"Why USAID Auditing and Tariff Renewal Are Crucial for American Taxpayers of All Races and GendersIn the grand scheme of government policy, few topics seem more disconnected from the average taxpayer than foreign aid spending and tariffs—yet these two issues are at the heart of why American workers, families, and businesses continue to struggle financially. While political and media elites push narratives that suggest progressive taxation is necessary for “equity” and “fairness,” the truth is that progressive taxation, foreign aid abuse, and free trade policies have systematically weakened the economic independence of all Americans.If you care about keeping more of your hard-earned money, rebuilding American industry, and stopping corruption, then two immediate steps must be taken: 1. A full-scale audit of USAID (United States Agency for International Development) 2. The renewal of tariffs on foreign goods to protect American industriesLet’s break down why both of these measures directly benefit you—regardless of race, gender, or political affiliation.1. USAID: The Money Pit That Steals from American TaxpayersMost Americans assume that USAID is a noble initiative designed to help developing nations through humanitarian aid, economic assistance, and diplomacy. In reality, USAID functions as a slush fund for corrupt foreign governments, multinational corporations, and intelligence operations that have nothing to do with benefiting American citizens.How USAID Wastes Your Money • The U.S. spends billions annually on foreign aid while American infrastructure crumbles and domestic poverty rates remain high. • Much of this money goes to countries that actively oppose American interests—such as Pakistan, where USAID funds have indirectly supported anti-American groups, or Ukraine, where billions in aid vanish into opaque financial networks. • A significant portion of USAID funds never even leave Washington, D.C.—instead, they go to politically connected NGOs, “consulting firms,” and defense contractors that profit from endless foreign interventions.Why an Audit Is Critical • We have no idea where the money actually goes. Despite trillions spent over decades, USAID lacks transparency and accountability. • Corruption is rampant. In Afghanistan, USAID wasted billions on projects that never materialized, while U.S. taxpayers footed the bill. • Elites benefit while Americans suffer. Instead of funding domestic industries, USAID props up foreign oligarchs, multinational corporations, and globalist think tanks.The solution? Audit every dollar of USAID spending and halt all non-essential foreign aid until it’s proven to directly benefit American citizens first.2. The Case for Tariff Renewal: How Free Trade Policies Have Destroyed the American Middle ClassFor over a century, tariffs were the primary source of U.S. government funding—not income taxes. Tariffs protected American workers, ensured a strong manufacturing base, and allowed the country to function without massive deficits. But after World War II, globalist organizations like the Bilderberg Group, the IMF, and the WTO pushed for the elimination of tariffs under the guise of “free trade.” The result? The gutting of American industry, mass outsourcing of jobs, and growing dependency on foreign economies—especially China.How Free Trade and the Lack of Tariffs Hurt All Americans 1. Job Losses and Lower Wages: • The 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) led to millions of American manufacturing jobs being outsourced to Mexico, China, and other low-wage countries. • U.S. companies took advantage of cheap labor overseas, abandoning domestic workers and causing wage stagnation for decades. 2. Increased Tax Burden on American Citizens: • With tariffs eliminated, the government needed a new revenue stream—enter the federal income tax. • Instead of taxing foreign businesses that profit from the U.S. market, the government increased the tax burden on American workers to make up for lost tariff revenue. 3. Dependence on Foreign Nations, Especially China: • The lack of tariffs on Chinese-made goods flooded the U.S. market with cheap, low-quality products, destroying domestic industries. • During COVID-19, Americans saw firsthand how dangerous this dependency was—from medical supplies to electronics, we rely almost entirely on China and foreign nations for basic goods.How Renewing Tariffs Benefits Taxpayers of All Backgrounds 1. More Jobs and Higher Wages • Tariffs incentivize companies to produce goods in America, leading to more jobs and better wages. • A manufacturing revival would provide stable, high-paying work—especially for working-class Americans of all races and genders. 2. Less Government Dependence, Lower Taxes • If tariffs were reinstated, they could replace the need for high income taxes, reducing the tax burden on working families. • Instead of taxing U.S. citizens to death, foreign corporations selling products in America should be the ones paying the bill. 3. Stronger National Security and Economic Independence • Tariffs would reduce America’s dependence on China and other foreign suppliers, ensuring we are not held hostage by international supply chains. • America should produce its own energy, pharmaceuticals, and technology rather than rely on adversarial nations.The Bottom Line: Stop Globalist Policies, Restore Economic IndependenceAt the end of the day, USAID corruption and the elimination of tariffs have both been used to rob the American taxpayer and transfer wealth to global elites. While progressive taxation punishes workers and business owners alike, the restoration of tariffs and an audit of foreign aid spending would immediately reduce government waste, strengthen the economy, and lower the tax burden on all Americans.It’s not about left vs. right—it’s about whether Americans, regardless of race or gender, will demand a government that prioritizes its own citizens first.Would you rather continue paying ever-increasing taxes to fund corrupt foreign aid and multinational corporations, or would you prefer a system where American workers, businesses, and industries thrive again?The choice is clear: • Audit USAID, stop funding corruption. • Renew tariffs, protect American jobs. • End progressive taxation, lower tax burdens for all Americans.It’s time to put America First—not globalist elites."~ Len Gilmerhttps://www.facebook.com/share/p/16ACGKnwB2/
