Globalization has FAILED. Secretary Lutnick at the World Economic Forum: “The Trump Administration and I are here to make a very clear point—globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It’s a failed policy… and it has left America behind.” America is done exporting jobs and offshoring its future. We will no longer give in to globalization.

.The All-In Podcast: "The Commerce Department did something pretty exceptional. They said, 'We're going to start publishing data to the blockchain. All the GDP data is now going into a blockchain.' ... All kinds of economic measures, scrubbed for anonymity, should be published so that you can have pricing oracles that actually tell you what's happening in real time, and the markets will then react and set rates in real time."

Secretary Howard Lutnick on the trade deficit: "In 1985, we owned $140B more in assets in the rest of the world, net, than they owned of us. And today, the rest of the world owns $24T more of America than we own of them. We have exported our money, and they are buying America out from under us. And President Trump is here to stop that leakage."
