So as I thought, Canada China and Mexico, have responded in kind to the US’s tariffs.

Americans bear in mind they are your three largest partners.

Also remember that we in other countries are used to tolerating price hikes and shortages, you however are not. Remember the oil crisis in the 1970s?

This is going to make for great tv.

If he cares for decreasing drug use, why pardon Ross Ulbrixht, a person who created a site to allow illicit drugs to be bought and sold secretly?

His take is senseless and of no goal. Never in the history of humanity did drugs stop being abused through economic pressure anywhere. The opposite. More poverty, more drug use and smuggling activities.

Coincidently, I have recently been to an African town where everyone owned 2 floor houses, but tried to barraged the road and tried to attack us out of nowhere like bunch of savages. It was random. After I inquired why on earth are they so primitive and insane, I was told they had well off lives when borders were opened through trade of every day products, which is why they built villas for themselves. When the borders got closed and tensions with neighboring countries begin, they started smuggling illegal drugs into the country.

I felt partly responsible for this.

@Miram I felt responsible for this because I supported policies to close the borders due to fears related to growing extremist factions elsewhere.

@Miram There are always unforeseen consequences to our votes. So long as we go to the ballot truly believing we are doing the right thing for our country as a whole and not just ourselves individually, there is no need to carry regret.

If our politicians were all-seeing, we wouldn’t be in the mess we found ourselves in to begin with.
