Agreed, this is the most likely outcome in the short term.

In the long term there are going to be unexpeted knock-on effects. Even a modest definancialization of the American economy makes it more robust to demographic changes and the end of the population-driven growth era. Lowered imports from abroad (especially china) and decreased consumption writ large means lower carbon footprint. Maintenance of airplanes getting more expensive means people fly less (already happening), again, lower carbon footprint.



You sure like whats happening now to keep making up excuses for why its actually good, all over this thread.


theres a lot to hate about this administration right now.
