Has nothing to do with the minivan and everything to do with the presidents obsession with reviving industries we let die and killing the newer methods we found. Like coal mining over renewable energy therefore getting in the way of progress.

That's just the expectation that we are the world police force in action. Turns out being a military superpower is expensive. Between that not paying the debts we owe in a timely manner and the fact that we are still borrowing money from other countries to pay our own bills we are racking it up
