it’s not even capitalism at this point. there’s various definitions of capitalism out there, which makes it blurry and difficult-to-talk-about, but most of them feature some element of wealth maximization. in the current trajectory, nobody’s wealth is increased.
trump’s policies hurt not only the common people, but also the economy. if the common people have less money, they spend less on consumerism and that cripples the economy. that is actually what’s already happening rn. and it’s only going to get worse. we need handouts, so people can spend money.
