Peter Schiff dives into the wild financial markets, tariff drama, trade deficits, and golden opportunities.Download the CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning at https://netsuite.com/goldPeter Schiff discusses the recent turmoil in the financial markets, attributing it to the imposition of tariffs by the Trump administration. Schiff criticizes the tariffs, asserting that they hurt the U.S. economy, caused the dollar and bond markets to crash, and ultimately led to significant market volatility. He contends that Trump's tariffs were a misguided attempt to reduce trade deficits and that they contradicted basic economic principles. Schiff outlines how foreign investors fleeing U.S. assets and central banks favoring gold over dollars indicate a shift away from U.S. economic dominance. He emphasizes the importance of investing in gold mining stocks, anticipating substantial growth as the economic crisis unfolds.
Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks joins The Winston Marshall Show to rip into Trump's China tariffs—and the bipartisan rot at the heart of American politics.He slams the MAGA trade war as clumsy and counterproductive, arguing that broad-brush tariffs will backfire economically and geopolitically. Uygur calls instead for smart, targeted industrial policy—and a higher minimum wage to lift up working Americans.With trademark fire, Cenk torches corporate capture in both parties, hails economic populists like Ro Khanna and Greg Casar, and urges the left to drop the culture wars and focus on kitchen-table issues: wages, drug prices, and inequality.All this—populism left and right, Trump's economic fallout, and the future of honest politics in an era of tribal madness… #trump #tariffs #politics -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters0:00 Introduction2:58 The Nature and Effects of Tariffs7:13 Economic Consequences of Tariffs15:05 Globalization and Its Impact on American Workers17:11 Corporate Rule and Its Influence on Politics43:50 Bernie Sanders and the Democratic Party57:46 AOC and the Culture Wars1:00:07 The Role of Corporate Lobbyists in Trade Deals1:02:22 The Impact of Corporate Subsidies1:05:54 Encouraging Independent Thinkers and Honesty1:08:13 Closing Remarks Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Matt and Doug discuss the broader implications of Trump's economic plan, including his focus on tariffs and national security. They dive into whether national security threats are real or a governmental construct and analyze the underlying motivations behind Trump's economic strategies and defense spending. Doug calls into question the efficacy and real purpose of the tariffs and the trillion-dollar defense budget, suggesting that these moves might be aimed at countering China's growing economic power. They also explore the potential global consequences of these policies, including a possible lead-up to World War III, and highlight the current state of the stock and bond markets, gold prices, and the potential for a mining boom. Throughout, they put forth a call to action for listeners to review their personal financial positions, particularly in terms of gold and silver investments, amidst the evolving global economic landscape. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:08 The Trump Economic Plan and Tariffs 00:50 National Security Debate 03:23 Defense Spending and Priorities 04:32 China's Economic Power 05:27 US Manufacturing Challenges 07:48 Tariffs and Trade Deficits 08:52 Global Trade Dynamics 10:45 US Foreign Policy and Military Actions 17:16 Ukraine Conflict and US Involvement 22:32 Impact of Drone Strikes on Russia 25:06 The Trump Regime and Anti-Woke Sentiments 27:13 Impact of Tariffs on Manufacturing 29:01 Liberation Day and Economic Consequences 34:27 Stock Market and Investment Strategies 36:00 Gold and Financial Chaos 41:40 National Security and Global Order 44:29 Final Thoughts and Viewer Engagement
In this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I'm giving my take (to the best of my ability—because I'm not a tariff expert and neither are most of the people chiming in right now) on Trump's gutsy new tariff move. It's the one that's got half the country cheering and the other half clutching their pearls. While the media yells “economic suicide,” I'm here to suggest that this strategy might actually work—but not overnight. We'll talk about the possibility of long-term gain, the reality of short-term discomfort, and the cultural obsession with instant results when what's often required is patience. I will also go over our collective short attention spans and why longer attention spans are needed for understanding complex issues like this. Every answer won't fit in a 15 second soundbite. At the end of the day, we'll have to pray, wait, and see. Some of the smartest plays take time to unfold.—https://noblegoldinvestments.com/learn/gold-and-silver-guide/?utm_campaign=21243613394&utm_source=g&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=&utm_term=noble%20gold&seg_aprod=&ad_id=698073353663&oid=2&affid=1&utm_source=google&affiliate_source=googleads_brand_bmbc&utm_term=noble%20gold&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADQ2DzJSJ_mi5cJo8dO2FNUs7uNy-&gclid=CjwKCAjwktO_BhBrEiwAV70jXtjSCyioSM2Hz1McTAlR3f8t3KCDDN3-XBWLaIzwJmiEGe0ztxIk5RoCnM0QAvD_BwE

