Regression to the Mean....Not if Trump wins!

     As we start the 4th quarter, both sides are showing bravado and fear.  The two boundary quadrants, far right and far left , are hopelessly marooned in Capitalism Forever and Social Justice Uber Alles, respectively.  The middle quadrants, a meandering blend of emotions and reason, are legitimately terrified about domination by either extreme.  Is there a comparative marker that tips the scale in favor of the least damaging of the disappointing options?  I think so!  And, it has nothing to do with whether next year, we are living in Trump's GNP obsessed reality or Biden's, BLM dictated reality.  My sense is that the "tipping insight" is simply Trump's personality. 

     If Biden/BLM wins, it will be a nightmare to prevent the emboldened Social Justice crowd from selling California to fund a $100 trillion BLM "reparation plan", but like the weather, it will not happen, and we will titrate down from our Social Justice High and settle somewhere near the mean, but

     If Trump wins....well, we would probably be all right if his detractors would let him have his way.  Yes, he might "funeral out" with $100 billion, and Ivanka might step in to pinch hit, and reparations might have to wait a while longer, and we likely would have a lot more prisons, but so what!  We would likely be a cohesive "nose to the grindstone" ranked competitor in the "World Domination Games"....but the more integral elements in our culture, taking expression in the media/press, they will not leave him alone.  And, herein lies the "extinction scenario". They will unrelentingly torment him and he will uninterruptedly counter with authoritarian abuse. Expect a war that can only ends in mutual annihilation.

     A recent twitter comment said it succinctly:  Big picture: we're up against a corrupt vulgarian who will bring it all down to maintain his power and wealth.

IF TRUMP SURVIVES, WE ALL LOOSE
