The stock markets are being manipulated by Trump's tariffs. In a single day billionaires recovered $304 billion since the pause was announced with Musk's share of that being $36 billion.

Tariffs on China were increased to 125%. With the opposing ideologies of Musk and Navarro in his ears, has Trump managed to appease both of them at the same time?

They had lost $208bn. $96 billion in profit in a few weeks probably suits them quite nicely. But as we know, there is no such thing as 'enough' to a billionaire.

$96 billion is profit not enough. $6 billion in tax they would plead to be robbery.

The relative size of tax contributions is often calculated as a "percentage", which is a complicated bit of maths for which greek letters can be used. How does that compare?
