He is an idiot. The nation’s widening gap and shrinking middle class has more to do with our increasing love affair with fascism....government business partnerships. The US government since Reagan has aggressively advocated globalism and it’s free trade agreements, moving our industrial base overseas (even paying for corporations to do so) and the wholesale importation of cheap foreign workers in everything from sweeping the floor to IT positions. “Too big to fail” banks socialize their private crimes and bad judgement.

We haven’t had a “Reagan” free market capitalist economy for decades now.

Increasing .gov spending and cutting taxes is not a solution. The never cutters have been in charge for decades. Global wage arbitrage, offshoring, legal/illegal immigration, and other foolish ideas are merely the cherries on top of debt.

Discriminatory programs against the middle class, particularly the white middle class . . . school taxes, public hospital taxes, “diversity’ (i.e. non meritorious) scholarships, free this, free that, for the so called “poor” (i.e., minority), increasing state and local taxes, et al

All served to weaken income and net worth, offsetting to offset the much-needed income tax relief set in place by GOP Presidents

ButtPlug doesn’t have a clue. He’s as ignorant about taxes, finance and economics as he is about female anatomy

You are more ready for the presidency than Buttigieg. He simply doesn’t get it.
