PATH OF DESTRUCTION, or CONSTRUCTION
As AOC and Bernie Sanders traveled around the country to entice college students into Socialism, I wondered if the students actually understood what they were fighting for. I wondered if their parents could explain the virtues of Capitalism, as opposed to Communism or Socialism.
It is hard to understand President Trump’s ideas, like shrinking the size of government and that more workers doesn’t always mean increased value for the government. Sometimes, more means “redundant” and “wasteful”. Spending more money doesn’t necessarily mean “efficiency”, sometimes it means “corruption”. Tariffs levels the playing field. If another country can sell to Americans, we should be able to sell to citizens of that country..
Liberation Day has come and it has gone. It looks like the only ones that are crying are the so-called experts that have been wrong in every policy that they ever created. I remember when I was a mortgage broker in the early 2000s. We screamed, “Don’t send our jobs overseas! If you do, the people will not be able to pay their mortgages!!”
I was called every name you can think of including a “conspiracy theorist”. I was told I didn’t know what I was talking about and America was going to be the greatest service country in the world! I said, “If we lose our manufacturing base, we have to rely on others to take care of us! If we rely on other countries to produce our goods, we become slaves to other countries.” We saw that during Covid as they took care of their countries first. We had to beg for meds.
What services do people without jobs need?
They need services that come from the government. Therefore, the government will continue to grow and grow and the taxes collected will NEVER be enough! To everyone’s surprise, Karen was right. Could it be because of 2 things? I learned critical thinking skills in school; and, it is proven and logical that people without jobs cannot pay mortgages!
What did the Bush administration do? They put out propaganda saying that bad people like you and I could not pay our mortgages because we bought houses that were too expensive! We are living beyond our means. What a lie.
For none are so blind as those who cannot see that America has been on a Path of Destruction. What kept America afloat during those years? Why, war, of course! War needs products that America is able to produce. Those wars made the manufacturers and their investors very RICH.
Let’s not forget the Greenies who were able to regulate our industries. Today, we learn that there is not one country that has successfully adopted Green Energy strategies. Cheap coal and fossil fuel, of which America has an abundance of, became overly expensive driving the cost of goods up. Bringing fuel prices down reduces inflation.
Too many Americans do not understand tariffs or Capitalism. Why? Because it is no longer taught in schools! For this reason, we made it easy for Communist Democrats to instill fear upon the American people instead of teaching preparation. It is up to you, the adults to make sure America’s children can read, write, do simple math and understand civics. Just because President Trump closed the department of Education and gave it back to the states your job is done. No our job is beginning. The sates can often be as corrupt as the federal government.
Although you are probably only hearing about the tariffs going into effect, President Trump’s economic plan is multifaceted. It encompasses tariffs, tax cuts, regulation cuts, companies coming back to America creating jobs, and “drill baby drill”. All of these policies are designed to make America wealthy again. It will take time do this. Do not panic… prepare.
We all know that when a new policy comes into play and it is implemented, it takes time for it to work through the system and stabilize. Tariffs become the new bogeyman, and the Left tries to scare you into thinking prices will go up indefinitely , as an attack on you.
When new industries come online, prices will come back down. What they never say is that it takes TIME. We must be prepared and we must prepare our children. It is for that reason that I asked Andy Bernstein, who wrote a book called The Capitalist Manifesto, to be the guest this week and explain Capitalism in a way that you can understand what it means and how you can prepare, You want to come out whole and successful on the other side.
Thank you President Trump for the courage for doing a 180 on America’s destructive path and constructing a winning economy. Hear! Hear!