The host argues that, contrary to Trump's claims, the tariffs will not rejuvenate American industries and will instead lead to higher prices for consumers, fewer imports, and potential recession. The tariffs are considered illegal and unconstitutional by the host, who explains that tariffs, historically, have been a burden on the middle class and poor. The host also mentions China's retaliatory tariffs and the broader implications on global trade and economic stability.
After retiring from a career teaching physics, chemistry and biology, Lynne Balzer began organizing extensive notes from a decade-long investigation of the climate change issue. Considering all the facts and looking at the connection between the science, history and politics of this issue, Lynne reached the inevitable conclusion that “human-caused global warming” is one of the greatest hoaxes ever visited upon mankind. Working with Faraday Science Institute, a nonprofit organization, she has researched the topic of global climate change for thirteen years, sorting out fact from fiction.00:00 Introduction to Lynn Balzer and Biofuels00:03 History and Types of Biofuels00:47 The Rise of Petroleum and Decline of Biofuels01:30 UN's Agenda 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals02:41 Ethanol: Production and Impact03:50 Government Policies and Ethanol Mandates07:23 Environmental and Economic Consequences of Biofuels15:25 Global Impact and Food Security Issues18:00 Biofuels vs. Traditional Fuels: Efficiency and Emissions27:55 Alternative Uses of Biofuels30:12 Wood as a Biofuel and Its Environmental Impact38:39 Critique of Climate Change Policies and Biofuels41:45 Summary and Call to Action45:24 Closing Remarks and Final ThoughtsSlides for this podcast, along with AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesExposing the Great Climate Change Lie (2023): https://a.co/d/i6iRW1yHere's Why Using Biofuels for Energy is Unsustainable and Must Stop NOW: https://joehoft.com/heres-why-using-biofuels-for-energy-is-unsustainable-and-must-stop-now/=========AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
Trump Puts Home Construction in CrisisJoin us for a compelling conversation about the impact of the Musk/Trump administration's immigration, tariff, and federal workforce policies on the construction industry, especially housing..In a discussion with Brian Turmail, Vice President of Public Affairs at the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), the Lean to the Left podcast explores those issues, which he says have put home construction in crisis.. Turmail highlights a severe labor shortage exacerbated by restrictions on programs like the H2B visa and cancellations under Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and DACA. This labor scarcity could lead to higher costs, longer construction times, and stalled community development projects. The discussion touches on the broader economic consequences, such as increased housing prices, reduced funding for public education due to stagnant real estate growth, and the potential economic harm from tariffs on construction materials. The AGC advocates for more investment in career technical education and a streamlined, lawful immigration pathway to address these workforce needs. The session concludes with a call to action for listeners to support these initiatives via the website WorkforceDoneRight.org.CHAPTERS:00:00 Trump's Immigration Policies and the Construction Industry00:58 Introduction to the Labor Shortage Crisis01:35 Historical Context and Education Policies02:56 Visa Programs and Their Limitations06:50 Impact of Workforce Shortages on Communities08:17 Potential Solutions and Policy Recommendations20:37 Economic Consequences of Tariffs26:49 Call to Action and ConclusionAbout Bob GattyBob Gatty is a former journalist and communications consultant, the founder and editor of the Lean to the Left blog and host of its podcast.Lean to the Left pulls no punches in calling out Trump, Musk & Co., who are turning our country into their own personal piggybank.Please check out Bob's new book, Hijacked Nation: Donald Trump's Attack on America's Greatness, now available on Amazon.com.

