Tfw you explicitly warned against standing armies and foreign entanglements..

I appreciate that Rowling is willing to be a voice on this issue but she doesn't understand who is on her side.

Blaming "men" is naive at best.

Women are some of the most vocal proponents of this stuff, and on that side is not a nuanced argument about "what's the harm?" They just call you a bigot if you don't like the cultural Marxism.

Nothing on that list about the Vegas massacre, etc.

"Curing a madman is not arguing with a philosopher; it is casting out a devil."

GK Chesterton

If the hysteria surrounding a speculative market can crash your economy, maybe that market is too tightly integrated into your economy.

If your retirement is at risk because of stock market events maybe you're gambling too much with your nest egg.

Maybe the stock market should be treated as an investment with inherent risk, and not as a guiding star for corporate strategy, and national policy.

> there's many other things he could be doing

He is.

What would you recommend to encourage American industry?

> on these tariffs, they are not being done in a smart or careful way

The system loves "smart and careful" so they can get their tentacles around it before anything happens.

How can an investment go down in value? This is not what I was promised when buying heckin stockerinos

Enact policies to try and improve things somewhat for Americans.

Stock market doesn't like that.

..hmmm..

It's deeper than a politician. The court convicted her based on existing law.

Everything is downstream from culture.

Looks about right

Trump is pushing back against longstanding one sided unfair tarrifs.

The experts are noting this is bad for the economy.

Trump:

"if you extort American businesses, we're going to extort your businesses at the same rate."

Very smart people:

"You can't stop the extortion. It will be bad for the economy."

Well, if it makes you feel better, economics are usually the trigger of wars

What score?

Romney led directly to Trump.

Republican voters just threw their hands in the air and voted for the rich guy from New York after the GOP tried to give them Jeb Bush after trying Romney.
