No discernable benefit to you maybe, but every crisis ends up benefiting those at the top as it always leads to a wealth transfer either during the crash phase, or the recovery phase, or both. See 2009 crash, Covid, etc.
Your leadership doesn't work to serve you, they work to serve themselves and the elite. People keep calling Trump a stupid bafoon but how come this stupid bafoon keeps getting richer and richer all the time if he's as stupid as people think him to be?
To whit, how much are you willing to bet that after Trump's mandate is over in 4 years time, both Trump, Elon and all his other cronies, will walk away with a bigger net worth than the one they came in? So no, what you see as stupidity now on the news is actually a carefully orchestrated multi year enrichment plan for the elite covered in bread and circus to distract the plebs, that will become evident as time goes on and events unfold.