On his first day in office, President Trump issued a series of executive orders, signaling his intent to deliver on campaign promises. Our Global Head of Fixed Income and Public Strategy Michael Zezas takes a closer look at economic impacts of Trump's proposed policy path.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Zezas, Global Head of Fixed Income and Public Policy Strategy. On this episode of the podcast, we'll discuss how trade policy uncertainty is creating volatility in markets.It's Wednesday, January 22nd, at 10am in New York.Earlier this week, Donald Trump was again inaugurated as President of the United States. In the days that have followed, we've fielded tons of questions from investors, who are trying to parse the meaning of myriad executive orders and answers to press questions – looking through that noise for signals about the if, when, and how of policy changes around tariffs, taxes, and more. This effort is understandable because – as we've discussed here many times – the US public policy path will have substantial effects on the outlook for the global economy and markets. And while we've spent some time here explaining our assumptions for the US policy path, it's important for investors to understand this. Even if you correctly forecast the timing and severity of changes to trade, tax, immigration, and other policies, you shouldn't expect markets to consistently track this path along the way. That's because there's bound to be a fair amount of confusion among investors, as President Trump and his political allies publicly speculate on their policy tactics and make a wide variety of outcomes seem plausible. Take tariff policy for example. On Monday, the President announced an America First Trade Policy, where the whole of government was instructed to come up with policy solutions to reduce goods trade deficits and related economic and national security concerns. Tariffs were cited as a tool to be used in furtherance of these goals, and instructions were given to develop authorities on a range of regional and product-specific tariff options. Said more simply, while new tariffs were not immediately implemented, the President appears to be maximizing his optionality to levy tariffs when and how he wants. That will mean that all public comments about tariffs and deadlines, including Trump's comments to reporters on tariffs for Mexico, Canada, and China, must be taken seriously – even if they don't ultimately come to fruition, which currently we don't think they will for Mexico and Canada. For markets, that max optionality can drive all sorts of short term outcomes. In the US Treasury market, for example, our economists believe these tariffs and a variety of other factors ultimately make for slower economic growth in 2026; and so we expect Treasury yields will ultimately end the year lower. But along the way they could certainly move higher first. As my colleague Matt Hornbach points out, tariff threats can drive investor concerns about temporary inflation leading markets to price in a slower pace of Fed interest rate cuts, which helps push short maturity yields higher. So bottom line: investors should be carefully considering US public policy choices when thinking about the medium term direction of markets. But they should also expect considerable volatility along the way, because the short term path can look a lot different from the ultimate destination. Thanks for listening.

They explore the emotional and economic implications of financial neglect, the impact on relationships, and the importance of financial literacy. The conversation emphasizes the need for individuals to take control of their finances through consistent habits and informed decision-making. Takeaways Ignoring finances often stems from fear and avoidance. Facing financial issues is crucial to prevent worsening situations. Emotions play a significant role in how we handle finances. A lower credit score can lead to higher costs in various aspects of life. Financial neglect can strain relationships and marriages. Financial literacy is more accessible than ever, yet often ignored. Taking control of finances requires consistent habits and discipline. Using tools like budgeting can help manage finances effectively. Employers may check credit scores as part of the hiring process. Knowledge about finances can empower individuals to make better decisions. The Cost of Ignoring Finances Facing Financial Fears "Emotions are caused by thinking." "Don't be the person people avoid." "Credit is a tool, use it wisely."

President-elect Trump is wasting no time when it comes to making good on his promise to impose tariffs on foreign nations. He announced he would slap major new tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China on his first day in office. The economic consequences of the tariffs could be enormous, involving multiple industries, goods and groceries. William Brangham discussed more with economist Mary Lovely.

The Great Depression was the worst and deepest peacetime economic shock in the history of the industrialized world. It brought about profound social change and was a significant factor in the drift towards the Second World War. The depth of suffering during the Depression years is hard for many of us to imagine today. More than 1 in five children in the city were suffering from malnutrition by 1932, and the Great Depression was only getting going at that point, it lasted seven more years. So, why did events on Wall Street in 1929 reverberate around the world?

