Armstrong Economics - Canada future-lives-social-mobility-en The fragmentation of Canada is bubbling beneath the surface, as we see in the United States as well as in Europe.

April 21st, 2025 | Anti-Deportation – the Democrats’ New Platform
Armstrong Economics - Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has attempted to paint herself as a moderate in recent years. This has become an increasingly popular trend among Democrats as their party’s popularity plunges. But do not be fooled as these “moderates” still promote “progressive” policies. Hobbs has vetoed Senate Bill 1164, the Arizona ICE Act, which will make […]
April 20th, 2025 | Canadian Tourism to US Plummets
Armstrong Economics - Numerous nations have issued unofficial travel advisory warnings to deter citizens from traveling to the United States under Donald Trump.

April 19th, 2025 | Does Trump’s team understand a Trade War with China?
Armstrong Economics - QUESTION: How come nobody in Trump’s team can not explain to Trump that the Trade War with China will push the rates up? It looks very logical to me that if you are aggressive to China, they will continue to sell off bonds, and the sale of USA bonds will push rates higher. If they […]

April 17th, 2025 | Britain Ensuring It Will Join the European Great Depression into 2028
Armstrong Economics - While the press bashes Trump over the tariffs and trade war, they continue to ignore the facts and will always take the opposite position from Trump.

April 14th, 2025 | US-China Tensions Rise – Tariffs not the Concern

April 11th, 2025 | ActBlue Scandal – Democratic Party Funded by Fraud
Armstrong Economics - ActBlue is a self-proclaimed grassroots fundraising platform for the Democratic Party.

April 10th, 2025 | The Media Coup to Undermine Trump & Transform Republicans into Democrats
Armstrong Economics - Bloomberg has actually come out as proclaimed: “With the Nasdaq 100 already in a bear market, soon it may be the S&P 500’s turn.” All we hear are hysterical forecasts, all emotionally charged because the number one thing they taught in economics class was the Democratic propaganda from the 1932 election – Tariffs & Protectionism […]
April 8th, 2025 | China is the Auto Capital of the World
Armstrong Economics - China is the world’s largest car producer and exporter.

Armstrong Economics - PART II QUESTION: Is he breaking the London metals dealers’ hold to suppress the gold price?

Armstrong Economics - For all the criticism of Trump and the risk of a global trade war, as Macron wants to unleash a trade war to elevate France to the top of the EU, if we just look at the data, we can see why Trump has taken this approach. Even those Republicans like Rand Paul joining […]
April 3rd, 2025 | Tariffs are NOT Reciprocal
Armstrong Economics - How did the Trump Administration come up with these tariff rates? Why would a nation like Madagascar, for example, with a small economy, be hit with a 47% tariff? Reciprocal tariffs were determined based on America’s trade deficit with other nations. They took each nation’s trade surplus with the US by total exports and […]
April 2nd, 2025 | Japan, China, and South Korea Strengthen Ties Amid US Tariffs
Armstrong Economics - Tariff concerns have heightened to such an extreme level that China and Japan are discussing deepening ties. Donald Trump may be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for that one.

April 1st, 2025 | Are States & Provinces Destined to Default by 2034?
Armstrong Economics - You have to wonder why we have the most incompetent people in government, perhaps in history. While there is not a single leader in Europe who I would even want to have a drink with or shake hands, we see the same on the LEFT in the United States. No matter how often they […]

March 30th, 2025 | The Danger of Traveling with Gold
Armstrong Economics - Two men were pulled over while driving on I-20 in Texas, carrying $250,000 worth of gold bars. US law permits and encourages law enforcement to confiscate assets.

March 28th, 2025 | The Golden Visa Program Begins
Armstrong Economics - President Trump established the Golden Visa program to attract wealthy immigrants. The program will replace the EB-5 visa program, created in 1990, as a route to American citizenship for those willing to invest $1 million in an American company.

March 27th, 2025 | Canada’s Provincial Trade Barriers
Armstrong Economics - Several readers were surprised to hear that Canada imposes provincial “tariffs” or trade barriers that simply act as tariffs. Canadian politicians have been promoting a marketing campaign against US-imposed tariffs, but must recognize that their own domestic policy is hurting the Canadian economy in a massive way. Canada’s tariff rate on international imports averages 1.4%, […]
March 26th, 2025 | The Kallas Plan – Destroy Russia AND Europe
