Let's just say that Pritzker did actually get the 8 bil. and that the 8 bil were actually used on the citizens of Illinois. That would just turn the tariffs into a kind of prepaid tax. The only sensible way to use this, would be tax pays for the next year, and still, that would not be a fair distribution

I'm interested in what 'further action' actually looks like, since rump would obviously never do it without being forced.

So only homeowners i.e. the upper class?

Make it per taxpayer instead.

He mentioned households and families, where are you getting homeowners from, let alone the upper class?

And, that's not my State, but I am a homeowner and I am definitely not fucking upper class. Finish your morning coffee and read it again.
