Aaaand there go the markets again! At a certain point, you have to start blaming the victim (in this case I mean the markets). I mean, fool me once, shame on you, fool me 38 times...
It can take decades, and in this case we've been watching it for a while saying "wow this is bad, Eisenhower/Nixon/Reagan/BushJr/Trump is the symptom of a bigger problem" and shit keeps getting bad and corruption wins over and over for decades.
In the future there will possibly be historians saying, "this marks the collapse of the American Empire", and I honestly can't say whether they'll draw that line in the past, present, or future. It depends on a lot. We live in grey area times.

You're witnessing the fall of an empire in realtime. It doesn't take decades, it takes months to years.

Well it has worked super well so far. Why not turn that $300B reparations bill into $500B? Much strategy, wow.
