    Yeah and they are getting to a point where there isn’t much growth to be had.

    Which is why I think he wants Venezuela and Greenland, I honestly think the US is kind of broke.

    If that keeps the party going, then unfortunately some will keep investing.

    Hence why it’s actually critical not to just give him Greenland, making it hard will have an impact.

      All of this is dead on. I hope one day the US can regain the worlds trust, but I don’t expect it in my lifetime.

        I kinda hope they dissolve and something more reasonable forms from their ashes. They are too big and with too much military and economic power concentrated in one spot.

        I’m surprised anyone trusted the USA after it broke the Bretton Woods agreement, said it was temporary, and then adopted a post-hoc Keynesian rationale.
