Seems like Trump is trying to get rid of the income tax. He can’t just do that with an EO order though, congress has to do it.

He can do all these tariffs though, which will act as a quasi sales tax. And when everything starts to become more expensive, which will be blamed on something else, he will say he’s not removing the tariffs and congress should just get rid of the income tax to help people. He will say, look we are making so much money off tariffs and we have reduced government jobs by so much, we don’t need an income tax anymore anyways!

Since this involves the murder of a high-ranking CEO, rather than an ordinary joe schone, the police might resort to unconventional or potentially illegal investigative methods to track down the suspect.

CDs were sooo much more expensive than streaming. I would spend $12 to $18 per CD in early 2000’s dollars and buy multiple CDs per month.
