never before has a POTUS made such an affirmative action to personally help America.....
All profits from foreign transactions will go directly to the treasury....
Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country....
That is part of a plan to avoid conflicts of interest under the new administration. Reports of foreign diplomats staying at Trump's hotels have raised concerns that these individuals could curry favor with the incoming president.
why the rich can get richer while the poor get their wealth taken away, through means testing.
Er..umm.. since when have the poor had any
wealth to take away? The poor remain poor while the "rich" get richer thanks (to name a few) to the distribution effects of inflation, government over-regulation of the economy, crony capitalism and government programs which incentivize remaining poor not because of means testing entitlements.
means testing means they can't keep their bonus while on social welfare; corporate welfare lets the rich keep their multimillion dollar bonuses, even with means testing.
You're clearly confused about what means testing is and what it does.
Means testing is simply a cap on social welfare subsidies so that those with sufficient incomes do not milk the tax payer any more than they already are being milked by an inefficient and corrupt welfare state.
You remove those caps and you'll
completely dis-incentivize the poor from ever becoming self sufficient while incentivizing every American (including the "rich") to grab every tax payer funded subsidy they can get their hands on, regardless of how much income they have, as it stands now the poor (those below the poverty line) only see around $0.13 of every subsidy dollar paid out, your proposal would SIGNIFICANTLY reduce that number.
Corporate welfare is a completely separate issue and personally I think every penny of it should be done away with since it's the foundation of the crony capitalism that we're suffering under.
