My only thoughts: It was going to burn down eventually. Best to do it on our own timeline with some semblance of a plan. While I don't think everything has been anywhere close to managed effectively in regards to massive cuts, I think it was the necessary shock to attempt to get the country back on track. All media talks about is tariffs we're imposing, no mention of the tariffs that were already imposed on us for a long time. It's going to be ugly but in the end I think it's necessary. Nobody is going to change anyone's thoughts on the internet. Just come here to see somewhat opposing viewpoints of mine. Sadly some of the opposing viewpoints have left and it's a bit of a chamber but

Negatory: words… Plenty of policy discussions have happened in this forum. Nothing off limits … from international relations (trade, agreements, diplomatic ties, etc), insane gov spending, the Fed Reserve, fiscal policy, social policy, education, and plenty more have been discussed. How do you not consider the offspring and future of our country not a policy issue. Between government (academia, grants, research funding) indoctrinating everyone to be homos (can’t procreate) and/or tranies (destroy themselves) we’ll end our nation (no birth rate). Add to that our welfare system rewarding fatherless families, we’re doubling down to ensure our downfall. Social policy matters and encouraging rational sane policies supporting and fostering strong traditional families is important if we want our nation to survive.

This forum gets very quiet about real policies, which is why they love to talk about things like trans rights and abortion. It’s going to be a struggle for folks to justify the essentially manufactured economic austerity that is emerging all while slashing taxes for the wealthy and adding to the deficit. But, with the power of echo chamber news, they’ll find a way to believe that this is good.

this is the most important dibs of my life.
