as stated many times before, rare earth mining isn't a major issue, capacity to process into something useful which requires tons of water and toxic chemicals is the real issue for the US since China controls lion's share of the market.
Generally correct, low income digital creators will benefit the most since "No Tax on Tips" will reduce their taxable income by 50% or more in comparison to someone who earns close to 150k which isn't a low income according to BLS as you pointed out.
"No Tax on Tips" meant for low income taxpayers so most of the major digital creators won't qualify.
Low income digital creators can deduct upto 25k in tips, so if their income from tips and other sources is below $150k a year, their taxable income will be 25k less.

After victory in WW2, we had Operation Paperclip when we brought thousands of Nazi affiliated scientists to work for us, the whole premise that scientists fled Nazi Germany is very shaky. I just don't believe so many people don't know the history...
This article doesn't talk much about mass hiring during COVID period due to high demand, what we see now is unwinding of that trend, feels like people behind this type of narrative are interested in regulating what goes into these models.
I find the whole discussion here that Trump is Hitler propagated by our government is quite amusing, yet again reaffirming 1960s, 1980s, 2000s were inconsequential. Asch paradigm still dominates our reasoning after so many years of grinding for liberal values.
This is done to curb the inflation caused by military spendings and low unemployment rate. Yes, this is net negative for projected economic growth but considering historic record of oligarchs in Russia who would invest in foreign economies instead of Russia during peace time, I would argue for Russia it is net positive development assuming massive western sanctions stay in place.
