It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries. If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that? The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff
