Remember when our republican friends used to pretend to be free market, laissez-faire capitalists?
I'm glad they dropped that ridiculous act!
"Today the Trump administration is announcing a $12 billion welfare-bailout plan for farmers impacted by Trump's tariffs."
"In spite of Trump's claims that tariffs are the greatest, and trade wars are so easy to win, the economic backlash was easy to foresee."
"Trump’s tariffs are not only a new regressive tax for Americans, but a policy of directly picking winners and losers in the economy. The interests of steel workers,
for example, are being placed above the interest of consumers and farmers. This leads to the government using tax payer dollars to prop up farmers.
Of course this spending means that tax-paying consumers are hit yet again, with their tax dollars being used for this new welfare program."
"The result is an economy that increasingly replaces the market with state control."
"I would spend every waking minute of my life raging against these welfare state handouts...if Trump was a Democrat!" ~Marco000 former laissez-faire capitalist
