[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Bannon wants to go back to the economic policies of the 19th century, I suppose we will see wildcat banks issuing their own currency again to compete with the USD. Which, of course, led to a series of major recessions and economic turmoil in the latter half of the 19th century.[/quote]
I guess he also forgot about robber barrons.  Maybe his real plan is to create another time period where robber barrons reign supreme and factory workers had zero protections.  He is from Wall St after all.[/quote]
I think it's pretty obvious that this Administration is trying to recreate a version of that period. Fewer financial regulations. No real interest in trust-busting or protecting American consumers. And dissolving the few remaining worker protectoins.

The Republican party has been trying to roll back a century of progress for the last several decades. The current President has put that effort on steroids.[/quote]
Bannon supports turning google and Facebook into public utilities

Cite? And I guess it matters what his view of public utilities is, given he also doesn't support the notion of an administrative state.[/quote]
