Investors’ view:
"America is no longer the home of the free-market economy..."
The increase in market
concentration in places like manufacturing can be attributed to competition
from China, which drove weaker competitors out of the market. Companies like
Walmart, in the 1990s, drove the rate of investment and productivity growth
higher in the 1990s while the opposite happened in the 2000's: rising market concentration drove
the profits of entrenched companies up and both the investment rate and
productivity lower.

Profit
Market in the US and EU
Competition in product markets
has become far more effective in the EU over the course of the last 20 or 30 years.
It is reflective of purposeful deregulation and a more
aggressive and independent competition policy than in the U.S.

Difference
In the mark-up of prices over the cost

The Supreme Court even ruled in 2010 that
"companies are persons" and "money is speech". Former
representative Mick Mulvaney summed it up in 2018: “If you’re a lobbyist who never gave us money, I didn’t talk
to you. If you’re a lobbyist who gave us money, I might talk to you.”
Corporate lobbying is two to three times bigger in the U.S. than in the
EU. Campaign contributions are about 50 times larger.
The Book of Thomas Philippon says that while the
weight of these mega-huge companies is no bigger than that of giants in the
past, their links to the economy as a whole are far smaller than they ever
were.

US DOMESTIC POLITICS
Seudo democ duopolico in US is

All the
status quo "fixes" only hasten the collapse of
the status quo...
That economic, social and political conflict is
accelerating is self-evident. What's open to debate are the core drivers of conflict / disorder
/unraveling.
Here's the core self-reinforcing dynamic in my view:
1. The status quo
elites can no longer mask soaring costs of essentials nor soaring wealth /
income inequality between the top .01% (Oligarchs), the top 9.99% who enrich
the Oligarchs with their discretionary spending and technocratic/managerial
labor, and the bottom 90% who are rapidly losing ground on all fronts:
economic, social and political.
2. The elites' "fixes" to the social / political conflicts
unleashed by the rigged financial system and winner take
most economic order are politically expedient, meaning they don't
actually address the sources of conflict, they merely paper them over with PR
as a means of preserving the elites' wealth and power.
3. The elites'
fundamental financial "fix" is to create trillions in newly issued
currency and distribute it to the banks, financiers, super-wealthy families and
global corporations-- the top .01% Oligarchs.
4. This
"fix" accelerates the asymmetric distribution of wealth by enabling
the already-wealthy to buy more productive assets, fund stock buybacks, etc.,
while forcing the bottom 90% to borrow money from the Oligarchs to make ends
meet: the rich get richer, the poor get more indebted.
5. The only possible
output of these inputs (political expediency to preserve the elites' wealth and
power, the creation and distribution to the Oligarch class of trillions in new
currency) is the acceleration of the very erosion that fueled social /
political conflicts in the first place. In effect, the elites'
"fixes" are accelerating the conflicts that will ultimately lead to
their downfall.
This is why the unraveling cannot be reversed or
stopped
These stages are predictable because human nature is
predictable. That elites
will follow a pathway of expediency to preserve their wealth and power is
predictable, and this pathway includes the debauchment of currency (printing
ever greater sums to add to their wealth and placate the masses), the
substitution of credit for capital, the political disenfranchisement of the
masses, increasingly oppressive financial repression
and social / political conflicts that spiral out of control as the inherently
unstable financial house of cards collapses.
See VIDEO-Picture:
Since the elites won't allow an orderly re-set that
reduces their wealth and power, the re-set will result from spiraling conflicts
and the collapse of all that is viewed as permanent, i.e. the financial and political status
quo.
Don't think it won't
happen just because it hasn't happened yet.
