MAGA: The US is the most competitive country in the world

Amid Donald Trump starting trade wars across the globe, the World Economic Forum just unveiled the United States has reclaimed the crown as the most competitive country in the world.

Every year WEF releases its benchmark Global Competitiveness Report that takes a look 98 indicators across 140 countries to determine the overall ranking. Each indicator uses a scale from 0 to 100, to signify how close an economy is to the ideal state or “frontier” of competitiveness. Those indicators are then organized into 12 pillars, such as health, skills, financial system, infrastructure, and institutions.

All you had to do was give up clean air and clean water. And greatly increase the deficit with huge tax cuts for corporations and the top 1%.

So your kids are more likely to die of cancer, you're going to live a shorter life, and if things go as they have been lately in the USA, you will personally end up losing money on the whole deal by the time all is said and done, because you and your family are responsible for your share of the huge increase in the national debt, plus interest.

MAGA!!!!! (For Trump and his swamp buddies!!!!!)


And the thing is, there was never a need to give up any of the things you did, the economy was doing just fine already. Such a stupid decision, except for those who possess the wealth to stay far away from any blighted areas. Just another example of why Trump loves his base:

Donald Trump declares 'I love the poorly educated'

Cheering on having Trump give it to you up the rear. SMH.

The short term vs long term impacts of this administrations policies will be the real measure of what all of this means when assessing its success. Right now there's too much early celebrating/nay saying to really tell. I'm not optimistic about the long term results though.

Absolutely!

I know people claim every election is the "most important" election in history, but this one really is extremely important. The Leftist Brownshirts have taken up a very adversarial and seditious position going as far as to attack, Nazi style, Americans who oppose their totalitarian tendencies. Even their elitist leaders are encouraging aggression.

These people do not have the temperament to govern a dog pound much less a nation.
