The Hidden Cost of Tariffs
While tariffs bring in government revenue, they also raise prices on imported goods — from electronics to clothing to auto parts. Those higher costs are often passed directly to consumers.
That means Americans are, in effect, funding their own dividend checks through higher prices at the checkout counter.
Economists warn this creates a cycle:
- Tariffs raise prices
- Consumers pay more
- Government collects more revenue
- Government sends back part of it
- Inflation risks increase
Investor Kevin O’Leary recently called the idea of tariff-funded checks a “short-term band-aid” that could worsen inflation rather than solve underlying economic problems.
Wake me up when the funds are in my account,until then,SHUT UP TRUMP!
i get 1099..00 a month when i lost my job in 2015 since i couldnot perform my duties after 2 back surjuries i couldnot stand long without my sever pain lower back
Just buy more ink for the printing machines and start printing.
,Here’s an idea..1. Have the govt pay back every cent they’d taken out of SS by reducing or cancelling all funds going to other countries, then raise SS for seniors by 10% per month and veterans by 15% per month. You could also raise the salaries of all active military personnel in battle zones by 10% per month. Then institute a yearly tax amount instead of all the deductibles etc and just make it 5% for everyone earning under $100,000 (not including SS) and 15% for those earning up to $1M per year, 20% over that. Then push for every state to abolish property tax for seniors and veterans, and establish a $500 credit per year for vehicle registration. Reduce property taxes for new homebuyers for first 5 years and give tax credits to single parents earning under $100,000 per year. Give every person who adopts a wild or endangered animal a $500.00 per month care bonus with lifetime care contract.

Its just like everything else you promised listen were struggling and the only time you care is when it comes time vote or go fight in your wars . What a circus if you really care youll find a way to give that 2000 to us especially when you all embezzel tax money that we the people pay on everything tax,tax, tax, about time we all pick up and go live in a different country
What about people who are retired and don’t work?
What about Seniors who make less than $3,000+ a month, and are not a Homeowner, don’t have a car to get the Auto Insurance, or the other benefits that are mentioned in this email. Most of us Seniors struggle and could use another Stimulus Check or 2. President Trump, you want to help America, help those in need; Seniors and the younger people that are living on Welfare and Hud homes. Prices are so high and we all struggle. Please try to set up Stimulus checks again for the middle and low income USA Citizens.
Thank you,

Would be great for retired people, living off the SS check. An extra $100 would help each month.
