The role for government in capitalism is NOT deciding who the winners are. And it’s especially not tying to a loser and trying to make them the winners. The fact is Intel is behind the curve. And has been for ages. They were late to the 32-bit party, they were late to the 64-bit party, they were late to the GPU party, their chips are underpowered and overpriced. They’re just not a good company. Any plan that revolves around protecting Intel from themselves is a stupid plan.

that is all in your mind and not related to this incident.

We already have fascism where govt is owned by private and controlled by govt. Name me one area of private enterprise where govt has not intervened with regulation or law.

Trumps plan here is fresh air. This is a new way.

I suggest you read this book. We are fully under state control of business already. They is no more room to move in that direction. We are living Germany in the late 30’s.

It may be hard for you to understand but Trumps move is TOWARD CAPITALISM. A partnership, in growth.

If government is a partner in capitalism and he can get legislature to think like business, we can point to the effects of legislation, at least change the disconnect between govt and business. There is now a public measure and association with business and legislation.

When stocks changes, we can point to government as source of problem. We need a linkage between govt and business.

We can’t get any deeper in fascism than we are now. This is the way out.
