Wonder how this will affect the field of Economics.
This essentially upended about a century worth of American Economic thought and standard operating procedure. Essentially overnight. And if it works as we expect it too and as advertised. Then there will be endless amounts of Cope and Seethe.
Wasn't south korea taking a hard left turn?
Yes
They have 130 amendments to whatever they have.
It’s more like a Metronome. They shift from Right to Left like a Bipolar.
And both spend their time in office undoing the others work and trying to persecute the previous administration.
It’s why like 6 of their last 7 presidents is either actively in prison. Served a Prison Sentence they have since completed. And or was executed.
Glad we spent so much money and blood giving them freedom (sarc)
To be fair. The Nationwide Bipolar disorder. Is in part because they embraced Western/American Style politics. With a readiness and eagerness that even we failed to match. And we invented some of the ideas.
Religious Cults also wield a disturbing amount of influence there. Even among the non-religious.
One of them. Actually briefly controlled the Presidents Office in South Korea relatively recently. I believe it was something like “The Cult of 8 Goddeses” or something to that effect. But essentially it was 8 South Korean Female Billionaires that controlled the Presidency and decided policy and appointments. That cult was in of itself the offshoot of some vaguely Presbyterian Cult that cropped up in the 70s.
Huge stink about it around 2016. That resulted in the arrest of the current president at the time.
To be fair to us, did they also adopt our constitution with its first 10 amendments?
It's not like Trump hasn't been saying for some time he was going to do tariffs, seems odd they are only now meeting about it.
Should show everyone that China or BRICS stand no chance. We are the consumer of the world. Wego down, every economy goes down. Only things that will remain are areas that never modernized.
We the People or rather We the Customer have power!
