That increase is mainly due to tariffs. Whoever is in charge of tariffs can set a different tariff rate item by item. Much like Trump is currently doing. That's his prerogative, and could be high based on sectors he wants America to grow jobs. Or maybe a bit lower in the tech sector for certain electronics, based on the tech bros political donations.
They could just as easily be set higher an the plastic garbage us peons buy, because we are not smart enough to realize the added tariff we are paying is offsetting the tax breaks for the rich.
And just like that, we have "net new money". Like its free, just falling from the sky.
