Unless my maths are off, if he have every American a cheque for $10k it would cost $2.5 trillion, and would also blow the inflation figure into space

Just remember that on the internet scum floats to the surface. Most people in the real world don't think like this.

Another quote from LBJ, when he was seeing smoke rise from race riots in DC from the White House window "If you hold a man down with your foot on his throat for 200 years, when he does get up he's going to knock your block off"

Exactly, and it's not just raw materials. The automotive industry uses many components that are made in Mexico. The way sub-components are are made in both countries in a just-in-time supply chain means some components will travel travel across the border in various states of assembly up to 8 times

Depends. If it's a textbook or non-fiction where I might have to keep referring to charts, diagrams, maps etc then prefer a physical book. For fiction and literature usually an ebook. For humour or other light stuff that I can listen too when I'm doing something then an audiobook.
