Trump's Second Term: Implications for America and Investors In a recent analysis by Doug Casey on LewRockwell.com, the potential impacts of Donald Trump's second term on both the American landscape and the investment community are explored with keen insight. As we stand at the threshold of a new presidential term, understanding these implications is crucial. For America:Cultural Conservatism: Casey suggests that Trump's presidency could bring a return to traditional American values, potentially slowing down the cultural shifts we've seen in recent years. Regulation Rollback: A significant push towards deregulation is anticipated, which could stimulate economic activity but also requires careful navigation of market dynamics. For Investors:Monetary Policy: Despite his economic stance, Trump's history as a "low-interest rate guy" hints at continued policies that might keep inflation in check but could also mean higher deficits. Taxation: The idea of revisiting taxation policies, especially for expatriates, is floated. While beneficial if implemented, Casey remains skeptical about the feasibility due to the fiscal state of the U.S. Key Takeaways:Watch for Policy Changes: Investors should keep an eye on regulatory environments and fiscal policy adjustments which could reshape market conditions. Economic Philosophy: The approach to economics in Trump's second term might not shift significantly, focusing on growth through reduced regulations rather than fiscal conservatism. The full article provides a deep dive into these aspects, offering a perspective that encourages both optimism for economic freedom and caution regarding fiscal responsibility.

In his latest guest essay for The New York Times, Bureau expert and Columbia Law School Professor Tim Wu discusses the long-term dissatisfaction among Americans surrounding the economy and the Biden administration's bold approach to addressing it. Wu argues that conventional economic strategies of tax and transfer or tax cuts have failed to address the structural issues causing discontent. Americans want a fundamentally different and fair economy. Through policies that prioritize the predistribution of wealth, competition, and the well-being of the average American consumer, the Biden administration is doing just that—making the economy fairer and more productive. The challenge is communicating this message to voters, contrasting the economy Biden is striving to create with the centralized, unbalanced economic system that exists today. By framing his economic agenda as a fight against today’s toxic form of capitalism, the administration has an opportunity to enact fundamental economic change. Read more ?? https://bit.ly/3VznIXt

Harris likes to fall back on the old "Sixteen Nobel Laureates in economics yada, yada, yada" but I encourage every reader and especially the Harrisites to read these documents. If you see the words "could" or "maybe" or "might" or "would" you are not reading a research paper. Instead, you are reading an opinion editorial. Yes, even the Ivy League has teamed up to misquote and purposely confound us by calling an "opportunity cost" a "tax." A tax is a law that requires a sum be paid by participants in the US social system. Per the 16th Amendment, the congress has unlimited capacity to tax you and me however much they want and for whatever reason. Usually there is no reason other than to pay the legal bills incurred by the US. When congress then approves an appropriation, that is an IOU payable by the People via the US Treasury. The IRA that Harris so proudly passed is a tax. It has yet to create a single job but has obligated the US (heavy on the YOU) to $1.5 trillion. The benefits of this enormous debt are dubious and impossible to quantify unless one is willing, like these 16 Nobel laureates, to go way down the rabbit hole. A tariff is an opportunity cost that is traded to make dealings between two international partners more favorable. The mere threat of action can have substantial impacts. Go too far, go to war. Don't do anything, and get played over-and-over by the trading partner (see mainland China). Often, paid researchers like the Ivy academics slant their findings based on the agenda of the research partner. In this case, the Democratic campaign. What one will certainly find is that Trump is bad for the economy, some number, and some certainty that consumers will suffer up to that number. What you will not find is any mention of the opportunity gained, as in foreign companies bringing their manufacturing to the US because of tariffs and lower rate of taxation. These are indisputable and yet unconsidered by the Ivies. The Ivies, well, they are, at the end of the day, just throwing in their two-cents worth; and, we all know that opinions are like assholes, these are everywhere. Remember, the business of the US is business. And the purpose of a business is to build shareholder wealth (heavy on the US).
