Amazing time.
We're watching a country who created a world of economic and alliances around itself, who benefits the most the wealth increase, now undoing it all ITSELF.

It's coming to an end.
The pie won't grow as much, or shrink, competition for a slice will be tougher.
Major bumps this year and coming ones.
And your kids & grand kids will have it a lot harder.

President Trump’s federal takeover of D.C.’s local police is unprecedented. “The last person who asserted the authority to use military personnel for routine law enforcement anywhere in the country for any reason was King George,” a legal scholar said.

USA decadence means not enough will care to fight its police state.
It is no longer a question of whether the USA is becoming a police state. It is now a police state. The only question is whether Americans care enough to try and fight the police state they are in.

The S&P 500 has fallen -4.5% on news of the tariffs.
Of course, markets had already priced in tariffs -- this is the response to how much worse they were than expected.
