The US used to be respected and trusted. It is neither any longer. Be sure to thank the person responsible and the geniuses that voted for him. 'Donald Trump has turned the United States into an economic banana republic' https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-donald-trump-us-economy-third-world-economic-model/ "Back in the bad old days, before the wall fell, doing business in what was then known as the Third World was an exercise in economic frustration. This is perhaps why very few modern leaders have thought, “Man, I wish I could turn my country into, say, Chad.” The exception clearly being Donald J. Trump. However much the actual adults in the Oval Office may disapprove, the U.S. has reshaped revenue collection around the simple, regressive models preferred by Third World dictators. And, like the backwaters that survived on a single commodity such as cacao, gold or oil, the U.S. has become a banana republic. American economic vitality in 2026 is derived from a lone native sector – tech – and growth is premised on going all in."
