Rough math is every American, rich or poor, old or young, is giving Argentina $100.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 90 points 4 days ago

Or, alternatively, every taxpayer is giving them $200. For reference this is almost three times the amount of his aid cuts from back when.

Why would the rich be part of this discussion? Not paying taxes, not giving loan to foreign countries.

[–] angband@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

More like the rich are giving 60$ and the middle class are picking up slightly more.

[–] SippyCup@lemmy.ml 11 points 3 days ago

Please, the rich aren't spending a dime.

The middle class is giving 100 and low income workers are on the hook for everything else.

That doesn't even account for China buying all future soybeans from Argentina instead of us. Massive economic impact, even if you never interact with a farm in your lifetime...

China was already buying 3x more from Brazil largely due to older trade disputes.
