Gas, electricity, steel, wood, medicines, so many different foods, untold production products. Everyone will feel the increase due to Trump's tariffs.

What is the point if we don't fight? Because there is still so much to fight for.

If you are a small to med size business, would you rather buy health insurance from the big insurance companies, or from a new Non Profit Healthcare program offered by the biggest Unions ?
