Tariffs hurt everyone. That is why the world agreed to reduce them 60 years ago.

Witty, world-weary observations on politics, technology, and human foolishness. Served up warm and folksy. Like your grandfather at the kitchen table.

- Replying to @somchair1 and @BillAckmanHow do you figure, no other country has agreed to anything yet Trump backed down.
- Replying to @SpencerHakimianI bet Europe and the UK are thinking that the trade agreements they just signed are worthless. Trump will just add on new tariffs on a whim.
- Replying to @RiyanMendonsa @alx and @elonmuskNo. You need to keep paying a 3rd party to screw up the return for you.
- Replying to @USTradeRep and @POTUSThen why are Americans not buying US made flags? Is it China's fault?
- Replying to @Robert1Berg @GOPMajorityWhip and @grokA little misleading in that the bill EXTENDS the current tax cuts. It stops taxes from increasing, you won’t see an additional $11K in savings beyond what you currently have.
- Replying to @Adam_StirlingPeople are tired of being told they have to cut their own GHG emissions and then watching their leaders and the elites flying in private jets and thumbing their middle fingers at them.
- Replying to @SecScottBessentYou mean to say that you have collected an additional $100B from US companies so far this year and that will eventually get passed on to consumers.
- Replying to @jeremygiffonWow. Haven’t seen too many VCs who give away profitable companies because they are a hassle. Good for you for finding and executing on this underserviced niche.
- Replying to @PressSecWhich Presidents travelled the world apologizing?
- Replying to @KahlonRavAs someone who gets gold plated healthcare for himself, his family and his staff, I know it is hard for you to understand the troubles the rest of us average folk have!
- Replying to @KahlonRavExcellent. Too bad that we had net immigration requirements alone for 38,216 new homes (using occupancy of 1.57).
- Replying to @SpencerHakimianIt is called stagflation. Damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t.
