America Voted For Chaos. The Markets Are Feeling the Punch. - Dumb disruption: “Disruption can be a positive force. But over the last decade, it has become a hand-wave that forgives and excuses irresponsible governance, poor decision-making, and financial incompetence. The reason you can’t run the government like a startup is simple: 90% or more of startups fail. That’s a risk threshold that should be unacceptable to anyone serious about the responsibility of America’s stewardship. Productive disruption in the context of an economy or a nation is possible. But there is no evidence of anything productive in Donald Trump’s current approach to economics. Just more deliberate and collateral damage, more flagrant disregard for common sense, and more policies designed to shake things up while shaking the monetary baby to death."
