The US isn’t taking money from other countries - you clearly don’t understand the scam!

We give money to Israel, Ukraine, and everyone else - we print and print and print and a few people close to the action take some off the top.

That’s it. Maybe some rich kids get their university debt wiped clean (not community college though).

The US and even local governments within have become corrupted to the core - they are like ATMs and havens of various types for the emerging international wealth class.

That class may very well want to promote your idea since the best seat at the table right now is China.

Now everyone wants to be owed by the US à la China, it’s been great for international business. Mexico is the heir to that throne more than Europe - which doesn’t produce anything the world wants.
