Tariff Freak Out: Why So Many People Cling To The Cancer Of Globalism

"This isn’t about Trump, so let’s set him aside for a moment. Instead, consider what globalism really is: A system which pretends to benefit humanity while quietly bleeding as much wealth as it can from the middle class. It then places that cash in the coffers of a tiny percentage of elites. Globalism is a wealth and property transfer machine.
The direct result is a historic wealth gap that has put 30% of all cash in the hands of 1% of the population. The bottom 50% of the populace holds a laughable 2.6% of global wealth, and the problem is only getting worse.
In terms of “free trade” and the supply chain, interdependency makes all nations weak by forcing them to rely on other countries for key resources and base necessities. They’ve set up a system which makes it hard to walk away. Freedom from globalism means isolation from preestablished supply chains.
For those that say tariffs are an attack on our allies and trading partners, this is foolish. First, a lot of these countries are NOT our allies. Europe in particular is becoming more totalitarian by the day, throwing people in jail for online speech and political opponents in jail for wanting to stop mass immigration. Why should we be allies or trading partners with people who would happily destroy every value we hold dear?"

Fact: In any growing society, DEFLATION is the norm. The cost to produce FOOD goes down over time, due to innovation. It's true across the board.
Banks, knowing this, invert this. they STEAL the difference between DEFLATION and the amount they inflate. The convert their FAKE dollars into REAL ASSETS (true wealth, or primary wealth).
Dollars are NOT wealth. They are a CLAIM on wealth. The phrase "dirt poor" comes from: they cannot even grow anything on their land, because it's DIRT and not soil.
Primary Wealth is actually have THINGS of value.
By tricking us away from those things, replacing them with USD (Casino Chips). That they are allowed to create as many as they want of...
We are enslaved. Then, with all of that wealth, STOLEN from the people. Others want to get in on it, so they devise EVER MROE systems of theft and enslavement.
Imagine asking someone to work for 50 years of their life, and SAVE for the last 20. While you control the FUTURE value of their savings? LOL.
Is it any wonder that Deaths of Despair are one of the leading killers of middle aged men? (Suicide by drugs, etc). Meanwhile, EVERY Decade or so, they crash the markets, steal the average persons investments. And proceed like it's all supposed to be this way. (And when they lose in the market, we are FORCED to bail them out because they threaten us)
