Follow the Money, Not the Politics<br>
<br>
Every <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/election?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#election</a>, the same promises return—one side tells you to <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/WorkHarder?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WorkHarder</a>, the other blames <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Foreigners?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Foreigners</a>. But neither protects your wealth or future. Stevenson urges: <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/FollowTheMoney?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FollowTheMoney</a>. Who is buying up <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/homes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homes</a>?

This Fight Won’t Be Easy—But It’s Necessary<br>

The Immigration Illusion<br>
<br>
<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Trump?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> vows to cut immigration, but key industries like <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/agriculture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#agriculture</a>, <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/FoodService?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FoodService</a>, and low-wage <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/jobs?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jobs</a> depend on <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/migrant?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#migrant</a> workers. The <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/UK?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UK</a>’s <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Conservatives?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Conservatives</a> made similar promises but ended up increasing immigration to keep the economy running. Without a workforce to replace <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/migrants?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#migrants</a>, the U.S. will face <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/LaborShortages?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborShortages</a>, higher costs, and economic disruptions.<br>

The <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Tariff?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tariff</a> Trap<br>
<br>
History shows <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/tariffs?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tariffs</a> can work—but only when applied strategically. Countries like <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Japan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Japan</a> and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/SouthKorea?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SouthKorea</a> successfully protected industries, but broad, untargeted tariffs raise <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/consumer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#consumer</a> prices. If the U.S. lacks the domestic industries to replace imports, tariffs will cause inflation and reduce purchasing power, hitting working-class Americans the hardest.<br>

<br>
One policy Trump will implement is massive tax cuts for the wealthy, just like in his first term. <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Billionaires?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Billionaires</a> like Elon <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Musk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Musk</a> and Trump’s financial backers will benefit, while spending cuts will offset lost revenue, leading to job losses and reduced services. Even if taxes on workers don’t rise, their cost of living will.<br>
<br>
Why It All Fails<br>
<br>
<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Trump?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> ignores the core issue—rising inequality. His tax cuts, flawed tariffs, and unrealistic immigration plans will worsen economic conditions for most Americans while benefiting the ultra-rich.

<br>
Gary Stevenson, a former Citibank trader turned inequality expert, delivers a hard-hitting two-part series exposing why both left- and right-wing <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/EconomicPolicies?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EconomicPolicies</a> are bound to fail. After making a fortune predicting economic downturns, Stevenson realized that <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/RisingInequality?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RisingInequality</a> is the root cause of economic dysfunction. Now, he’s breaking down how mainstream policies—regardless of <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/political?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#political</a> affiliation—fail to address this growing crisis.<br>
<br>
In Part 1, Stevenson dissects <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Labour?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Labour</a>’s economic approach, which he calls “<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/ManagedSensibilism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ManagedSensibilism</a>.” Their plan? <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Borrow?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Borrow</a> a little more, <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/tax?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tax</a> a little more, and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/invest?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#invest</a> a little more—an approach that <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/economists?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economists</a> praise but one that has already failed in the U.S. and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Germany?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Germany</a>. While <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/GDPGrowth?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDPGrowth</a> and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/unemployment?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unemployment</a> figures look strong, ordinary people are struggling with rent, bills, and even food. The real issue is <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/inequality?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#inequality</a>—and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Labour?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Labour</a>, like <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Biden?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Biden</a>’s <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Democrats?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Democrats</a>, is ignoring it.<br>
<br>
Instead of <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/TaxingTheWealthy?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TaxingTheWealthy</a>, Labour will either <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/borrow?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#borrow</a> from them—an increasingly difficult task—or raise <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/taxes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taxes</a> on working people, making <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/LivingStandards?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LivingStandards</a> even worse. And with the <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/UK?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UK</a> in a much weaker borrowing position than the U.S., their strategy is set to fail even faster. The <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/rich?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rich</a> continue to absorb <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/wealth?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wealth</a> like a black hole, while the <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/MiddleClass?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MiddleClass</a> shrinks and the poor fall deeper into financial despair.<br>
<br>
