Why re-industrialization is just one piece of the puzzle to revitalize America | Julius Krein

The Nick Halaris Show

This week on The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring Julius Krein, the founder and editor of the American Affairs Journal. Julius is an incredibly deep thinker, a patriot, and someone who has dedicated his life to advocating for a better America. He launched the American Affairs Journal to provide an antidote to the dumbed-down, overly partisan forums of conventional media. On account of his eloquence and the quality of his thinking, Julius is fast becoming one of the most important public policy voices in the world today.

I wanted to have Julius on the show to highlight his important ideas about the decline of the neoliberal order and its impact on our domestic politics and the broader geopolitical landscape. He argues convincingly that we made a huge mistake in abandoning our productive capacity in the pursuit of ever-greater corporate profits and executive pay packages and is concerned that we are running out of time to right the ship. In this fascinating episode, we discuss:

• What motivated Julius to start American Affairs
• How the combination of extreme civic apathy and rampant corruption among the global elites has created a toxic, existential problem for global democracy
• Why the neoliberal order (think globalization and outsourcing) is a failed policy with potentially disastrous long-term consequences
• Why we lost the war on terror
• Why reindustrialization is just part of what we have to do to get America back on track
• & Much, much more

Stay tuned to the end to hear Julius’ take on why our nation-building efforts in Afghanistan proved to be so disastrous and learn what you can do to advance the cause of pragmatic, practical policy reform in America.

As always, I hope you all enjoy this episode. Thanks for tuning in!
