    Yep, a shelter is a nice thing to have, even as a kooky guest bedroom. You are correct, way better off to be in in a much more survivable place, well away from targets.

    I once met a Canadian who told me he had his shelter somewhere around the Cariboo Plateau in BC. He figured it was idea from a range of factors.

    Elon Musk calls Trump's top trade adviser, Peter Navarro, a 'moron' and 'dumber than a sack of bricks'

    Well that's just fine since Peter is a main architect of the tariffs. If one moron calls another moron a moron that cancels it all out.

    China got the mass production of products right. No other country can match that. That said, it is all exploitative and most Chinese workers just earning a few dollars for what they manufacture over long hours. As a Chinese business owner noted, the US tariffs are going to result in him and others going out of business. If US orders fall by a lot, there is no capacity to absorb all their inventory which they must sell. No foreign market can match the US. We buy 1 trillion dollars yearly. China buys 300 billion worth of goods. A far 2nd choice. Reports now China ready to dump their cheap goods on Europe.

    Oh around the over/under that a young Buy1Sell2 used to walk around in his mother's high heels saying "I am a lady!"?

    Peter has already been under the bus, used to it by now.
