How Tariffs Work

Most of the money from these tariffs will come from essential goods, such as food and clothing.

The money collected by the government will be then mostly given to the already well-off, the #PamperedSUVclass, and wealthy retirees.

Because this is how #Republicans think they can win elections.

The poor and working class are getting totally screwed, and must be motivated, convinced, helped to #VOTE the #Republicans OUT.

If "the border is closed" where are all the workers who will pick vegetables and fruit, roof buildings, pave highways, fling burgers, dig ditches and take care of the kids of the regular working class and the #PamperedSUVClass going to come from?

Unemployment is at a record low, and without this huge pool of workers willing to do jobs Americans refuse to do for crappy wages, the economy will collapse from the bottom up.

Wanna talk wage pressures and inflation?

Anyone thinking about that?

#Capitalism for the #PamperedSUVclass

#IndenturedServitude #Feudalism and outright #Slavery for the rest of us.

And so it goes.

Not a popular opinion, but I'd say include high speed rail to this equation as well.

It's not NIMBY as much as it is class based.

Not many poor and working class folks will be riding super expensive inter city rail. Inner city mass transit just isn't as sexy and cutting edge to excite the #pamperedSUVclass

The good of the hoi polloi plays 2nd fiddle to the aesthetics of landed wealthy. Same as it ever was.
