At this point, I actually think its the US. Russia is affecting a few million peoples lives in a major way with their war, but the US is about to destroy hundreds of million lives in their own country.
It doesnt work like that. Most billionaires dont have billions of dollars in the bank. Their wealth usually consists of stocks, which would lose their value.
Even as a conspiracy theory, it doesnt make sense what theyre doing.
Will Scharf, a White House official, claimed the new car tariffs would result in more than $100bn in annual revenue to the US
I dont understand how this is supposed to generate 'revenue for the US'. The money will come from their own citizens, so its basically a tax increase. Are taxes considered 'revenue for the country'? Its not like the money comes frot outside the US.
