Why yes sir I would not object
I'll believe it when I see it.
When the tariffs cut in
The trick is that they won’t
This alone could be good, (though they should only eliminate it on slabs of, say, <$60k), but they will combine it with austerity so that it is net regressive for the poor, the tariff shock doesn't help either.
Also, doesn't Congress set the rates and slabs?
1000%. If this becomes the hot topic among your coworkers, insist on bringing up the simultaneous cuts to social and welfare programs. Trump doesn’t give a shit about the poor or even non rich
This week, a coalition of twelve states, led by the attorneys general of Oregon and Arizona, filed a lawsuit seeking to block the tariffs imposed by Trump, arguing that the tariffs are “illegal.”
The lawsuit aims to block the imposition of a 145% tariff on most products from China and a 25% tariff on most products from Canada and Mexico, important trading partners of the plaintiff states.
Now do it for Chinese EVs. The American people need relief
It'll never happen and Trump doesn't actually want to do it. But if he did and it passed - the dems would be hosed.
