>But aren't tariffs a textbook example of the theory working in reality?
No.

Trickle-down economy fails because the percentage of their income the rich spend on everything shrink further the richer they get.
For example, if Elon would still be spending a quarter of his income on the same type of food items he ate back in his college days, then his spending would actually drive a vast part of the economy, from farmers, to cooks to plumbers. We'd be then using his money to renovate the infrastructure, just so that it could accommodate the enormous, multi-million dumps he takes three times a day. Instead, he spends it on Twitter and on pimping out virtual clone of his exes.

Which is why taxing the rich is good - they literally can't spend the money anyway and tend to start blowing it on dumb, sus and criminal stuff eventually.

>heavily genetically modified people
Not at all. The Clans take great pains to point out that they are only running an accelerated breeding program, not an actual genetic modification program.
Even the tiniest Aerospace pilot and the hugest Elemental produced by their are capable of breeding true with each other and with any other human being. They are still anti-transhumanist.

The actual, geniune "I can breath in space", Clan-derived Transhumanist faction, the Gene Caste, might not even exist as far as we know.

They say that them authenticating that this assemblage of commercial ink and paper are likely from WW2 can not be used to refute the Holocaust.

Imagine.

They're annual events, actually.

Frequently, the Blot, Pete and the Beagle Boys even team up. Sometimes the events are just them all getting together to stage child-friendly versions of classic dramas though.
