Its more complicated. We are witnessness various factions (grey/white through black) try to maintain control via all kinds of means (AI/surveilance/financial/black ops tech like time manipulation etc), and to hedge against all types of 'wild card' events they can't fully predict - ET, geo, econ collapse, Carrington, etc. The theme that runs through all - this point in the timeline brings a major shift in humanity. All mystery schools know - preparing appropriately for the Nigredo is how you know the quality of what gets reborn on the other side.
@grok@creepydotorg@grok lolololol clearly AI still can't grasp sarcasm. And its called POSING. No one sees that and thinks 'authority'. Confidence - yes. Common trait of a narcissist. Who are actually very weak internally. So I'm going to say I'm more right than Navarro.
@grok@creepydotorg@grok DISagree. I think it means that subconsciously, they are all giant pussies, compensating w/ 'strong man' tactics, desperate for external validation.
@OMApproach Choice: reptile brain survival in the middle of nowhere waiting for an uncertain future based on fear OR live a full life in a CITY or whereEVER your life opportunity is, in full faith, and die when its your time.
@X22Report sort of like how they let everyone watch the 2020 election be cheated in real time? they came down HARD on that huh? How do you think Massie got knocked out? Its all lies.
@RedpillDrifter and now the poor will pay the bulk of all the taxes via higher prices from tariffs w/ consumption, while the 1% get a HUGE, absolutely HUGE tax break. just elitist marketing wrapped up as 'freedom'. and I'm 100% pro tariff btw.
No worries at all. I'm all for trying something new, just something simpler alone would be a win. That said, I'm not sure you addressed my point about pass-through costs. I like the idea of tariffs, don't get me wrong - in terms of trade equity and domestic production protectionism. But I'm not going to be blind to the fact that the way the tariff as government funding is set up is still likely to shift the cost burden to the lower class through higher prices while reducing tax burdens on the 1% significantly -who already own far too many assets, and subsequent political influence, for a healthy social order. In other words, its not a free meal - its just marketed that way. What people don't pay in income taxes, they'll pay in higher prices instead, and likely more than they do now.
Explain the math like I'm a child. How is this not just shifting things for PR? The gov has the same budgetary needs, if the money all comes from tariffs, and one's that protect corporations, then that gets passed on to the consumer right? Companies can't absorb the entire tax burden of the US, or even a significant fraction(nor would lobbies allow it). And on top of that, its essentially regressive. Meaning that the poor will pay a larger share of their income towards the new gov income (tariffs passed on as price increases), while the very wealthy pay less (despite consuming more, most real wealth is electronic and outside the scope of tariffs). I'm all for getting rid of the IRS, but not in a way that continues to increase the wealth divide, and that masquerades as some gaslighting bullshit. The only advantage I can think of here is it saves time from having to file taxes. Other than that, its just a clever shell game that dumps the tax burden on those who can least afford it. But I'm VERY open to be convinced otherwise.
@X22Report And here I thought the US was energy independent already. I mean, THATS what HE said right? RIGHT? So there IS ANOTHER reason why hes there...
@X22Report Leverage = Derivatives. Which is the basis of all falsehood and lies. Affront to nature. Insult to god. Trump is a gaslighting POS who will manipulate anything to stay in power.
@susan_sutt55410@Prolotario1 No. It doesn't. The entire point of incarnation here is spirit is more powerful than blood. You're better off as an advanced spirit in a chud meat suit, than some ET/hybrid/fake jesus one. Growth goes off the charts.
