I do need to rethink my belief that corporations ARE government. That cannot be entirely true, the imposition of the tariffs is proof. Unless someone can demonstrate how America's big shareholders, its old money and oligarchs, will somehow profit. Right now I don't see it.
Putin must be so happy , his tasks are being carried out exactly as he ordered , and Russia is the only country with no tariffs.
I was thinking about that curious exception. Is it possibly because of the sanctions already in place? I mean, giving Trump the benefit of the doubt...
If that is the case, why is IRAN on the tariff list? They've been on the sanctions like forever, and yet they got smacked with 10% tariff. What about SYRIA? Just WTF?? What exactly did they sell us (and apparently ripped us off) that earned them that coveted place? As if they had anything to sell in the first place. That country was in a bloody civil war since 2011!!
Good points. I was enjoying an article earlier about the price of coffee, and the absurdity of thinking its production could be "onshored" to the US.
Forgive me if your vote for a wierdo criminal leaves me unimpressed with the quality of your decision making re who would be best to run the administrative branch of government...
Is it necessary to point out that a vote for Stein, or anyone else other than Harris, was a de facto vote for a wierdo criminal?
It's pretty well known that millions of dems stayed home because they objected to "Biden 2.0", which Harris actually was saying, to comfort us, she was going to be. Gaza was a part of that.
