I think America is truly ready for some protectionism.

We’re all growing very tired, of being the world’s chumps on trade.

Just saying.

“Trump’s planned tax cuts [yes], infrastructure spending [no] and regulatory reform [yes].”

Two sound good, but I’ll pass on another trillion dollar stimulus.

Americans do not care about “growth”. Only the elites, bankers, and speculators care about that metric.

I’m not an economist, but I surmised long ago that a “growing” economy simply means the increase of debt. Bankers and elites benefit from increased debt, not the common man.

Yahoo thinks we should want what is best for the elites.

I say screw ‘em.
