To the extent a repatriation tax holiday is the right thing to do, it should be possible to make that case in a traditional political environment where the legislators and executive are at least somewhat qualified to deal with it.
How healthy will it be for Wall Street (or anyone else on the West Coast) if the DoE is defunded to the point where they take their eye off the ball at Hanford?
Basically, what I'm asking is this: the markets love Trump. Why aren't the risks associated with gross incompetence priced in? I'm missing something, obviously, and that bugs me.
I don't claim to be especially "savvy"-- but with more than a third of the market value held "passively" (meaning investors in indexed funds), a lot of people have traded voting with their feet for a sense of security. Thus, there isn't actually a lot of pressure in the stock market reservoir to bubble back up to the Beltway. After reading yesterday's HN topic:

and the accompanying paper from Grantham, Mayo & van Oterloo:

Is there a source for this? It looks like the document is hosted via the FCC's electronic comment filing system API, but I can't find a news source for this at all.
For whatever it's worth, I think comments hosted on that server have a different naming convention; usually it's /file/<comment id>/<original submitted file name>.extension

...my pithy summary would be "Winter is coming."

EDIT: Case and point, look at the format for comments in this proceeding: https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/search/filings?proceedings_name=17-...
I originally had the same thought but couldn't find it after a fairly thorough search.
