    WalMart says it must now raise prices due to
    the tariff wars. It managed for about a month,
    but now the price increases are hitting home.

    Note that a LOT of people shop WalMart ... they
    won't put up with this for TOO long. "Buy American"
    sure SOUNDS good ... until it costs you one extra
    penny ........

    That's why we're in this. We've spent decades defeating communism and sharing the American system and now, everybody else having figured out
    it works (some of whom are really good at it), we now have to contend
    with more and more competition over an incresingly leveling playing
    field.


    It needs politicians who actually use their minds. Businesses
    have been saying they do not need tax cuts to create capital.
    What they need are customers who have enough money to buy stuff.
    So Congress gives worthless tax cuts to businesses and increase
    taxes on people. Voodoo economics does not work. Republicans have
    been trying for forty years.


    We need average workers to get a bigger share of the profits they
    create. Labour unions once helped at that, but voodoo economics
    was paired with union busting.

    They system is totally skewed and worse, corrupt.
    Trickle down doesn't work, has never worked and never will work.
    For the most part the corporations take the profits and enrich themselves
    and their shareholders.
    The price of goods continues to rise anyway.


    We need average workers to get a bigger share of the profits they
    create. Labour unions once helped at that, but voodoo economics

    Bingo.
    We have a winner.

    Look at how much CEO salaries have risen compared to the average worker?
    Why?
    Because they can.

    Tax cuts should go to small businesses who used to be the bread and butter
    of the US. I'm not sure if that is true anymore.

    And AI is already throwing the working class a curve ball.

    There is so much wrong and if we don't fast track a "repair", we are
    ultimately doomed.

    Lastly a far left socialist, some would say communist system ala Bernie and
    AOC is NOT the solution.
