Maybe Keith is overstating it when he says we're at war with China, but Trump's War of the Stoopid could be quietly widening - it sure as hell ain't exactly cooling down.
And this whole fucked up thing is proving one of the big assertions from the 90s. ie: Free trade keeps the peace.
We'll have to figure out how to keep the imperialists and mercantilists from using it as just another weapon in just a different kind of war, but if you have more goods flowing, you're going to have a lot fewer people shooting at each other.
War may be OK for the handful of companies that supply the bullets, beans and band aids, but war is definitely not good for the vast majority of people caught up in it, whether they're directly in the line of fire or simply trying to muddle through in an economy being crippled by it, just because a few stupid politicians either can't figure out how to stop it, or they're too busy looking for ways to profit from it.
So fuckin' sick of this stoopid fuckin' timeline.