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Ideological Infiltration, Media Bias, and Economic Consequences. The United States is changing. We are nearing the point of no return and people can sense the decline all around them. How deeply have socialist and Marxist ideologies infiltrated American institutions? Are we ready to elect Socialists to the most powerful positions in the world? Jack and historian, crime investigator and journalist Tom Hampson discuss the roots of these pervasive influences. From education to media, we trace the origins back to the 1960s and explore the strategic roles of figures like Antonio Gramsci, Nikita Khrushchev as well as the warnings from influential voices such as Bishop Fulton Sheen about the spiritual battles underlying these political shifts.We contrast these developments with the motivations of immigrants who seek freedom and opportunity in the United States, highlighting the stark differences between the ideological driven agendas of Harris and Walz and the American dream.Please click on the link below to support our podcast: New Easy, user friendly link!https://givebutter.com/Become-Who-You-Are"Please consider making a financial contribution to support our work, Glory Be To God"--JackRead Tom's Article in Substack: The Last Leg of a Long MarchFollow us and watch on X: John Paul II Renewal @JP2RenewalOn Rumble: johnpauliirc Catch up with the latest on our website: jp2renew.org and Sign up for our Newsletter!!

On today's program, sponsored by HII, Byron Callan of the independent Washington research firm Capital Alpha Partners joins Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the Office of Management and Budget's midyear review that shows lower deficit projections than the Congressional Budget Office; budget outlook as Congress moves to again opt for a continuing resolution rather than passing a budget bill; analysis of second quarter earnings and management statements on budget and profit outlook; thoughts on the “Economic Consequences of Weak Governance and Policy Instability” hosted by The Budget Lab at Yale University and The Niskanen Center think tank; takeaways from the Farnborough International Air Show; and a look at the week ahead.
"The Treaty includes no provisions for the economic rehabilitation of Europe, nothing to make the defeated Central Empires into good neighbours, nothing to stabilise the new States of Europe." This damning critique of one of history's best-known peace treaties by a little-known UK Treasury official keeps shaping popular understandings of the accord's legacy. John Maynard Keynes published The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919) during the Paris Peace Conference, painting its chief outcome, the Treaty of Versailles, as not just flawed, but a harbinger of yet more conflict. The Carthaginian peace terms imposed on Germany, Keynes argued, augured revenge. But is this the full story? Were the treaty's consequences as dire as Keynes suggested, or has the economist's indictment, seemingly prophetic in retrospective terms, overshadowed key dynamics that played out during negotiations, but are now forgotten? To delve into this complex history, we are joined by two distinguished guests: historian Margaret MacMillan, the author of Peacemakers: The Paris Peace Conference of 1919 and Its Attempt to End War (2001), and veteran French diplomat and former guest on the podcast Gérard Araud, who is very familiar with the intricacies of such international negotiations and the author of Nous Étions Seuls (2023), a history of French diplomacy between both world wars. The episode explores the treaty's immediate and longer-term consequences, how it aimed to reshape Europe, and why it remains one of the most misunderstood agreements in modern history. Did the treaty plant the seeds of World War II, or has its popular critique left out some important context?

Before moving on from the times when Lloyd George held power, we take a look in this episode at one of the major moments of his time as an international statesman: the Paris Peace Conference and, above all, the specific agreement that emerged from it concerning Germany, the Treaty of Versailles. The episode draws heavily on the views of Maynard Keynes on the Treaty and its likely effects, in particular on its failure to react to the massive gap between the expectations of money from Germany by the victors and the real ability of Germany to pay. At the end, we look at the fact that as well as leaving a deep resentment in Germany of the victorious powers, it also left two nations that were actually with them, Japan and Italy, bitter with the outcome of the Paris conference. Germany, Italy and Japan. Compare that list with the membership of the Axis that the Allies would have to fight in World War 2 twenty years after the end of World War 1. An event which Keynes foresaw. Illustration: Covert og John Maynard Keynes's book, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, of 1919.

