Many people forget that he is a war criminal.
But he did some great things in helping with AIDS epidemic in Africa. And although not a flawless policy, No Child Left Behind was overall good for American society.
But he also encroached on Americans' rights with the Patriot Act.
So... yeah. Not a great person.

Or the employer makes profit from the blood sweat and tears of the employee. It can be seen as both ways or a little bit of both. When most entrepreneurs die, someone comes in and fills the void. Everyone is expendable to a certain extent. Many business owners are true innovators to be sure but many also just got lucky along the way. Not a single one of them could do it without their employees.

Then why does the government contact the individual and not the employer when they calculate that there was either too much or too little tax remitted?

Because the goverment took too much or too little of your cut of the employers revenue.

“I will immediately begin the overhaul of our trade system to protect American workers and families. Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens,” Trump said.
I think I can just hear the wheels turning in an American Trump supporters head as they try to figure out how this will enrich them.

Did Smith negotiate for Mexico too? Laughable take, I think some adults got a hold of Trump’s ear for a few hours and then he forgot and blasted about tariffs again.
