Moral of the story: Rely less on government assistance and vote for less taxes and regulations.
I have purchased hundreds of items from Amazon and have yet to discover one of the items being fake. I think this problem is blown out of proportion by consumers who lack common sense or are proponents of further regulation of Amazon. I suppose the proponents’ argument is we have an obligation to these consumers who can’t differentiate between junk and non-junk because not everyone has two eyes and a brain behind them. Some people are blind etc. which actually is a fair point now that I think about it..

Amazon could require all sellers to send in their product for review to confirm it’s validity. This would add additional costs but the costs could potentially be offset from the positive response from consumers who have had issues discerning product realness.

I agree with your statement up until you point your finger at tax cuts. Tax Revenues are at an all-time high BECAUSE of the tax cuts. Look it up before making erroneous statements.

Wish there was a way to filter out ridiculousness from the feed.

Well if Trump get’s elected again then at least they will have jobs and be able to pay off their debt

Tax Revenue-to-GDP Ratio declined, Tax Revenue on the other hand has increased YOY. Perhaps read your source first before spreading false statistics.

What was your argument?

The tax cuts brought in more revenue than what the US would have brought in otherwise. The deficit is growing because of Trump’s liberal leaning on social programs including the military. There is zero evidence the economy would have continued to grow under Democrat leadership.
