    They are the ones already owning the companies. It's not like the middle class had much of the ownership lol

    "The bottom 90% of Americans own approximately 7% to 11% of all stocks. This highlights the significant concentration of stock ownership among the wealthiest individuals in the U.S. ."

    Trump is hurting the rich. Which is hilarious because it's not like he has anyone else's interests in mind ahahaha

    Oh yeah, his top buddy Putin

    The wealthy can always try to own more.

    Each time this happens, it’s another transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top.

    The top takes more, and the bottom has to fight amongst themselves for a smaller and smaller piece of the pie.

        Yet another thing that is beyond our willfully ignorant American Republican's comprehension.

        Adults cooperate with others who are open to mutually beneficial cooperation. Babies (and largely seniors past 70 as we become very similar to our sunrise at the sunset of life) kick and scream demanding to get their way the way they want it.

        I'm a 40 year old manchild who collects movie props and even I know that.

        Please don’t include all seniors. While I can’t speak for all seniors, I am very much from a generation that took to the streets fighting against social injustice. PLEASE don’t generation shame/blame. It’s just another divide and conquer tactic.

          Isn't trump the one actually pushing economic harm to the US? Maybe he should look into that.

                do it, cunt. the US relies on the EU and its neighbors way more than they rely on the US. you don't even make shit anymore, and whatever you do make isn't up to standards anyway. no one needs the US.

                The only thing the US exports is tax avoiding, minimum viable product supplying, data collection companies.

                Not only does the rest of the world not need that shit, they're better off without it.

                Fuck the US and everything it has come to stand for.

                  The US is not the only purchasing country numbnuts. He seems to think it's the 1950s when it was (essentially) only the US with purchasing power. Companies will just try to sell internationally.

                  Not surprising, seeing as how the entire party is based around a violently enforced sitcom-esque vision of an eternal 1950's.

                              It would be sweet if we could create some trade/ military alliance similar to the EU between the ol' Commonwealth gang.

                                Why for the EU?

                                It's much easier to produce military hardware than to set up a large trading network.

                                Remember, we only need to have enough to decisively stop the Russia. We don't need to become another US military power.

                                Because it never stops at just stopping the enemy, the allies could have simply contained Nazi Germany but chose to invade. The US could have continued the war in the Pacific but chose to drop 2 atomic bombs.

                                Beating the enemy so thoroughly is the only way humans have ever been able to truly end a conflict of that scale, and in that situation if Europe is to beat Russia like that I don't believe they'd hesitate to start launching nukes.

                                So we're stuck in a situation where Europe either risk nuclear war, or an extended border skirmish that could last decades. Both would be devastating

                                    Yes, he's creating chaos so that robber barons can capitalize on it to grow their own wealth at the cost of everyone else's

                                    He's destroying international relationships to remove US superpower status, to give more regional hegemony to Russia and China (probably just Russia, China gets it for free).

                                    And he's displacing the US dollar as the global currency. Contributes to the first two items and has long term effects on their global hegemony.

                                      I really don't think that's how it works. Like no one has ever sold their house below market to such an extent that one would run to buy it. That makes no sense. If you lose your house, it goes to the bank.

                                          but banks dont want houses. they want the balance of the loan. in a moderate recession realestate will get auctioned fast and low.
