What do you see for the future of the American economy? If the Democratic Party has successfully captured total control of the federal government, the fate of the Democratic Party rests with the answer to that question.

Yesterday I drove to our mall to see if it was still open. Only 3 stores still in business. Driving down the mail highway, entire shopping strips also previous full are now empty and becoming derelict structures (humidity and mold destroy empty buildings here fast to the point of having to be torn down for the mold and rot.) All but 2 banks have closed too and half a dozen cafes never reopened too.

In my car, I usually listen to political radio. FOX for Republican radio. PBS for Democratic radio (that's what it is). On PBS, the host and the speaker were in agreement with the speaker said this: "why would anyone risk covid-19 going to a mall, when they can buy everything for less on Amazon?" The host agreed. The online retailer Jeff Bezos, the richest plutocrat on earth and owner of WaPo as his political advertising outlet, like the other Big Tech companies are wasting no time pursuing seizing every private sector dollar.

Notice it was not just "if you go to stores you will die do shop online.' Rather, it was specific. Shop nowhere by Amazon. ALL retail dollars and employment should singularly be with the richest plutocrat to ever exist in the history of earth. Now, a majority of products on Amazon are sold by Amazon, and other merchants quit or our pushed out. Due to Amazon and the rest of Big Tech opting for offshoring over domestic operations, and foreign employees over Americans - and certainly not hiring black and Latino employees - means that 10s of millions of jobs for Americans are gone - and gone forever.

I won't go on and on about Amazon, though will comment all of the MSM, press and Big Tech proactively destroyed Elizabeth Warren's campaign when she said she would break up Amazon for the monopoly it is. Otherwise, because there are a couple of unique products we manufacture - meaning no one else can sell it - we are very familiar with selling on Amazon, its massive control of online sales, and why we stopped because there is no profit to be made by sellers on Amazon - or maybe 1/10th the profit if sold otherwise as Amazon consumes virtually all the profit, while directly competing with other sellers too (something Amazon could not do with our 2 unique products.)

It is not a matter of shortly after taking office Biden and the always singular voice of the plutocracy declares all-clear for businesses to reopen. They can't, they won't, and won't survive if they do. Like PBS said, everyone should only shop online and only online from Amazon. All of Big Tech wants people only shopping online - and all of Big Tech say people should only shop online because their income is from online advertising of online stores - but increasingly those ads are Amazon ads too. Shopping on Amazon, ebay etc is shopping at China. Thus goes local sales tax income too as the government loses payroll, SS and unemployment tax money.
 
How long will the Democratic Party - now 100% responsible for everything - keep spending another non-existent trillion and another and another and another - on paying all the living expenses of tens of millions of American families for which there are not jobs to even hope for - while also having to write trillions of dollars in federal hot checks to cover failing local and state governments? How high can the nation run on debt dollars relying on China to accept our IOUs? 30 Trillion? 50 trillions? 100 trillion?

The ruling class - Big Tech plutocrats - claim they have totally captured the government in this election. Their figureheads are the Democratic Party. The inevitable economic collapse will land on the Democratic Party. Everyone unemployed, everyone whose fixed income checks have less spending power every month - will have no one to blame but the Democratic Party - because the plutocrats aren't going to blame themselves. They will try using wars, disease bioterrorists campaigns, and diversions they can think of. But, the Democrats will bear the guilt.

I remember a friend of mine who is a militant train union lawyer and what he said. "No one can have absolute power. No one can have everything. They can be the most powerful. They can have most wealth. But once anyone or group has all the power, everyone else units and destroys them." The logic of that is obvious.

While Republicans fear fascist/socialist/communist anarchist Democrats will take over now, who has taken over are the Big Tech plutocrats, but their public face is singularly the Democratic Party. There may be a revolution coming due to economic collapse. But with this all blamable on the Democratic Party, it may be rightwing Trump-style populism that is the revolution.

Stealing an election is one thing. A coup over the entire government by the plutocrats - with Democrats as their brown shirts - is entirely different. Seizing total control with huge economic decline is likely unavoidable and permanent may have the exact opposite long term effect you Democrats win.

But we'll see if the entire American economy can run on soon-to-be trillionaire Jeff Bezos online selling made-in-China products like Democratic PBS and most Democrats on this forum claim should happen because of covid-19. Democrats should really hope Republicans hold the Senate so that the plutocratic MSM can blame everything on McConnell.
 
The stock market has been doing really well after the Joe Biden victory.

The overriding problem is that all of the negative effects of lockdowns, such as decimation of the retail industry, are cumulative and chronic, while the benefits of lockdowns are acute and immediate.

All we can do is modify our own behaviour. Shop locally. Do our part to keep businesses afloat.

I heard never-Trumper Cavuto claim this is because it is believed Republicans will hold the Senate - so neither side will be able to do much. But Democrats may well steal both Senate seats gaining a majority and total ownership of the economy.

Of course, the stock market produces absolutely nothing and inflation is inflation.

Most people would rather die that lose saving 17 cents on a roll of tape made in China that they order online. Americans love non-white cheap slave made products more than they did when slavery was legal in this country. But it's ok because the slaves now not only are not white, but foreigners in other countries. That makes slave products ok.
 
A wall of crazy.

Biden one the presidency. Apparently the Democrats forgot to check any boxes for senate races on their invisible faked ballots. Meanwhile SCOTUS is packed 6-3 conservative. Such "total" control. :rolleyes:
