Regressive taxes are the name of the game. Tax the poors and get them pay for the government.

That is all tariffs are as well. A regressive tax that the poor pay. They had been trying to ram through a flat tax which would do the same thing for years and now they are doing it underhandedly with tariffs.

That is why the Republicans aren't throwing a fit, because it is secretly exactly what they have always wanted.
