    some childish part of me wants to see how this new gilded age being ushered in by the american oligarchs will accelerate change within the american empire due to removal of protections like the faa; but the adult in me knows that it will entail lots of suffering and that i’m one of the people who will be caught up on it before another fdr-like president/congressperson comes to the rescue again.

      Unfortunately, I expect there is going to be immense suffering for the working class in the coming years.

          It’s possible, but it also could play out the same way as in Russia where people just sucked it up, and then Putin came in and reigned in the worst excesses stabilizing the system.

            Except Trump is a petty moron who is incapable of achieving any of that. He just gave the keys to the henhouse to all the techbro capitalist wolves.

            Something tells me they are going to use this as a last ditch effort to make as much money at everyone’s expense.

            The fact that Musk has access to the treasury payments system is a massive overstep and conflict of interest. The US people are funding his plans to get to mars and play astronaut while the rest of the country burns.
