There must be a sweet spot for support of the tariff increases.
On most of the sportsman pages I read that are populated by retirees and regular workin* folks (regardless of current admin support or not)
The fresh conversations overwhelmingly focus on how much worse off their lives are, RIGHT NOW, due to inflation, and the tariff impacts.
Back in March-April most of the retirees were screaming about the 20% loss of their retirement funds that they live on.
Between inflation, and the tariffs, and the Wall Street gyrations, it’s gotta be tough to be on fixed income.
Despite me falling into the age bracket that includes retirees, I have little sympathy. It is they who reaped the benifits of that came from previous misguided administrations. They are the ones who voted for, again and again, out of control deficit spending. If the measures to correct things partly fall harshly on them, well they asked for it.
It’s time to pay the piper.
