He’s talking about 25% tax on $150B but Elon saved the United States 100% on $105B in one month. As a wise man once said, “You don’t have the cards.”

The reopening of coal mines, oil rigs, wells, refineries, and power plants, along with the return of several companies to the United States similar to the trends observed during Trump's first term, indicates a positive outlook for job creation. For the first time in many years, we have reopened America to mineral mining opportunities, Zelensky's supporters are beginning to turn against him regarding negotiations for assistance in the Ukraine conflict. Engaging in discussions with Putin to reach an agreement aimed at halting the war should not be misconstrued as forming an alliance with him; rather, it is a pragmatic approach. In diplomacy, it is common to negotiate with individuals one may not personally favor, this will lead to a Huge Mineral rights deal
Comment makes specific claims about job creation, mining opportunities, and economic trends without evidence, framed as economic argument with unsubstantiated assertions.

The people behind The Century Initiative will be very wealthy now thanks to the disaster caused by the mass migration.

Frames immigration as economically motivated conspiracy benefiting elites and politicians, mixing economic grievance with unverified claims about wealth transfer.

We non-crazy people have to adopt the autarky strategy to make ourselves independent of the crazy people. In Germany we say „separating the wheat from the chaff“.? As long as the main trade rule, that we are all profiting from trade, is not sufficiently understood… Global prosperity would always be the better choice and we have backwards development. Inacceptable for young world citizens.
Discusses trade policy, economic interdependence, and prosperity as moral imperatives, advocating for global cooperation over isolation.
