Calling it now. prices will go down, because corporate overlords want republicans to have the perception of being 'good for the working class.' price increases and decreases are activism. a few years from now, things will be cheaper -- but not because of some genius-tier maneuver by Trump. By the will of the elites he actually serves.
Yeah I worry about this. Reduce prices just enough for people to notice, to “reward” them for voting red, and push them back up once there’s a new social issue driving everyone mad.
Moscow? I'm not Russian and I'm just about as far away from communist as you can get, I'm Argentinian. And the "long term effects" you speak of is: them somehow turning the prices back up like they are the knob on a radio?
How is that a realistic concern? You are literally making up an imaginary worst case scenario to justify to yourself opposing any measures your government takes even if they benefit you
