Long term I think this may be good for the 95% of us non-Americans. It’s forcing us out of a cozy minima, building new supply chains and trading partners. All while everyone is eager to find someone else to buy and sell to, which makes it easier. Maybe it’ll be a net positive for the world as long as he doesn’t destroy the world in the process.
In a way this represents a redistribution of wealth away from the rich, which is what I think a lot of people want (though maybe they’d wish it wasn’t away from them)
- dh2022 2y agoI do not get how this is a redistribution of wealth away from the rich (rich spend a very small percentage of their income, middle class and poor people spend almost all of their income on necessities and maybe a bit of fun, so at the end of the day rich will come ahead)
- EasyMark 2y agoThis does none of that. The rich will only get richer, that is the trajectory, until there is a civil war. In the meantime this is only going to hurt the middle class on down and they will finally come to realize their orange "benefactor" is actually a stooge for powers much smarter than him who want to see the USA and democracy utterly fail.
