In today's world, much like all through history, the myth of "being your own man" is over-rated. Hitler needed his staff, Stalin went through several very effective right-hand men whom he had to send to the gulag or worse when people began worshipping them..... Nobody really can be their own man. Me neither.
So Trump was not the intended patsy for the Brit/Am financial interests. Hillary was. They can hardly swallow their pride and accept the cold hard reality that they now have to work through Trump to do stuff, and they have to use their substantial talents of persuasion. I am afraid Trump is going to dance with them, and get in bed with them.
That is why I try to tell folks there's better ideas out there than what the CFR has been pushing, than what is on the dance card so far. The fascists need to produce a better plan for our future, or we should reject them. Probably we can't just round them up and shoot them like any tin-hat banana republic thug would do. We have to educate them. We have to make it clear that we reject their stupid intended agenda and make them listen to the people.///
That's what having elected representatives in a Constitutional Government should be about. We need to revamp the UN on the same principles.
But for now, it is progress to build infrastructure to facilitate trade and markets worldwide so people can do business more effectively.
If the little guys can function efficiently, the cartels will become less important.
