Other than the Ukraine/Nuclear War cheerleaders, I think most here will be happy, if this is actually true.

Maybe now that sob Fink will stop bidding up housing prices in some markets to the extent that young families can no longer afford them

Economic trends are often cyclic in nature.

One of our relatively new neighbors since the Covid Pandemic is a property manager of large chunks of property abandoned by the government (local and National). Like former military bases being retrofitted for today’s and tomorrow’s financial world. He said that even parts of Detroit are being retroed.

He said that is part of America’s history/tradition.

Hell, I’m entirely for Ukraine putting a massive hurt on Putin and Russia (yeah, yeah, Soros, Hunter, etc., doesn’t change the fact that Russia needs to be put down like a sick puppy and sent back to the 12th century where they belong, even if Putin is less hostile to Christianity than most Dems) and regard Russia as every bit as much my existential enemy today, right now, as they ever were during the cold war.

But anything that hurts the slave-labor globalists is good. I dread inflation, being nearly retired, but if not one single piece of cheap Chinese crap ever came inside these borders, nor even a pen or valve-stem cover were made by anyone earning less than the minimum wage in this country, I’d take it in a heartbeat.

Globalism is the ultimate perversion of capitalism, to where everything is made at the cheapest cost even if that means it’s made with what is essentially slave labor and without out regard to environmental degradation. US workers should not have to compete with Chinese slaves.

Trump was right, just not extreme enough, we need to tariff the HELL out of anything made anywhere where people are paid less than the best wages Americans make for the same function.

Globalism is a race to the bottom, good riddance.

What a stupid comment.
