I would not say Wall Street directly, but the successful users of Wall Street...I have no doubt of that...If the founding fathers suddenly appeared to check in on things, they would simply say 'But we revolted against this type of governing'...And I want to be a Labradoodle...
And are these corporations you speak of in the room with us now?
Care to name a few of them?
Also look, Plauge induced panic aside, the U.S. economy does fine for the mostpart. The U.S. G.D.P. grew by 87% from 2008 to 2023, whereas in the same timespan the E.U. economy only grew 13.5%[econofact.org].. As of 2023 the E.U. G.D.P. was only 67% of the U.S.A's., despite the fact that the U>S.A. only has 70% of the population of the E.U. (so you'd expect it to be the other way around, with U.S. G.D.P. being 67% of Europe's). The U.S.A. just manages money better than Europe.
The one big glaring problem with the U.S. economy after Reagan is that the U.S. economy lost its manufacturing base, which is clearly the result of southeast Asia having cheaper labor and laxer regulations. Reagan's push for free trade didn't really get off the ground until he was exiting office. It turns out you can't have strict regulations, high wages and free trade if you want your citizens to have jobs instead of having those jobs outsourced to a nation with laxer regulations and lower wages like Mexico or China because jobs will be outsourced to where it is more cost effective to do business.
Maybe the U.S.A. should have listened to Nancy Pelopsi in 1996 when she asked for tariffs on China. Better late than never I guess. She pointed out that imporation from China only creates 170,000 jobs at the cost of 10 million.
