Maybe one day a talking head like @acoyne will actually put in the work and try to understand the origin of the system, how today’s rural economies are proof that it is working, and avoid sensationalist crap like this. Wouldn’t hold my breath though.

NEWS: Trump's Canada threat proposes pushing the current 25% tariff category to 35%, per an official. But the expectation is the 10% tariff tier (which is applied to energy products etc) and USMCA carve-out would be preserved and not raised to 35%. The situation is still fluid.
