NO PRESIDENT TRUMP AMERICA WILL NEVER BE A THIRD WORLD NATION

NO AMERICA WILL NOT BE A THIRD WORLD NATION

By: Derek Varsalona


President Trump warned that if the Supreme Court ruled against his tax cuts and tariffs, America would become a third-world nation.  That is simply not true.  America is the richest country in the world.  A poor person has it horrible in the United States, but they do better than a poor person in another country that does not have as many or any social benefits.  The social benefits I am talking about include Medicaid, Medicare, food stamps, government-subsidized housing, etc.  I stand corrected, not sure about Social Security since you pay into that.


But President Trump is wrong that America will turn into a third-world nation if his tax cuts and tariffs are repealed.  It is great political posturing to say that, but it is simply not true.  The fact of the matter is that America remains the richest country in the world, despite its flaws.  


America will not become a third-world nation if his tax cuts and tariffs are not extended.  The only thing that will happen is that the safety nets will be extended to life expectancy, i.e., Social Security, Medicare, etc. The rich will finally pay their fair share, and the poor will get off cheating the system by paying nothing.  America will not be worse off if the Trump tax cuts are not extended, but the country will be more expensive to live in.  As always, comments are accepted.
