In reality I know that it probably won't happen. But the idea of prices going up 25% and people finding a way to blame Biden is making me pre angry.
not be silly, all manufactures will immediately and instantly build factories in the US, hire local people for the same wage as those overseas and all will be right with the world.....In reality I know that it probably won't happen.

It's certainly in moral decline with the population almost enslaved to social media algorithms and an incoming cabinet made up of anti Vax, conspiracy theorists and Russian assets but it's still the place to be for tech, it's still and will remain the biggest economy and it's currency is the world trading currency.I worry the USA is rapidly in decline, the lunatics and corrupt have taken over at all levels and the worst part is the populace seem to support it...
It's a place for tech now but what if MAGA decide tech and unis are woke enemies? It's a very common theme among these sorts of people. I imagine US universities will begin to struggle if the administration decides they are the enemy.It's certainly in moral decline with the population almost enslaved to social media algorithms and an incoming cabinet made up of anti Vax, conspiracy theorists and Russian assets but it's still the place to be for tech, it's still and will remain the biggest economy and it's currency is the world trading currency.
The only thing it really should be concerned about is it's debt and deficit which is absolutely eye watering now. It's amazing to think the original deficit under Reagan was sorted in one term by Bush senior and and Clinton actually ran a budget surplus.
Given that Musk is the new Archangel Gabriel to Trumps Jesus then no I don't see MAGA attacking tech especially when the American economy is so dependent on it. As for universities...well yes academia has long been seen as an enemy of the alt right and it wouldn't suprise me if they are made the enemy which will have consequences down the line for tech.It's a place for tech now but what if MAGA decide tech and unis are woke enemies?

Musk is only one part of US tech. Things like Google, non-Maga social media, healthcare etc could all be in the cross hairs. More likely though is attacks on academic and research institutions, as well as on any foreign people they employ. It may become harder for the USA to attract people if they are likely to be subject to abuse as foreigners and academia. Trump and Musk may also fall out, generally narcissists can't stand each other.Given that Musk is the new Archangel Gabriel to Trumps Jesus then no I don't see MAGA attacking tech especially when the American economy is so dependent on it.

Thought Musk was very against AI?There's tech, and then there's tech that suck up to Elon - the latter is where the money will go
There'll be a big push on AI, especially as MAGA have lloovveedd using it in this election
Nah, he's all in now....because he's launched his own one called xAI (and shoehorned into Twitter as Grok)Thought Musk was very against AI?
Might change his tune seeing as grok says he is the biggest spreader of misinformation on Twitter.Nah, he's all in now....because he's launched his own one called xAI (and shoehorned into Twitter as Grok)
fairly certain i saw theyve already said theyre going to do whatever they can so "fix" anything connected with diversity in universities and where they can remove funding from courses they feel are a waste of moneyIt's a place for tech now but what if MAGA decide tech and unis are woke enemies?

To be fair, the beret does improve the hairdo a lot...
Sadly it is and as a super power and it's been coming for a while. Trump is just the Pied Piper leading them like lemmings off the edge of a cliff. When it goes ***s up, we'll all be telling them: I told you so and Trump and the 50% who voted for him deny any responsibility and blame everyone else but themselves.I worry the USA is rapidly in decline, the lunatics and corrupt have taken over at all levels and the worst part is the populace seem to support it...
