So, really, according to Jacob Rees Mogg if you're critical of Trump, if you're not pro-Trump, you're part of the MSM and therefore you should be discounted? #newsnight
@DesmondWard1000 Yep, he did say it's ageism, which I suppose it is... But it's all money and it needs to be prioritised. Still, was a thought provoking interview.
@RaminYazdi@Natie2Natie@EdKrassen I'm not ideologically opposed to rebalancing the world economy, the West has far too long farmed out the benefits of its citizens for the few % at the top... But economic shock and awe isn't the way to go. Even MAGAs have pensions. MAGAs will retire...
@RaminYazdi@Natie2Natie@EdKrassen So what do you think happened to prices?
And as much as I love the US I don't see it scaling up to be able to cope with the demand for goods that would in theory become economically unviable under 100% tariffs. At least not in 4yrs, let alone in 18 months for the midterms
@BabeTruth2@cbeckj@tanvi_ratna gets better.
It reminds me of a friend who bailed on his apt in 09. The bank foreclosed and it was eventually sold for circa $50k. Today that apt is worth over $350k.
@BabeTruth2@cbeckj@tanvi_ratna dip will see money moving up... simply because people with wealth can ride out the storm without it really materially changing their lives. These tariffs will absolutely hit the working and hollowed out middle classes the hardest, simply because they might have to fold before it
@JamesBo63498520@GreenleeGazette@Acyn You are so beyond naΓ―ve. I work with the elites that you have in mind. They are overseeing a huge transfer of wealth right now, from the working and hollowed out middle classes, going straight up to those said elites. These people are infinitely smarter than JamesBo63498520.
I may be older at 48, but I'm educated and I can smash the fitness targets for the majority of the trades in the military. Times change. Increase the age. @JohnHealey_MP
