Seems like tariffs are a way to impose a consumption tax in order to eliminate the more progressive income tax

It makes you wonder if the remedy would be to have a bunch of anti-maga kids join to change/sabatage it from the inside.

The hires rate was 3.2% in Oct, down from 3.4% in Sep, but unchanged from Aug.

3.2% ties the lowest post-Covid level and is comparable to sluggish hiring levels in 2013 coming out of the 2008 recession

4. Why would a U.S. private equity firm (Affinity Partners) owned by a U.S. citizen (Jared Kushner) need to waive governance rights to avoid review by the Committee on FOREIGN INVESTMENT in the U.S.?

Because Paramount knows that Kushner's company is simply a vehicle for foreign influence.

You can say that farmers want trade, not aid, and that may be true, but I do not doubt at all that once the bailout occurs most will continue praise Trump and wave their money in the rest of the country’s face to ‘own the libs’ or some such nonsense. The bail out is a bribe for continued support.
