So this is Trump’s plan to make things more affordable?


I think he should quadruple the tariffs and then give all the poor people a million dollars each

So passing a law requiring everyone to have a product helps corporations that make that product? Shocking, I know, but there is more....

In that law, the govt will subsidize people to purchase the product that is required by law to purchase. And this will allow the corporations to raise their prices every single year....

Yep....It's almost like tariffs function like an actual tax, stifling economic growth rather than being magic money that allows us to eliminate the income tax, refinance our debt, and pay dividends to the poors.

Why would the DOJ send evidence of corruption to Congress? IOW, why doesn't the DOJ simply prosecute?

This looks a lot like "Deep State porn" than anything substantial.

Tell that to the people who attack me for being against those things. The things being cited in that meme are things that Trump has done/pushed. And I get called a "panican" by Trump and others here for not supporting them. The meme doesn't even cover all of them either. Such as government investing companies/business, which is socialist policy.

Then people like JD start claiming "the infighting needs to stop" which is basically just another plea for people who oppose those things to "get in line".

The most conservative members of congress are being attacked more than liberals. Trump and others are spending millions of dollars to primary conservatives in congress.

You are much further to the left than I am, I can guarantee it. I'd get rid of 95% of the federal government.


Well said. :cheers:

The mere fact that people are bragging about increased federal revenues that are the result of a tax increase is very telling.

Trump was running TRILLION dollar deficits BEFORE the pandemic


Nope. All of his deficits before 2020 were under a trillion.


2019 -- $980 billion...my bad...$980 billion isn't close to a trillion.

2020 Budget deficit without COVID spending $1.02 trillion

I can’t wait to hear how tariffs on other countries which are largely consumption taxes are causing mass layoffs. The majority of job cuts are government related and are you arguing against spending cuts?


Do you think that if we doubled or tripled the corporate income tax, that it would impact job creation?

I would hope that you would say yes.

And, if you say yes, then you can extend that logical conclusion to tariffs. Yes, it is a consumption tax and not an income tax, but it is still a tax. And, whether we call them tariffs, or whatever, increased taxes negatively impact job creation.

It's so frickin weird how people can think these tariffs are magic money that don't cost anything or have any consequences.

Gee, do you think having a once in a century pandemic where the economy was closed for months might have something to do with it?


Trump was running TRILLION dollar deficits BEFORE the pandemic, so that dog don't hunt. Maybe you should look at actual facts rather than go to your default setting of Trump can do no wrong.

How dare you question my pitiful analysis! When you say something stupid, you should expect to be called out on it. Just saying, "I refuse to entertain a counterargument," doesn't work on people who can think for themselves.


For the reason I stated above, if you willfully deny facts and reality, what is the point of debating? Trump ran trillion-dollar deficits prior to the pandemic. I didn't pull those numbers out of a hat, but it's the truth.

Exactly.

Trump's admin could have used one of the various other laws that authorizes tariffs explicitly, but they did not.


Because those laws do not authorize Trump to arbitrarily assign tariffs to the entire world. Yes these laws give POTUS authority to tariff, but only after a specific process is followed. That process would have taken years to authorize Trump to assign targets the way he did:
