TJ1001<p>Oh right, makes perfect sense now ….. I’ve been wrong all these years thinking a fair and just society, where we all pay a fair share would solve poverty and improve everyone’s lives.

He dealt it a heavy blow. The only economy risking to be crippled is the U.S. and Trump overestimated their importance. Yes, they are the most important market in the world. In total, however, the rest of the world is still bigger. Whilst losing the U.S. market is a heavy blow, it will not entirely cripple the other economies since they'll still do business with each other. The U.S., though, now risks doing business with no one. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/trumptariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trumptariffs</span></a></p>

JamesWNeal<p>You might want to think of the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/trumptariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trumptariffs</span></a> as some kind of alternative flat tax, since it looks like the rich are paying the same amount whenever they go to Costco or the hardware store, but I'm here to tell you, it doesn't work that way for the uber rich.</p><p>Say you want to buy a Rolls Royce droptail. Now, maybe you're OK as of today, but if not, you just get yourself a British mistress, put it in her name, drop in on your yacht's heliport &amp; anybody in Malibu asks, you just borrowed it.</p>
