We help by moving on, building new ties, and never forgiving or trusting again at least as long as this farce is in living memory.
Watch that memory die the moment a European politician sees a chance for lining their own pockets...
How so? Is the USA really a viable investment right now? Do you realistically see it becoming reliable one in the foreseeable future?
No and no, but that hasn't kept European politicians from treating it as such. Especially our German "government" is full of sycophants kissing Silicon Valley's arses.
The rich can weather the chaos just fine. They can use the opportunity to buy even more when the prices are lowest.
Things that would wipe a normal persons retirement or kids college fund out are seen a "market corrections" and investment opportunities by these ghouls.
Yup.
People are irrational and there's money to be made off them
Hard to debate this, very hard.
My condolences.
What, to me? What for?
I thought from your comment you were from or lived in the USA.

All good, it might end up being as bad if our population keeps doing dumb shit and our lucky country politicians keep responding to that.
