For those “investing” one billion dollars, Trump has promised to “expedite” all permits and reviews to get things moving quickly, which means there will be no regard for environmental impact or the effects on local communities from whatever projects billionaires want to do. This is NOT for small businesses – the benefits only kick in if you have $1 billion, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.   Link – https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/10/trump-vows-fully-expedited-permits-for-1-billion-investments-in-us.html Subscribe to stay connected to our stories: https://www.youtube.com/theringoffire Support us by becoming a member on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYWIEbibRcZav6xMLo9qWWw/join Or Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheRingofFire Buy Ring of Fire merch: https://www.buyrof.com/ Find us on social media!

Donald Trump gleefully announced this week that the United States is officially for sale, not even necessarily to the highest bidder. You just have to have $1 billion, and if you do, you can do whatever the hell you want in the United States. Here is what Donald Trump posted on truth, social. Any person or company investing $1 billion or more in the United States of America will receive fully expedited approvals and permits, including, but in no way limited to all environmental approvals. Get ready to rock, followed by three exclamation points because hell yeah, our public lands are our private property all open to anybody or any company willing to invest $1 billion to, you know, build a new factory or I don't know, whatever the hell they want to do. Drill for oil. This is insane and I'm sure conservatives are out there celebrating thinking, oh boy, can't wait to see all this investment in the United States. Right? Here's the fun part. Regulations exist not to be burdensome for corporations. Regulations exist to protect our lives. Whether it's regulations about whether or not you can dump all these toxins into our waterways or regulations about the kind of safety equipment you have to provide for your workers. They're all designed, every one of 'em to protect our lives. It's not meant to be this massive hurdles that, haha, we're making it harder for businesses to exist. That's not what regulations are. They're to save us, to keep us healthy, to protect us getting rid of those, expediting the approval, right? He doesn't just say, we'll give you an expedited review. He said, expedited approval. People will be poisoned as a result of this because the people who are gonna come in and invest a billion dollars are not people that are like, well, I always wanted to build a shopping mall for a billion dollars, right? Nope. It's not them. It's not the person that you know can cook a really mean pizza down the street that says, you know what? I've always wanted to open up a neighborhood pizza shop. They're not getting incentives, right? This is not for small businesses. This is for massive multinational corporations to come in here and destroy our country and our health in the process. That's what this is about. If he were saying, we will give expedited review for somebody that wants to build a small business, somebody that wants to invest a hundred Thousand dollars, I would actually be okay with that. That's a smart decision. Let's incentivize people to start small businesses. This ain't it, folks. This is opening this land up to the billionaires for exploitation. This will not end well for this country. It will not create the jobs that Donald Trump may think it could create. It's not going to help us in any way, and I can promise you that.
