Donald Trump's tariffs are not a negotiation tactic. They are a very deliberate plan to destroy the liberal global trading and financial system the US itself established. And all of us could pay a heavy price for his attempt to reshape the world order.
The world economic system includes many places that aren’t the USA and many of them were doing pretty well. That to me would suggest that there’s another problem to blame for the crappy situation people are dealing with in the US. I’m all for rethinking a system to help benefit more people but I really don’t think that’s what’s happening here at all.
What do you understand about the economic system? For example, how the money supply is created, and the ramifications of “interest” and “inflation”. What you’ll find if you do, is that the system is fundamentally broken if your goal is sustainability on this planet for any serious length of time.
Most of the current world order couldn’t care less, clearly or we’d have done things about climate change that weren’t just technical advancements buying us time if making any difference whatsoever.
Real austerity for the wealthy could pay for solving most of the world’s issues, several times over. And we have the resources to do it globally. It shouldn’t be a matter of “cost”.

But it’ll probably never happen, unfortunately.
