    so rather than just pay a tax like a socialist country would up front, US is now only just surviving on tariffing …which is paid … by their own people ….as a tax. On top of whatever tax you already pay ……while digging more deficits.

      You know, I used to think that “our children will have to pay for it” only applied to the working class.

      Now I’m wondering if the people in power recognize how this might end badly for their offspring. I hope it does.

      There’s a 0% chance I’m going to slave away while some rich family’s children live like gods.
