MORE OF THE CLINTON DYNASTY IN 2017? Part Two.
THE USA UNDER OBAMA AND CLINTON-
has become weak in Defence, Energy, & Infrastructure. Wall Street buoyed by the 1% mega rich is both artificially high in stocks and disparate to the flagging growth, GDP, & GNP. Coal has too hastily been shut down, while nuclear energy too has become more tenuous, if not threatened. California and New England are particularly fragile in their energy grids. The situation is not improving and the cuts to Defence forces are substantial.
The 50 states of the Union continue to suffer under funding. To keep the Pentagon happy Treasury Budgets have to be altered and other vital areas suffer each time a new country is targeted for an on-going mission which Uncle Sam cannot afford. The Oval Office has bypassed Congress for a long time and its profligate spending is astonishing. The poor returning veterans from its several wars are maltreated by lack of care from the Veterans’ Affairs. Yet that is only the tip of the iceberg that impoverishes both the working class and the middle class in America.
Retail giants have been closing many thousands of stores and factories for a long time. The growing number of abandoned shopping malls is growing by the day. Dams, roads and bridges are in dire need.
When will the artificial bubble on Wall Street and its over-strong dollar burst. Independent economic pundits have been sounding warnings that have gone unheeded. While aging bridges and the like increasingly become life threatening to those in transit the boasted recovery is simply not happening.
All of this at a time of fragile world trade inequities, and global markets that show signs of insecurity if not hesitancy. China, the European Union, Russia, and Britain (by Brexit) are all manifesting fragility.
Is the haughty and sole superpower of the West ignoring such signs to its peril? Is world’s largest economy presumptuously taking its hegemony for granted? Can a renegade president and money hungry Pentagon Chiefs inevitably capsize the presently buoyant “USS Ship of State”? Will polarized self-serving pampered politicians wait until it is too late? Or will they pass the buck when it happens and blame, Russia, China or the 6 million war refugees, instead, whom they have created)?
Recently the emergency oil reserve has been accessed and because oil & gas production has been significantly hampered by Obama’s 8 years of obstructionism making the USA weaker now than it has been for many decades. Treasury coffers are being increasingly raided by presidential executive orders ordering expensive new surges and military operations in Libya, Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. Blind spending is the best way to put it. To prop up the Pentagon’s reduced (?) budget other important infrastructure that is so desperately needed, gets ignored.
Could Donald Trump be right after all?
Is Uncle Sam so busy being the world’s policeman (Islam’s policeman??) that it forgets its Christian duty to care for its own?
Selah!
