Tariffs and Potential Inflation

Forward to 2024 Yellen:

“When the markets weaken, prices fall, [and] it’s our firms that go out of business. … Chinese firms continue to receive support so that they remain in.”

Follow up with an Obama Administration member of his National Security Council, Evan Medeiros, a Georgetown University China expert;
“It boils down to the fact that the economic juice [from cutting tariffs] was not worth the political squeeze”
All of that can be true. And the result this time may be unexpected. Like I said, supply chains are different now than they were pre-covid. But you still haven't answered how tariffs on Canada or Mexico help Americans.
 
A bit of a non sequitur, but I just ordered "American Politics: Promising of Disharmony" by Samuel Harrington circa 1980 - I look forward to the read. I have previously suggested "Left Behind" by Charles Murray circa 2012 was an early foreshadowing of our current political state. But Mr. Harrington may have been prescient decades earlier.
 
University system went that route after 2008.

Think we lose more money and productivity now due to TP induced workman's comp claims.

I keep Charmin in my desk.
I keep a half a roll in my lunch box at all times. That port-a-shitter paper ain't no joke. I've lost layers of skin I don't think I'll ever get back.
 
The worst part of the portashitter experience, is the cannonball splash. The single ply disolves into a wet blue glob after that!
I call that getting smurf balls. Don't get me started....most days I just find a place and hide behind the machine out of sight.
Rookies!
You gotta spin off some of that single ply garbage and drop it down in there before you make a deposit. It will change the surface tension of the blue water and prevent the splash.
Nobody needs to join the blue man group.
