Both mmt and real austrian economists are both correct on certain points. The US needs to have their hands in the world, that’s what world powers do. Letting the world fester is, unfortunately, not a responsible approach.
The US debt is large, but compared to our peers we aren’t terrible. Russia’s is low but their economy is shockingly small, they just have a ton of nukes. Chinas isn’t as bad as the US, but they have an extremely large demographic problem. Their one child policy is going to destroy their country in 30 years.
Europe is lost for at least ten more years, probably 20.

And republicans/conservatives do? Trump has increased the debt more than anyone. It’s two sides of the same shitty coin brother.

I don't understand what they think they're doing. I remember when the Peso collapsed in Mexico, they issued the New Peso. The old Peso was worth one thousandth of the New Peso.
The City of Prichard's economy collapsed and after going to court the pensioners were awarded a dime on a dollar.

Just saw that. Our trillion dollar defense budget doesn't provide enough missiles and our Navy is sputtering out. Feels like the last gasps of a dying empire.
Idk if you could be any more of an anti American piece of shite to say something like this.

but there's no doubt, their cheap labor helps prop all this up.
No, it keeps Americans unemployed and on a wide array of federal benefits programs. The overwhelming majority of these invaders are a net liability to the federal government. If they weren’t here taking jobs and holding down wages, more Americans could be induced to work, through the prospect of loss of benefits if necessary. People just have no idea how much these invaders are costing us. It’s staggering.

All this, and no mention of the most pernicious and costly entitlements of them all: the unfunded Tax Cut For The Rich, 2017 Style, and the unfunded Tax Cut For The Rich Part Deux-- The Big, Beautiful Bill!
Trump ... has failed.
