Joe Biden met yesterday with members of the Business Roundtable. When I first heard about the meeting I thought, "Wow! It's a meeting of everyone who got wealthy off communist China!" But here's what jumped out at me. Biden said:
"I think this [the current global crisis] presents us with some significant opportunities to make some real changes. You know, we are at an inflection point, I believe, in the world economy — not just the world economy, in the world. . . And now is a time when things are shifting. There's going to be a new world order out there, and we've got to lead it."
Well, here we go again.
Rahm Emanuel infamously said, "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. What I mean by that is it's an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before." And the Obama/Biden Administration used the Great Recession to expand big government.
When COVID came roaring out of the Wuhan lab, the left exploited it to destroy Trump's presidency and to expand the power of big government.
Now we're in a showdown with nuclear-armed Russia. We're facing foreign policy disasters all over the globe. Our alliances are frayed. Our supply chain is breaking down. And what is Joe Biden saying? "It's time to exploit this crisis, too," for the sake of a "new world order."