This is a special edition of Multipolarity on The Economic Consequences Of The War. In 1919, JM Keynes wrote The Economic Consequences of the Peace. Predicting the death of the old world order after Europe's first unsuccessful attempt at suicide. We aren't yet at peace, but the economic consequences of the present war in the middle of Europe are starting to come into view. Consequences for NATO as a new study shows that in order to meet their target of 2% of GDP, European Nato members will need to increase spending by €56 billion every year. For sanctions policy as Azerbaijan records a 2000 % spike in car sales from Britain. And for industry in The Coming Multipolar Age, as Chinese production leaves Western Production for dust. This week: we're going to be moving through each in turn, to build up a composite picture of what tomorrow will look like, whatever the exact outcome of the Ukraine War. ** Please like, subscribe, and be excellent to each other.TwitterPatreon
New York City's struggle with its sanctuary status is a topic of heated debate, with the city grappling with resource limitations amidst a growing immigrant population. Mike Sperrazza, a critic of the city's approach, believes that the city's open invitation to immigrants is unsustainable due to resource constraints. His perspective, shaped by his disbelief in Mayor Eric Adams' policies, advocates for stricter immigration policies and the deportation of illegal migrants. Similarly, Mike Hoeflich expresses skepticism towards the city's sanctuary struggle. He criticizes the city's attempt to be a compassionate sanctuary while dealing with issues like homelessness and crime. Hoeflich, like Sperrazza, suggests prioritizing the deportation of illegal migrants and criticizes the right to shelter rule. Both their perspectives highlight the complexities and challenges of New York City's sanctuary struggle. 00:01:28 Struggling Resources in New York City 00:06:22 Controversy over Fanny Willis' cash usage 00:08:37 The Economic Consequences of California's $50 Minimum Wage Proposal 00:14:21 Misuse of Campaign Funds Raises Ethical Concerns 00:20:33 Addressing Gun Violence through Illegal Firearm Prevention 00:21:59 The Link Between Mental Illness and Gun Violence
In this gripping episode of Capitalist Investor, join Derek, Tony, and Luke as they delve into the complex world of electric vehicles (EVs), government intervention, and financial forecasts. Today's episode takes you on a thought-provoking journey analyzing the impact of government incentives on automotive giants like Ford and Toyota, discussing the potential hindrances to EV innovation, and debating the readiness of the market for widespread EV adoption. The trio doesn't shy away from the big questions as they examine the Federal Reserve's balancing act with the banking sector, the risky arbitrage game banks are playing, and the looming concerns over a centralized banking system. The discussion takes an intriguing turn with predictions on the big game, a humorous debate on Taylor Swift prop bets, and a candid conversation on the significance of CEOs engaging in high-intensity activities for personal and business growth. Don't miss their take on the upcoming interview between Tucker Carlson and Vladimir Putin, and potential repercussions on media transparency and freedom. Electric Vehicle Market Disruption and Government Incentives: A Double-Edged Sword?The Capitalist Investor podcast team, Derek, Tony, and Luke, dove deep into the heated discussions on government incentives for electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers like Ford and Toyota. With Ford receiving substantial incentives, leading to certain inefficiencies and possibly stifling innovation within the EV segment, the hosts emphasized the importance of sustainable development versus the urge to rush EV deployment. Notably, Ford's electric truck, the Lightning, was used as a case in point for potential pitfalls. They scrutinized the government's role in potentially hindering EV innovation, suggesting that such actions could disincentivize profitability and adversely affect future investments in research and development.The Economic Consequences of Federal Reserve Policies and Banking BehaviorWhat is the current arbitrage game played by banks—borrowing at lower rates and investing in higher-yield treasuries—a strategy frustrating the Fed itself. The duo cast a critical eye on the challenges faced due to higher interest rates, especially the refinancing of commercial real estate, with looming foreclosures that could reshape the banking landscape and increase government control over finance. The Evolving Role of Media and its Influence on Public PerceptionLuke and Tony set the spotlight on the highly anticipated interview between journalist Tucker Carlson and Russian President Vladimir Putin, illustrating the potential for significant media influence. They expressed concerns over public misinformation and stressed the importance of informed questioning, with suggestions on possible queries regarding US political outcomes and foreign policy. The conversation underscored the responsibilities and power held by media figures in shaping narratives and the public's understanding of global events.San Francisco vs. Kansas City: Super Bowl Predictions and Pop Culture BetsThe atmosphere lightened as Derek, Tony, and Luke discussed predictions for the upcoming Super Bowl, with differing opinions on the likely victor based on team strategies and player experience. Amidst the sports talk, they injected a dose of humor with prop bets related to pop icon Taylor Swift and her potential Super Bowl appearance, adding a layer of celebrity culture to the competitive sports discussion.CEO Risk-Taking and the Critique of High-Stakes LeadershipConcluding the episode on a thought-provoking note, the Capitalist Investor hosts examined the me

