A vaccine is the only thing that stopped the white plague. It caused between 1 in 4 and 1 in 7 deaths, just in US and Europe. Is it counterintuitive to just let TB come back? It's killed over 1 billion people. Even with a vaccine, it kills over a million people a year in the poorest countries.

I know. That's not how intuitive logic works. When vaccines (or any public health measure generally) work things don't happen. How they work and why is not visible, nor does it align w "common sense." People take it for granted and it doesn't take many people opting out to trash herd immunity.

I’m constantly reminded of the old Daffy Duck bit where he’s being warned about taking the gold. “Consequences, consequences, as long as I’ve got my gold.”

I love the language. Everything's big, great, very quickly, a very bad guy, very nice guy, etc. The apparent inability to speak specifically, provide data or facts or even speak logically. Very quickly means specifically what. A second? A day? A year?

Yes. We are still waiting for the first country that was taxed into prosperity.

More to come. Where I am at, we are looking at a shear cliff in order volume about 3 weeks out. Blanket orders have been fulfilled and are not being renewed. We are B2B manufacturing across a very broad section of American manufacturing. No orders for us means no orders are happening for anyone else

Private equity pulling back, because why buy now? (March 2025) when you can buy up a a struggling business for even cheaper (March 2026) Won't it be great to have an irresponsive Gov't and also 2 mega corps running everything?! Silicon Valley thrives in a dystopian future!

Gee. What every sane economist in the country said would happen with mass deportations and tariffs is happening, but a dotard is STILL allowed to destroy what WAS the best post COVID economy on the planet. In six months, inflation up, jobs down, prices soaring, and the WORST of it is yet to come.

And yet we're not seeing pitchforks and torches from these business owners and industries. Am I missing it? Doesn't it seem awfully quiet since business leaders typically scream their fool heads off every time they have to meet a regulation or pay for something? WTF?

Depends on who is reaping the rewards of the sweeping tariffs. Where exactly is this money going, and who is in charge of the tarrif revenue?
aug 7, 2025, 2:54 pm • 1 1 • view
Rewards? You realize it’s a huge transfer of wealth from importers (US companies) and customers (US) to government coffers which is not going to be used to reduce the overall deficit or ‘balance the books’. No foreign country or business is paying these tariffs. You are - if you can afford it.

Exactly! $Trump doesn't call it "The Golden Age" for no reason. There is no accountability for this massive transfer of upwards wealth. So, who is reaping the rewards of the sweeping tariffs? $Trump's empire is.
