While Trump is arguing for his levying of tariffs at the Supreme Court level, the President has decided what he wants to do with that money in the mean time.

This morning, President Trump announced a $2,000 dividend for all Americans from the tariff surplus. - "People that are against Tariffs are FOOLS! We are now the Richest, Most Respected Country In the World, With Almost No Inflation, and A Record Stock Market Price. 401k's are Highest EVER. We are taking in Trillions of Dollars and will soon begin paying down our ENORMOUS DEBT, $37 Trillion. Record Investment in the USA, plants and factories going up all over the place. A dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone."

Better to cut taxes and cut spending and put some towards the debt.

There are indeed boundaries “beyond which one should not / could not go”.

And also are the many established, settled boundaries that have been contrived to keep folks in line, firmly planted on the plantation.

Beyond is the hope of 2000 years.

A good idea is to augment SS with tariff revenue. That would make SS solvent forever.

A better idea would be to pass a bailout, pay out everyone's SS account "balance", and then get rid of it forever!
