There’s better ways to get money to the workers than trickle-down economics. We’ve seen over and over that just giving companies shittons of money doesn’t result in better conditions for the workers, since it just gives them more ability to lobby for weaker worker regulations.

Can’t buy up or collude with Chinese competition, since they’re producing it for their own use rather than profit.
