Dear Fool,
The good times can last 15 to 20 years from the beginning of an ideology to the center point in time.
Right now we have a 15 to 20-year period of demand-side economics.
Marry up that thought with the idea that China as bad off as it is economically right now is happy.
Why is China happy?
Because the US is wasting 4 years not pursuing demand-side economics and leaving it to China to enjoy, China is gearing up to spend on internal demand and industry. We are failing to do so.
This four-year period should be a time of great building in the US. Instead, it is a time of failure.
The world is moving into a great depression led by Trump.
