Yeah only a billionaire like Dalio can afford to recommend massive top-down re-engineering of the economy. If it doesn’t work he’ll just have a few less billion and the rest of us may not have jobs.
Maybe I am a bit cynical. But from my perspective this, and similar calls for change, doesn't come from suddenly longing for America at its best. But because they increasingly realize that China is coming for their lunch.
That’s very valid reasoning to support change!
Indeed! It’s very easy to give advice, or in the case of politicians, make decisions that will affect millions of people when your decisions are divorced from their consequences, which is basically all modern politics.
