    Old capitalist method: use your connections with politicians to force the solution that makes you profitable.

  3. The guy was nearly crying on the call. He is heavy long, and this is a hail mary to save him. He did the math. Every company in his portfolio can only survive for one month as he said.

    The whole thing was a disgrace

    No, America will go on. The globalists and the billionaire deep long hedge fund managers will burn down in spectacular flames though. The people pushing for global economies and everyone who turned America into a import only country must be hiding in their bunkers. I bet we will see a huge resurgence is American made goods and services after this.
