Everyone ITT is cheering but my retirement account has taken a fucking beating for the same reason. The billionaires aren't hurt by the stock market falling through the floor, it's their slaves that are. A year ago I had a chance at retiring a little early. I don't see that ever happening now.
Many good people in Ukraine don't have that problem anymore, because they're already dead as a result of Trump's decisions :/
And yes this isn't the most monstrous thing trump has done. Hanging Ukraine out to dry is unconscionable, but this post was about economics. The thing trump promised to be good about and he was believed. He's nuking our economy from orbit and no one can help us. It's as though he wants to hurt everyone "beneath" him.
He does. The 2020 election loss was a huge narcissistic injury and, as anyone with a narcissist in their circle knows, he’ll never get over that rejection. Everyone must pay.
Yeah, I know. I'm not saying my problem is the biggest. I am saying that billionaires aren't hurt by losing even large fractions of their wealth, but us normal people are, in tangible ways
