The Trump Recession is here.

9 posts in this topic

It's not here yet; however, the labor market has now gotten much weaker with this weak July jobs report and the big revisions made to both the May and June jobs reports because of Trump's moronic tariff scheme.

Now, the growing consensus amongst top independent economists is that we probably are going to have a recession by next year, more or less.

So, not yet, but that will be coming soon to a theatre near you.

Recession is the best thing for us at this point. You better hope for it because it's the only thing that will wake Americans up out of supporting Trump's corruption.

There needs to be pain for all this political stupidity because people are too self-deceived to learn any other way.

The longer this corruption goes without punishment from the universe, the more disasterous the inevitable crash will be.

Agreed, I'm rooting for it to hit hard and fast. Wake the fuck up people. Life and survival are more nuanced than what your lizard brain is ready to comprehend.

That's what my dad and I have been saying.

I actually think a true economic depression might be the major shock our country needs to break out of this political hell for good.

Such a crisis wouldn’t just jolt enough Americans out of complacency—it could also create the best opportunity for a major political realignment, one where the Democratic Party could dominate American politics and hold supermajorities in both chambers of Congress for years to come, similar to the era of FDR and the New Deal coalition.

@Leo Gura Does his new AI plan change your opinion on him to a degree? Given that we are at an arms race with China. 

Not saying he's good by any means, but from my limited amount of understanding, I see the AI plan as a necessary step to ensure humanity's safety. Better us have it than China?

Or do you have completely different meta thinking on that? 

What's odd with corruption, as I see with Elon, Trump and many others, is out of their own selfishness, agenda, etc. and drive for wealth, they create this sort of "boundary of survival" around America that ends up doing a lot of good, despite that corruption.

It's very bad to allow these fucking Tech Assholes to steal everyone's data and monopolize labor.

No, I am not utopian about AI. The more I see of AI the more disgusting it gets.

AI is not a solution to our problems, it is a scheme for a few billionaires to become trillionaires while everyone else is left with crumbs.

AI needs serious regulation, not a free for all.

@Leo Gura Im with you on those points. 

Yes these tech assholes are wrong for stealing everyone's data, have very low moral compass, monopolize labor, and selfishly pursuing the economy's wealth to lie in the hands of a few at the expense of many. 

But from strictly an existential survival of the human race perspective, is there not also the case that China is also doing the same thing, on a much faster scale? I mean just imagine we let this play out over 5 years, say we follow your view that US doesn't go into this crazy nutjob AI race. Would it not be the case that China does, and therefore they have control over a lot of the world?

I get how wrong AI is, but even you have said in the past AI is developing on a rate that is existential for humanity, that we are creating crazy powerful robots, etc. Imagine a world where China has that and USA doesn't. Would that not make USA severely vulnerable to China? 

If I had a choice, I would shut down AI today. I'm not happy with AI either overall. I really would want to shut it down today. But I know the cat is out of the bag, and Im specifically looking at the perspective of existential survival of humanity against China. If you look into the specifics of China's AI development, what they've said, etc. it's not some small thing. It's quite important. 

I do also see the downsides of an unregulated AI environment. That may harm us much faster. But I do also want to look at the China vs. USA perspective.
