I get some of the skepticism and it seems to an extent we are in uncharted waters,

I read how wine growers say, may be suffering while this is a tariff war on technology.

I have somewhat faith in folks like Larry Kudlow and the economists there.

Rubio said, it might hurt at first. Yes, lots of variables are here.

You appear to have a POV filled with catchphrases but absent a drop of reality.  I encourage to read the essay posted below in full. @Absalom

Wow, Benny Boy sure is informative and as well as prayerful.
So Trump is a true hero even though was a confirmed draft-dodger
during the Viet-Nam War??? Hmm...................
As for the Chinese, they are at least equal to any people on the Earth,
including no doubt the Ancient Greeks and Romans!!!
Just reading that produces instant numbness!!!
Anyway we have been warned, as Benny insists there's more to come.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph, please spare us!
No need to retort; just go far away and take Benny w/you!!!

Nobody fights a war because war itself is beneficial.  You fight a war because you anticipate a peace that is better than what you had.
I understand what you are saying but do not agree totally.

History shows us some countries went to war also in order to keep patriotism and nationalism at high levels.

Portraying another as an enemy is a classic maneuver by politicians to rally its citizens.  And it works as sometimes the war never ended.  On purpose.

No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington
