I don't think I can afford to prop up the wealthy any more than I already am doing now. Guess I'll need to get a fourth job to help pay off Musk and company tax relief.

Just work harder and become a billionaire smh

This is nothing, wait until the Trump tariffs kick in and everything gets more expensive.
Can't wait for shitty plyboard furniture to be marked up 489% because we got to import them from China/Vietnam or other SE countries.
Like seriously, what even gets made in the US that is reasonably affordable and is of a decent quality.
guns
While true, US guns aren't even on top anymore. Canik has become an unbelievably popular brand in recent years, and they're headquartered in Turkey.
damn I was unaware. guess I haven't done any gun shopping in a hot second (although that may change soon considering the way everything seems to be going in America lol)
you say prices will go up, all I can hear is it's going to become cheaper to steal.
The price at which it becomes a felony won't charge. You'd have to do it in organized groups like the raids in LA a number of years ago.

Um, have you tried just not being poor?
Just take more xhits on xhitter, that's seems to be how Edolf makes his fortune
Who would have thought he would do the same thing he did in his first term again?
Less than half of the voters, apparently.
Something tells me most of his voters have no idea what he did last time
Trump: "Hannibal Lecter is a fine man." jerks off two dicks
Trump supporters: "😍😍 He's gonna fix the economy and make America great again!"
They were all trying to figure out why Obama wasn't in the oval office for 9/11
Also no idea what he’s doing now
but at least now baby jesus will stop shedding tears because transgenders and intersex people can now be labeled with their correct biblical gender
that will make the poor religious folks happy at least, right? they don't need grocerries, baby jesus is happy the transgenders are suffering! delicious!
"A small price to pay to own the libs!" the drones say as they make boiled leather soup.

No guys it's cool it'll trickle down any day now just wait
Picture is incorrect. The bottom glass on the right should be cracking.
Bottom Glass on the Left. Cracking and potentially about to make it all topple over.
Yes.

Nobody in the US knows how marginal rates and progressive tax brackets work, you can sell the fools on anything and just blame the IRS because it’s the most convenient incarnation of what people hate.
It makes me angry when I see people talk about how getting a raise would be bad for them because it would put them in a new tax bracket.
Like dude, no, it won't be worse. Thats not how that works.

They raise taxes on the middle class to make people hate taxes so they vote for smaller government.
They’ve been doing it since the 80s. God how I wish our politics weren’t in a death spiral. It’s so boring.
Educate the next generation. My kids demonize taxes based off a short video but then get a quick education. Taxes aren't the devil, the rich dudes who aren't paying their share are causing your burden to be higher. Billionaires aren't always the enemy, but look at Amazon wages and it's an easy way to show them that hoarded wealth generally comes from keeping others down. It takes a bit longer, but elders are the only entity that can counter the bullshit they're being fed.
Billionaires are always the enemy.
You do not get to even 1 billion without causing massive indirect harm to a shitload of people. No one, no one, every, has put in enough to "earn" 1 billion. The vast majority of people will work their entire lives and be lucky to have a gross total income of a few million. Thats Gross, not worth or wealth, thats, "I took money in and spent it to live."
I would argue anyone worth much over 10 million is in the same harm causing boat as billionaires.
Billionaires aren’t always the enemy
Uh, yeah they are
wouldn't be billionaires if they were allies
