Tariff fever is a morph of the flat tax fever from a generation ago. The goal, of course, is to push as much of the tax burden on the poor and middle-class as possible. It's evil and unsustainable. Destruction of the middle-class is causing the death of pax Americana. But the 1%ers don't give a shit.

It angers me that the potential opposition block can’t get I together to make Trump’s life hell. I know, you say there are problems with that. I am just getting fed up with Trump screwing us over. At least stand up to him the way Mark Carney did, or accept what you must but expose him. Bending the knee inevitably makes things worse.
