The administration is telling us that tariffs are the tool to a winning economy. And I’m saying, innovation is the tool!
I want to innovate my way to that future, instead of berating the American consumer who has to pay the price for this policy.

Technical question. Where, specifically, will the money collected from US citizens, by the US government, in the form of tariffs, actually go? One or more US Treasury bank accounts? A "Sovereign Wealth Fund"? Directly to Elon Musk's bank account?

Procedural question. I'm new to BlueSky, and can't figure out if there is something other than the "heart" emoji to indicate I agree and/or at least acknowledge a post. Most news items these days definitely do not warrant a "❤️".
