| “Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.” ― Frederick Douglass Sounds familiar doesn't it? Your thoughts on this quote. Your thoughts on what's happening in the US. Thanks for this prompt, Lyn. Donald Trump actually scares me. He’s tipped the whole world order on its head. He simply doesn’t care about anyone or anything except getting more money into the coffers. What is he going to spend all this new found wealth on? I don’t think he’s going to make the US a country which is going to be known for taking care of those who can’t afford medical treatment, or to house the homeless. Will he spend it on medical research to find a cure for cancer? No! He’s not a benevolent dictator but a dictator none the less. Everything that the US import into the country is going to cost more from now on. All the clothing which is made in countries such as Bangladesh, India, and Vietnam will all cost up to 50% more. People over there are going to lose their jobs, factories will close. I don’t think USA citizens will take up the slack and work for the same wages. China has been slapped with a 104% tariff! Imagine everything from China costing double? Australian beef 10% more. Mr Trump said today that two billion dollars a day, was pouring into the country from all the tariffs he’s slapped on every country in the world. What is he planning? Know one knows. Old people here in Australia have lost their retirement funds because of the stock market crash and are being forced back to work. So many lives are being affected negatively world wide by the actions of one man. |
