#nzpol new reckon: any economic proposal by the Greens is definitionally taken by the commentariat as the far left boundary of the Overton window. It follows that no Green policy suggestion is ever worth evaluating as it is automatically extreme. (There is no Overton boundary on the right.)

I don’t even know what to say here. We’re talking about a generational posting crashout. Lmfao NOW you’re concerned about conflicts of interest.
“I just figured out why @howardlutnick is indifferent to the stock market and the economy crashing. He and Cantor are long bonds. He profits when our economy implodes. 

It’s a bad idea to pick a Secretary of Commerce whose firm is levered long fixed income. It’s an irreconcilable conflict of interest.”

Yes, I've just punched you in the face. But if you retaliate, it will only escalate things.
New York Times: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urged other governments to hold off on responding to the new tariffs. “One of the messages that I’d like to get out tonight is: Everybody, sit back, take a deep breath. Don’t immediately retaliate,” Bessent said on CNN. “Let’s see where this goes. Because if you retaliate, that’s how we get escalation.”
