I’d like to refer back to a couple of earlier posts of mine that … I think … may explain my view of, at least, the sales pitch we’re being given for what Trump is doing and why:
I get the vision that he’s selling us. I buy nothing in his approach, and put zero stock in the likelihood of any success that realistically outweighs the pain I see the country poorest Americans enduring.
Meanwhile, I see it as a redistribution of wealth from those at the bottom rung – always most hurt by regressive taxes (which this is) – to those at the top (via extension of Trump’s tax cuts) – the ones who basically decimated the middle class to begin with.
