    I burned through some shoe-leather to get her elected. Literally.

    Her solution to every problem seems to be to find a new #regressivetax; the transportation bill is a corporate giveaway; actual road damaging users will pay *less* and not more, instead we get #fees and #tolls on those who can least afford them.

    Tax truck tires by the pound. Basta.

    logic is not their strong point and they are hoping that nobody will notice.

    keep it simple, #Tariff are a #tax on the people of US . We should be calling it the "republican tariff tax" #RTT.

    It's like the income tax only its on what you buy not what you earn. Not any different than a national sales tax.

    It is also a #regressiveTax, what you pay, as a percentage of what you earn, is higher on #poorPeople

    It also allows other corps to raise the price of their goods.
