Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - What Musk won't admit: Gutting USAID may destroy our farmers | Opinion

Thanks for this article.

This is the USA's Structural Adjustment Program -  a taste of  the old 

IMF toxic medicine. The purpose is as nefarious as that

of its  IMF cousin. In this case, it is  tax cuts for the billionaire

 barons.

By mid year we can expect to see about a 25% rise in prices

across the board. By the way,  someone would probably

become the world's first trillionaire by then, too.

 The  electric power of Connecticut and neighboring states

in the northeast is generated from Canada, which has more

 than 30 power transmission connections

to the USA. Electricity costs could increase and that also

has implications for local industry.

 We are about to go back to the depressing repercussions of the 

1930 Smoot-Hawley Act.
