This staggering $1 trillion surplus isn't a triumph of economics; it's a glaring testament to the grotesque inequalities baked into the global capitalist system, where wealth accumulates at one pole while the other faces exploitation and deprivation. Trump's tariffs were a band-aid on a gushing wound, failing to address the core issue: a world economy rigged in favor of corporate giants and against the working masses. It's high time we dismantle this oppressive system and rebuild one that values people over profits.
