Carney: "Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon."

Its called military keynesianism. Its how the US creates dollars, which are then imported into Europe and the globe.

Places like Europe, Canada, and China maintain a net export with the US, importing USD, which stabilizes their currency. The US imports debt and runs a large deficits in order to supply USD to the world. This is what Trump seemingly wants to milk to drop corporate tax, and thus Europe now has to build up their military, in order for their economic system to continue to function without USD.

Too Many Words. I'll Vote For A Rapist Instead.

Corporate tax cuts are economic growth, which helps approval ratings.

Deficits are an easy way to please everyone by offloading austerity to the future.

So every government in all of human history has borrowed from the future, and have even curated their economists to push a message that deflation is dangerous and that debt needs to be monetized.

Then for some reason debt has exploded, crypto and risk stocks are completely disconnected from reality, and the bailouts get larger and larger.

We need to rename all these streets and replace statues due to past transgression. But the monarch that pushed colonialization all over the world gets a pass due to fun crowns and funny accents.
