The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Who's really winning in Trump's economy? Coastal liberal elites who hate him."

"Trump's tax and economic policies have mostly benefited fancy-pants elitists in the super-liberal Northeast and on the West Coast.
Ordinary working people in the so-called red or flyover-country states in between? Not so much."

"We estimate that 87% of the gains from Trumps tax cuts accrue to the top 10% of earners, and 13% of gains flow to the bottom 90%.
These benefits are disproportionately concentrated in the Northeastern and Western regions of the U.S., particularly among workers in large, high-income cities."

"Meanwhile, the people suffering the most from Trumponomics right now are people who drive gas-guzzling pickup trucks long distances and who eat a lot of steak. Most of those folks don't live along the Acela Corridor, or in places like San Francisco. They live in heavily Republican states."

"Sure, my grocery bill doubled and I had to sell my mahjong set just to buy Halloween Candy, but knowing that a vegan tech bro in San Fran is getting a massive tax break on his yacht fuel makes it all worth it, that's how we owns the libs! MAGA!" ~LurkerMo
