

As for the economy, I dare say its probably doing better than the economic indicators are showing because so much of the economy has moved over to the black market under dear leaders reign.

Exactly, zero interest rates are but another example of how the regime rigs the game to protect the child in the White House. Forget the long term harm that the current monetary policies pose, so lot as the child is made to look good.

Just watched the SF Fed banker giving his happy talk. Employment up, wages soon to follow. Interest rate hike soon, economy growing, all is good, happy happy happy.
In a word, BS

The only thing missing from this unfolding corporatist (i.e. neofeudalist) economy is serfs. Sure, we are making formerly middle class families into serfs by limiting economic opportunity, promoting indebtedness, driving up the cost of college, and valorizing intellectual over physical accomplishment. But this won’t produce enough serfs.

These serfs now come in the form of marginally attached labor - whether it be by agency/contract labor, guest workers, illegals, or other pliant individuals. It is easier to control someone when their livelihood can be held over them by short-term contract or threat of deportation. Such serfdom receives additional justification by being called "more competitive" - even when it reduces freedom.

Yellin isn’t trapped in a nightmare.
WE are trapped in a nightmare.

We need a database stored on a server offshore, with liberal politicians, advisors, and media helpers and hollywood cheerleaders names, pictures, titles, agency, car model, year, color, plates, and especially home addresses. Easily accessable read only through tor. Because we need to prepare now to hold them accountable. Suddenly and soon.

Love it!

When you keep kicking the can down the road, eventually the can falls apart at some point.

How would giving people cash, or cutting taxes, reduce the 20 Trillion in debt?

I’m wondering about the effect of Trump (if he gets elected) imposing a “dedicated reduce the debt tax” of say 2% on every big ticket item imported into the U.S. In effect, Japan and China would then be paying themselves back.

Then, do the same with sales. Meaning impose a National “dedicated reduce the debt tax” of 1% on all sales in the US except groceries and prescriptions.

Then, all the foregoing only be done in tandem with:

1. Eliminating, as in closing completely, several major departments of government.
2. Constitutional Ammendment for balanced budget.
3. Term limits.
4. Judiciary reform.
5. Flat tax.
6. Former federal legislators being barred from EVER becoming lobbyists.

These six are just a sampling. There are many others.

At some point, the ONLY cure for what ails us is a balanced budget each year and putting the existing debt on a downward curve.

To accomplish the foregoing will take a massive re-education of the 47% that put this bastard in office........twice.
