Indeed. It might actually feel better if the Feds just keep the money as opposed to giving it back to retailers who passed costs on to consumers. Refunding just adds to the deficit anyway, its not like the Feds would cut any spending in other areas to pay for refunds. If there is any way to give the money to people who truly paid the cost of the tariff at the end of the day, I'd be all for that, but I don't know how that could be possible.

I went through some of Mencken's quotes today. Highly relevant to the state of this country. One caveat though - there were a couple of quotes about women and Jewish people that I found highly offensive. Beyond that, he shows a remarkable insight into the stupidity of the electorate.

Yes, but we have to consider the times. The world was a different one back then. And how long ago was American apartheid? And is it really gone, yet? The figures say no. And the map about women's suffrage speaks volumes.
