The economic level of uncertainty
created by over 5,000 pages of new health care and finance laws along
with more than a $trillion of political pork (‘stimulus’) spending are
significant.
The level of uncertainty in the international relations is even greater. We have terrified our allies. Japan has opened full and intense partnership relations with China. East Europe is looking for anyway to get out from under the Putin claw, the Russians are sending combat subs to American waters and as J.E. Dyer points out, Israel has closed a new defense alliance with Russia and is doing the same with China and India.
