Replacing taxes with tariffs? [View all]

This is a plan of disastrous consequences for the middle class and in return benefits the rich!

No taxes for the rich and billionaires, higher prices for the middle class?

The wealthy can afford the tariffs, because they pass on their costs to the rest of us.

Thus, middle class will lose money and benefits will be stripped from us.

This isn’t a good plan! It’s awful plan! Period!

I just have to wonder what idiot came up with this nonsense? It’s not Trump’s idea! He is to stupid to think he came up with this idea! But he’ll take the credit!

Even though, we need to watch what happens! This could happen in a blink of an eye!
