\n \t* Short and not-so-sweet.\xa0 Maybe that's how you would describe President Trump's inaugural speech
\n \t* Which, I think was the briefest since Jimmy Carter
\n \t* But now, Donald J. Trump is the 45th President of these United States
\n \t* I did in general like his speech; I agree with much of what Donald Trump had to say
\n \t* Talking about how bad things are in the U.S. economy
\n \t* Yes, there were some people who benefited
\n \t* People in Washington certainly benefited, certainly Washington has been booming, right?
\n \t* Because they've been sucking all the wealth out of the rest of the country
\n \t* So the bureaucrats and certain segments of the population have benefited
\n \t* From central planning and central banking and the cheap money and the bubbles
\n \t* But Donald Trump hit the nail on the head
\n \t* When he talked about all the factories like tombstones littering the landscape
\n \t* How our wealth has been sucked out
\n \t* The Middle Class has been hollowed out and the country is hurting
\n \t* All this is true, and I like the fact that he says we're going to take back the government for the people
\n \t* Take it away from the elites, take it away from the bureaucrats and bring the power back to the people
\n \t* All that is great.
\n \t* The question is, What exactly does Donald Trump mean by that?
\n \t* Does he mean, get the government off the people's backs?
\n \t* Does he mean unshackle us from government
\n \t* Get rid of all the regulations, get rid of all the taxes and government spending
\n \t* Get rid of all the bubble blowing
\n \t* Let's have sound money and higher interest rates
\n \t* Let's have a real economy so that individual Americans can pull themselves up out of the ditch on their own?
\n \t* That we can roll up our sleeves and work our way out of this gigantic hole that the government placed us in
\n \t* And if it's going to be free enterprise, limited government and freedom?
\n \t* Of that's what he means by "Taking back the government for the people"
\n \t* Then, that's great
\n \t* But what if he doesn't mean that?
\n \t* What if he means a Trumpian "New Deal"?
\n \t* What if he's talking about government proactively doing things to "help" the middle class
\n \t* Like big spending on infrastructure, where the government employs the people directly
\n \t* And creates jobs, like they did during the Great Depression?
