You're meant to put your nsec there? What are the options in *other*?

Yeah nah the "opinion" failed basic logic checks.

Good on them. Because import tariffs "work" when they shift production onshore and less is imported. It's not about continuing with imports but somehow squeezing the foreign producer for lower profits.

That's probably true. So yes import tariffs don't work, but they don't work because they squeeze the American consumer instead of squeezing the foreign producer. I don't know where the idea comes from that you can squeeze producers especially from China. China doesn't make high margin goods, they have cutthroat competition on very ordinary products. A $1000 champagne bottle from France might be different but that's not the bulk of the imports.

"we're still paying"? yes onshoring the industrial base takes ages. and it's not clear import tariffs will stay high, what with this just being the president throwing a tantrum.

Of course import prices aren't down. Competition has already squeezed out all margins available. The idea of import taxes, officially, isn't to bilk foreign producers out of available funds they're somehow withholding. Taxes are meant to encourage local production that replaces imports. That, of course, is easier said than done.

No, I thought your were looking for something that may have encryption but doesn't need to If you want something publicly visible then why call it a "DM". What you want is just @ mentioning someone. My message here to you could be considered a public DM.

Yes it's that weird application architecture that re-renders everything, inspired by games. Forgot what it's called. Weird shit. Rust mobile developers like it because they don't use Android widgets anyways.
