Biggest problem with the US economy at this point is that the rich-poor gap is dividing more and more and more; i.e. the top 2% of people and corporations are just getting more and more power. the fact that Donald is as rich as he is and seriously is suggesting taxing companies / the wealthiest LESS is absolutely absurd. HIlary is far too PC for my taste, but at least some of her interests will help the 'little guy' in society. Trump is after his own means. I wish there were more candidates in the middle, its a shame |
It is not just an US thing, it is worse in US because some big 'tech' companies are making money with less people. The biggest issue in the next years is not the tax cuts but what do if have a new category of people...the unemployable.
