I realize that but you hear about very quick 'stabilizations' and
then the people sent on their way with instructions to head for a
state hospital for further treatment, and occasionally not making
it very far. I'm sure like with most things you can't paint them
all with the same brush but it's the bad ones that make the news.

RM>> Trump's popularity is dropping, is it?

MP>Depends on who you listen to.  Poll numbers are down, but others (i.e.

You'll always hear that from supporters but I suppose it's not
all that critical as, barring a miracle, he will be gone in
not much more than 3 years.

No, he's up here in the Toronto area, but he's probably as close
to a Trump fan as you'd find in Canada..

I guess time will tell how well this is working. Gas prices dropped
some up here too so maybe can't be used as proof the plan is working.

It's not quite a trickle down. If Trump puts a 25% tariff on a product
coming into the USA, your cost to buy it instantly goes up by 25%..

A Tariff is just another word for a Tax paid by the consumers..
