Perhaps the U.S. needs to try some sort of protectionist measures in order to shield itself from unfair trade practices and currency manipulation from China. But this will never happen so long as Congress is controlled by a few fascist billionaires. Instead, corporate profits will be placed ahead of domestic jobs. Therefore, as long as the U.S. continues to embrace its unfair trade policy, there will be no real recovery from the current depression for the vast majority of Americans.<br /><br />While things may seem to look better in a few years, in actuality the billionaires' plan for the future is for the US to slowly proceed through its socioeconomic decline until the American Empire has been totally dissolved. Certainly, there will be many additional attempts to resurrect this empire... more wars will be fought, more oil will be taken from abroad, and more asset bubbles will be created. But these tricks will only delay, not prevent the continued decline of the United States. The winding down process is likely to take a few decades, but in exchange for these delays, the total damage will be irreversible. I have no reason to be optimistic about the future of this once great nation.
