Because taxation at this sustained level is unpalatable to americans. Tariffs would be a smart way to push that burden off if Gold was the money but since dollars are, it actually creates more interior inflation. To be fair, the world reserve currency is screwed and no matter what he does the dollar collapses under its own weight. A more accurate comic would be the fan being named "Economic Headwinds" and the piss stream being "doing literally anything" but it's funny nonetheless.
