Re: whistleblower Curtis in dead heat in Florida

What IS tmportant about Curtis is that he's trying to defeat a CRIMINAL who is already in Congress.
What one Representative thinks about tariffs is irrelevant - that has to be hashed out politically (hopefully with other non-criminals) on a national level.  

The Great Depression was far more exacerbated by the incredibly stupid move by the Federal Reserve to suddenly wipe out much of the world's money supply - making massive unemployment and world-wide contraction inevitable.  That lesson WAS learned - nothing remotely similar has ever been tried again.  The painful lesson of having huge financial institutions unregulated and unaccountable was learned for some sixty years, but now the transnational megacorps rule again, and world contractions are inevitably returning.