[S5.5 E08] The Politics of HumiliationStay connected with the latest news from Politics in Motion. Join our mailing list today: https://www.politicsinmotion.orgIn his book, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, economist John Maynard Keynes warned against the humiliation of Germany at the end of World War I. Keynes argued that if you deal with Germany by humiliating it and draining it of any economic possibilities, keeping it lost underground as it were, there will be instability all across Europe and there will be social uprisings and all the rest of it. So what Keynes was predicting in a way was the sort of social instability that started to become very apparent almost immediately after the Versailles conference in 1923 when Hitler launched his coup attempt in the Munich beer Hall. And it was generally laughed at and said this was kind of a very amateurish operation and that therefore didn't go very far. And Hitler got arrested and was sentenced to jail for five years, but got out after five months. But nobody took this seriously. And this seems to me to be one of the lessons which comes from reading Keynes on The Economic Consequences of the Peace and living through the 20th Century that too many have not actually recognized the significance of this dimension to the conflicts which are going on around us.David Harvey's Anti-Capitalist Chronicles is co-produced by Politics in Motion.

In an extended version of the programme that was broadcast, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the influential book John Maynard Keynes wrote in 1919 after he resigned in protest from his role at the Paris Peace Conference. There the victors of World War One were deciding the fate of the defeated, especially Germany and Austria-Hungary, and Keynes wanted the world to know his view that the economic consequences would be disastrous for all. Soon Germany used his book to support their claim that the Treaty was grossly unfair, a sentiment that fed into British appeasement in the 1930s and has since prompted debate over whether Keynes had only warned of disaster or somehow contributed to it.

With neo-Keynesian hacks like Will Stancil crowing about the alleged successes of Bidenomics, it seemed fitting to bring on Jamie Merchant, author of many incisive articles in Paul Mattick's Field Notes section of the Brooklyn Rail and elsewhere to discuss capital, finance and permanent crisis. Topics include the enduring legacy of the tendency of the rate of profit to fall, the limits of 'financialization' discourse, the politics of crisis theory, the limits of industrial policy, the Brenner-Riley debate, anti-anti-globalization, so-called Political Capitalism and more.In the bonus section we discuss the outlines of what a determinate negation of globalization might look like and how to turn global production into international proletarian power. Lastly, Sean, Andy and Jamie take a first pass at an internationalist perspective on fast-moving events in Palestine and what the outcome of resistance might be for the people of Gaza, the West Bank and the broader Middle East.To access the full episode and a ton more bonus content, become a patron at www.patreon.com/theantifadaArticles by Jamie Merchant:https://brooklynrail.org/2022/03/field-notes/Endgame-Finance-and-the-Close-of-the-Market-Systemhttps://brooklynrail.org/2018/02/field-notes/Fantasies-of-Secession-A-Critique-of-Left-Economic-Nationalismhttps://brooklynrail.org/2018/07/field-notes/Dreams-of-National-Capital-Market-Socialism-Past-and-Presenthttps://brooklynrail.org/2023/07/field-notes/The-Economic-Consequences-of-Neo-KeynesianismRiley and Brenner's 7 Theses on American Politics and further debate:https://newleftreview.org/issues/ii138/articles/dylan-riley-robert-brenner-seven-theses-on-american-politicshttps://jacobin.com/2023/09/robert-brenner-marxist-economics-falling-rate-of-profit-stagnation-overcapacity-industrial-policyhttps://jacobin.com/2023/10/stagnation-productivity-profit-crisis-brenner-debate-1970s-economicsTaylor Swift - End Game
