Trump - Hard as Steel There is outrage over the nationalist economic policy of "America First." The parallels to the 1929 system crisis are obvious.

A Year of Trump and Right-wing Populism In the GOP tax bill, $5 trillion is given to households with over $1 million income. Seniors, the poor, children and students are attacked. The severe cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, HUD, Low Income Housing Tax Credits, SNAP, food stamps, WIC food assistance, Pell grants, the EPA, the Department of Education, the National Institute for Health and the Legal Corporation are sadistic.
