Liberation Day – The Sequel to the Great Depression

Liberation Day – The Sequel to the Great Depression

"One man’s patriotic tariff is another man’s economic extinction."

Mark this post. Screenshot it. Frame it next to your dogecoin certificate. Because in 12 months, this will either be the most clownishly wrong prediction on the internet—or the one video that called it before the world lit itself on fire.

Here's the TL;DR:

Liberation Day might just be the first domino in the worst economic collapse since someone thought Beanie Babies were a long-term investment.

Why?

Reason 1: We Owe More Than Your Cousin Who Never Pays You Back

The U.S. economy is running on IOUs, duct tape, and blind faith. Hedge funds and private equity giants like BlackRock are playing real-life Monopoly—leveraging $50 to every $1 they actually own. That’s not investing. That’s economic cosplay with your retirement account.

Reason 2: We Printed So Much Money, Even Zimbabwe Said “Chill”

Since 2008, America has printed dollars like it’s playing an unlimited game of “stimulus roulette.” Quantitative easing? More like quantitative wheezing—because the system is out of breath and somehow still expected to sprint.

Reason 3: Investors Are Ghosting the Dollar Like It’s a Tinder Date Who Brings a PowerPoint

Thanks to erratic tariff policies and zero clue on what’s temporary, permanent, or just performative rage tweeting, the only thing consistent about U.S. economic policy is that it’s inconsistent. Result? Money is fleeing to gold, a metal we dig up, hide in vaults, and pretend is progress.

Meanwhile...

The ultra-wealthy are getting ready to swoop in like economic Batman—except this time, Gotham is your 401(k), and they’re the ones who lit the signal in the first place.

The Fed? It can either:

Print until the dollar makes Monopoly money jealous, or

Let the market collapse like a drunk Jenga tower and privatize the ashes.

Oh—and remember those tariffs in the 1930s that made the Great Depression worse?

Guess what decade we’re speedrunning right now.

Final Thought:

America doesn’t have a “rich economy.” It has a small group of rich people who own the economy. And when the music stops, they already have seats.
