The Canadian government has insisted that information on domestic goods is readily available to all trading partners, even including nations that recently elected a felony-convicted game show host to be their head of state. Instead, the United States has decided to employ a rarely-chosen trade tactic that international economists refer to as the “fuck around and find out” model.

It's difficult. You don't work, you may not be able to feed your family. They're already detaining immigrants, and who knows what they'll do with political enemies. The riots are coming, but I suspect they won't come until the screws are tightened more. I heard there are going to be protests at every state capital this week. That's something.
