WASHINGTON, Jan 18 (Reuters) - President-elect Donald Trump is poised to seize greater control of the federal government than any modern president before him when he takes office on Monday, charging ahead with plans to dismantle what he and his allies call the "deep state," according to two sources familiar with transition discussions.

The effort could get underway as early as Trump's first day as president, according to one of the sources, with an executive order aimed at stripping job protections from an estimated 50,000 career federal employees, allowing their replacement by handpicked loyalist appointees.

1. On the way to economic downfall................

and it will not matter how much money they have, cause the rich will economy wise be just like me.

If magas were "woke" plus D.E I., they would have understood the past history about the Great Depression and try to avoid it.

As to AI, there is a sci-fi movie called Forbidden Planet (1956) which in my opinion coincides with today regarding technology.

Rinse and repeat.

And, with that, a strong sincere competent, educated, compassionate person will hopefully come to the rescue like what happened in past history, well I'm hopeful.
