As the Tax Foundation’s Erica York quickly pointed out, about 150 million people make less than $100,000. She noted that sending each of them a $2,000 check would cost $300 billion, and Trump’s tariffs are only projected to raise $217 billion annually.

ngl but this atleast is some kind of wealth redisturbution, despite how stupid it all is.
rather this than handing it straight up to the billionairs directly, like usually
Billionaires only getting $300 billion to share amongst them? Don’t make me laugh. They don’t need pocket change. Come back to me when you are distributing $300 billion PER billionaire.
But it well all end up in their pockets anyway.
