The uber-rich is telling everyone else, "Don’t worry about your money. We are in the process of taking it from you, and when it is over, you will thank us. Honestly, there is nothing to see here!”
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Americans ready to retire aren’t worried about ‘day-to-day’ market fluctuations. Scott Bessent is a billionaire, so Scottie needs not worry about irrelevant stuff like retirement funds, savings accounts, or checking accounts because he has loads and loads of money.
One more Puppet Master, Scott Bessent, who paid lots of money to help elect Trump to office, is an arrogant, self-serving billionaire who is in charge of directing where and how the rest of our money is being spent. His hourly income, like that of Musk and the cadre of creepy Trump billionaires, is in the stratosphere, way above the average American annual income.
Mr. and Mrs. MAGA, you know you who live off of food stamps, your Social Security, SSI benefits, paycheck to paycheck, you may think that the stock market has nothing to do with you, but in fact, when it comes to a Recession the Republican ploy called “Trickle Down Economics,” actually does take place. The wealthy want to maintain their wealth, so prices of everything go up, way up. And if services that your Mr. and Mrs. MAGA need and take for granted will remain intact, they may disappear because those services may cost the uber-wealthy too much to sustain…and you, Mr. and Mrs. MAGA, lose.
And you were pissed that a carton of eggs cost too much!
