Re: The Roots of American Working-Class Discontent
Oren Cass, National Review
STEVEN MALANGA
Destroyed for Nothing
The closing of GM’s Detroit plant—erected at the expense of a vibrant urban neighborhood—is a final twist of the knife in a tale of displacement and destruction.
The Hard Road to Conservative Reform
Should a post-Trump conservative politics seek to learn something from his ascent or simply aim to repudiate him?

Growth and Work
“Over the past few days, a very interesting and worthwhile debate has arisen among several thoughtful conservatives about growth, work, and prosperity. The occasion for it has been Oren Cass’s new book, The Once and Future Worker and its argument that work, and not just wealth, is a vital measure of well-being, and one on which our society has been falling short.”

What the Working Class Is Still Trying to Tell Us
“Working-class voters tried to send a message in 2016, and they are still trying to send it. The crucial question is whether America’s leaders will listen and respond. One way to start doing that is to read Oren Cass’s absolutely brilliant new book, ‘The Once and Future Worker.’”
By David Brooks

Conservatives and the Politics of Work
“Since election night 2016, liberal pundits have debated whether Donald Trump won because of ‘economic anxiety’ or ‘cultural resentment.’ According to Oren Cass, ‘these aren’t different things.’ The real issue, the Manhattan Institute scholar says, is work.”

How To Save Social Security Systems

Providing benefits to support a comfortable standard of living for retirees with just a modest rate of tax on the working population depends on there being a small number of pensioners relative to the number of taxpayers. That is no longer the case.

What the Working Class Is Still Trying to Tell Us
David Brooks, New York Times

I was ready for massive Democratic turnout for the election on Tuesday. But I was surprised how massive the Republican turnout was in response. The Republicans who flooded to the polls weren’t college-educated suburbanites. Those people voted for Democrats this year. They weren’t tax-cut fanatics. Half of the Republican members of the House Ways and Means Committee either left Congress, ran for other offices or were defeated. They weren’t even small-government Republicans. Read more here....

NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE:  RISING INTEREST RATES EXACERBATES FED BUDGETS, DEBT SERVICING & DIFFERENCES BETWEEN RED-BLUE STATES BORROWING

 Rising interest rates could add to budget woes
James C. Capretta | RealClearPolicy  
 
As the federal government closed its books on fiscal year 2018 at the end of September, interest rates were rising to levels not seen in a decade, signaling the possibility of further deterioration in the budget outlook for 2019 and beyond. James Capretta argues that the past year has been positive for the US economy but a step in the wrong direction for fiscal policy. As economic growth accelerates and the Fed tightens monetary policy, interest rates are beginning to resemble what they were before the financial crisis. Capretta believes that if current trends continue, the federal government will be forced to pay higher interest rates on borrowed funds, and budget deficits will widen accordingly. Now is exactly the right time to restrain projected deficits with reforms of government programs.

Bolton: National Debt ‘Threat to the Society,’ Forcing DoD Spending to ‘Flatten Out’
By Joe Gould, Defense News: “White House national security adviser John Bolton called the national debt “a threat to the society” and said Pentagon spending will “flatten out” in the near term.”

The Little-Known Fact That Will Make the National Debt Even Harder to Tackle
Dennis Jansen & Thomas Saving, E21

The federal government is skirting dangerous shoals with an irresponsible fiscal policy. We are running massive budget deficits in a booming peacetime economy. These deficits are increasing our federal debt—which means we are also paying more to service the debt and more interest on every dollar of debt. While the Federal Reserve has been covering a significant portion of those servicing costs since the debt started ballooning in 2007, Fed revenues are declining, so it won’t be able to shoulder as much of that burden. The result will be more pressure on Congress to put our fiscal house in order. Read more here....
