While I can understand the America first sentiment, Christian nationalist letting our entire economy crash because they think a global economy is satanic is beyond idiotic
The economy is not crashing because of a few people thinking the economy is satanic.
1. The US has passed all of its pain from inflation onto the rest of the world. They are carrying our load.
2. The wars are evidence that the situation is dire for many nations. People do not go to war when they are happy with their current situation.
3. AI and robots can do the jobs that we currently pay people to do for a very small fraction of the cost. The ROI for companies to adopt these technologies is greater than 100%. For example 3d printers are crushing the sweat shop model for Asia and as bad as that model was, eliminating those jobs is causing a massive disruption to Asian economies.
4. Trump is encouraging 5-10% of federal workers to take a buyout. That is proof positive that Elon Musk and DOGE are all about replacing white collar workers with AI. Six months from now it will be brutal. This is like the iceberg scraping by the Titanic. It may look cool but the lower levels of the US economy are flooding.
