Domestic Labor

A smal incrament of domestic economic activity drives a large increase in the GDP. Vvelocity times money supply equals gross domestic product (GDP).

As the safest and most profitable option, that capital surplus lands in the US stock market. What's not to like about a capital surplus? That fondness intensifies with any threat of it going away, but why would tariffs be such a threat? Scott Bassett, US Secretary of the Treasury, on CNBC's Squawk Box, 4/8/25, said, "If we put up a tariff wall, the ultimate goal would be to bring manufacturing and jobs back to the US. In the meantime, we will be collecting substantial tariffs. As I...
