  • There’s two ways this works out.

    1. Trump’s regime doubles down, never backs out and holds firm.

    Basically, you’re fucked. Chinese goods stop flowing, medical devices and equipment stop coming, tools and utilities stop being restocked. You’re on your own. Welcome to Thunderdome.

    1. Trump’s regime keeps this going until the backlash forces them to give it up.

    Then we capitulate to China, end up paying more overall but not an impossibly high figure for our items and life goes on… only a little less swimmingly.

    My bet is on #1. Stock up on ammo and food, road warrior.


  • Which makes me sit back in my seat and go:

    “What is the endgame?”

    Our future, if unchanged is a reversion to right around industrialization, but without any industry.

    So we’re all to be imprisoned in the machine of capitalism, feet chained and bound into making wooden bowls and clothes we used to get cheaply but no longer can?

    But then, how do the elite profit from a country with no profit? Do they just sit on the hill and own it? Their world sounds depressing and devoid of any sort of enjoyment. Trump wants to be King Shit, on a hill of ashes.

    The sweatshop of America cometh.
