Enough already!
All the noise does not help. All the commentary does not help.
Creating fear, DOES NOT HELP.
Sometimes you need some pain before you can grow again.
Whether in the gym, in sports or in life, pain is part of prosperity.
Pain is part of the process.
Look, I have no idea if the tariffs will work or not. I am not an economist.
What I do know, for certain, is that $36 trillion in debt does NOT work.
Taxing people for goods and services where they struggle to pay their bills, educate their children, save money for retirement or feed their children nutritious food…does not work.
So, love him or hate him, at least we are trying something new.
Let’s give it some time. Let’s see what happens.
We did not get here overnight, and we will not get out of it overnight.
Patience.
I do not have a crystal ball. I just don’t.
But where we were was not going to work.
As someone wise once said, “You cannot borrow your way out of debt.”
At some point, you must try something new. Buck the norm and change the dynamic.
Let’s just see what happens.
Patience.
