so first you said 'wealth redistribution' is necessary to be a leftist and then you said 'Trump did it'. make up your mind.
as far as what i think (which doesn't much matter)
i was against the Covid relief checks initially but i understood that it was a worldwide pandemic and a unique situation. I thought each additional release of funds was ridiculous. and yes, i know it was started under trump.
a couple weeks after businesses opened back up, i went to a bar in downtown Easton. The bartender started making small talk and i asked if things had been slow. he said 'no, we've been busier than usual.' i said 'why's that, you think.' he said, 'there's a lot of rift raft that usually hadn't had money but now they got the government checks.'
as far as ag subsidies... idk. i frankly don't know enough about it. and there's a 'price control' factor in there to consider.
generally speaking, i don't most measures of wealth redistribution. nor do i think it's a prerequisite to be a democrat.
if it is, you're supporting my point that the left has taken a radical turn. so idk what your point is. thanks, i guess.
