The Last Age of War, The First Age of Peace presents a powerful thesis: humanity is at the edge of a historic shift—from the destructive Kali Yuga to the enlightened Satya Yuga.

Automakers fear new cars will jump thousands of dollars in cost, up to $12,000 each .......... About half of U.S. imports are intermediate goods (which are assembled into final products) ......... The conflict within Mr. Trump’s circle helps explain this lack of a clear path forward. Three power blocs — MAGA populists, Wall Street conservatives and tech futurists — have very different opinions about how to achieve a stronger U.S. economy. ......... High-profile individuals in this group have been critical of tariffs. The billionaire hedge fund manager and Trump supporter Bill Ackman called the tariffs a “self-induced nuclear winter.” Before last week’s pause, Larry Fink of BlackRock and Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase warned that we were headed toward a recession — or that we might already be in one. ......... The third faction, the Silicon Valley-friendly types, includes Elon Musk and others who believe the key to American prosperity is about winning in advanced industries like artificial intelligence, biotech, space travel and green energy. They’re not necessarily pro-China, but they do want frictionless access to foreign talent and specialized inputs. They find tariffs that hamper global collaboration or immigration policy that may spook top-tier engineers to be dangerously shortsighted. ............ The populists demand a heroic manufacturing surge. Wall Street demands stable returns and tax cuts. Tech barons want advanced manufacturing but can’t abide the unpredictability of Mr. Trump’s tariffs. Reconciling these three factions requires vision, discipline and major policy coherence, none of which the White House has demonstrated. ........ for 10 percent, broad-based tariffs we would see 100,000 new manufacturing jobs, but we would lose almost 500,000 from the higher input costs.
.............. Modern manufacturing is high-tech and requires different skills from those of the 20th century. The focus should be on advanced manufacturing sectors where America can lead through innovation, not just protectionism: pharmaceuticals, clean-energy technology, robotics and semiconductors. ............. Second, it would invest substantially in the foundations for industrial competitiveness like education, infrastructure, research and development (like the CHIPS Act) and work force training. ......... Third, a serious strategy would recognize that alliances matter. Rather than needlessly alienate partners like Canada, Mexico, Japan and the European Union, a sound approach would build cooperative frameworks that reduce dependence on geopolitical rivals while strengthening ties with allies. .......... As the administration bounces between alienating allies and promising a manufacturing renaissance, Trumponomics looks less like an effort to forge a different future and more like a confused, self-defeating program and longing for a bygone era.
Why Trump Could Lose His Trade War With China
The Emergency Is Here
What if There’s No Way to Stop Trump’s Approach to Power? And how this could all go down in the courts.
