Ah I stand corrected
America is a semi-fascist economy. A lot of Trump's deals with foreign countries have intimately involved US companies, and he's in no way unique in that regard.
Where is the fascism? All I can see are corporations groveling to curry favor with the current government. Many of them did it for the previous administration so they'll do it for this one to.
Lol, I shouldn't have used that word, I can barely even define it incorrectly. What I'm getting at is the US government integrates corporations into its governance structure, sometimes giving it powers it could not easily get legally; think something like letters to tech companies directing them on what to censor. This simultaneously gives corporations the ability to wield their own influence to shape American governance.
I think the best way to describe that dynamic that would be cronyism.
Doug Burgum as Secretary of the Interior was such a sleeper appointment.
That is unironically a correct defi itinerary of facism. The state and private business working together at the states discretion to benefit the public. There is a reason it was popular prior to the holocaust. And why it has be redefined to just be about nazis.
Badman and Fatpacks back-to-back looks like John is about to eat that burger.
Which is why I don't care that Tesla benefits from it when Google and Facebook got their special treatment.
Fascism showed it was not against the establishment of business cartels as long as it serves the state but that is not a characteristic it exclusively has compared to other governments. The state of the USA is still too weak by its standards, there is no national labor organization and not enough central planning.
Makes me think. Japan should evict everyone off one of the RyuKyu islands or wherever, set up a nuclear plant there and become the worlds dumping ground for waste, processing everything valuable out of it for raw materials and then passing them on to Japanese manufacturers. I bet the Japanese could figure out an efficient way to do this and reap a shitload of money. Paid to take the waste, paying to process it, having a huge amount of common anjd rare elements at their disposal, and then profiting Japanese industry with the resultant products.
Taking another countries trash is 3 rd world shit.
Considering the size difference and the history of pan-Asian endeavors there is a good chance that will end with China trying to boss everyone around.
apparently India is taking a hit too and the uk is expected to get a hit as well.
That’s why I see Japan and the US being buddies. The one thing Japan wanted during wwii was natural resources and the us has that. They can get everything they want in trade with the US without having to conquer anything. In return the us gets anime and waifus.
Wait until we see what happens with the US market before declaring victory.
The US market will endure better by its very nature as an import economy. China can't weather the massive hit to its largest buyer like we can.
While people are losing their shit over things that are not impacting them currently, I'll kek if that post becomes somehow true.
