    The poor were already on the menu, when the money supply grows at 7-8% a year and they’re lucky to get a 2% raise, due to previous liberal immigration policies used to depress salaries.

    They still pay taxes in the end, and it will be far higher than it would be if we plucked the fruit of their labor now. Except the IRA thing but that cant be terribly common, and again Thiel took a massive risk by not diversifying.
