While I agree about the increased effort toward privatization, something that the right wing has actually been doing for over 40 years now, as Marshall McLuhan taught us the medium is the message.I don't think you can talk about specifics right now.

It is impossible for us to handicap what somebody's going to do, if they don't know what they're going to do, and they have no idea what will happen,. They have no more idea, than the people who voted in this administration and wanted to drain the swamp, have any idea what will happen. They say they want change, but when questioned they had no idea what that change would entail.

I will tell you what it will entail, it will entail chaos and social devolution into the Lord of the flies.

And the message in this case, will be the fact that the people in charge will have no idea about the big economic picture and what their actions will reap They will not be following modern day economic theory. They are simply going to go into the markets and slash and burn. It will be pure chaos and the markets don't like chaos. The world financial markets will get very scared.The stock market will be plunged into a severe depression. And the Republican congress will slash social programs. The first will be Obama care. If anyone has family or friends with pre existing conditions or a need for it, it will be gone and nothing will replace it except much higher prices for everything.

As well, the increased interest rates, and debt will be very problematic. Foreign countries will stop buying our debt and many will start selling our debt. And that will cause the dollar to fall and interest rates to rise and inflation. And to the reasons they will stop buying our debt, are one, they will fear that we can't pay it off and two Trump has already announced that he might want to renegotiate debt like he's done in the private sector. Who wants to buy debt if that is a probability?

The bottom line, is that the new administrators are going to go forward with equations that simply don't work and they are going to throw the world economic model into chaos. And that is when gold and silver reign supreme.
