Tariffs are really meant to increase demand for domestic production, but that can only really happen if the production exists domestically to begin with.

The president has 34 of those.
Can’t be that bad
First, assume a spherical resistor in a vacuum, that can also dissipate heat with 100% efficiency.
Now that we’re in physics land, anything is possible.
Like when safety at work asks what steps to take when you see an electrical fire.
“Fucking big ones” apparently isn’t a good response
This has the plot of a CBS show.
19 year old hacker kid gets contracted to work for the government because he’s “the best”
Except this is the real world where 19 year olds aren’t good at much of anything beyond learning that dating sucks and unlimited masturbating is fun.
Guarantee you this kid got hired because he can use ChatGPT to generate code that barely does what he wants.
Also guarantee you this kid is also the target of honeypot stings from every intelligence agency outside of America, plus maybe a few inside, and he will fall for it and divulge dangerous information.
Everyone who isn’t a prick chooses work at other airlines.
The number of issues United has is indicative of severe cultural issues within the company. Toxic work culture drives good, compassionate employees away and leaves only the people who thrive in toxic environments.
I kind of want to find one of these people and go to shake their hand to say hi.
Will they shake my hand?
What if while shaking I speak like one of those narrators in drug commercials and say “by shaking my hand you agree to give me all of your income past and present”
Maybe the impact from landing will just force it out of you like that 1800s invention of putting pregnant women in centrifuges to doing the baby out.
You know, none of the “AI is dangerous” movies thought of the fact that AI would be violently shoved into all products by humans. Usually it’s like a secret military or corporate thing that gets access to the internet and goes rogue.
In reality, it’s fancy text prediction that has been exclusively shoved into as much of the internet as possible.
He’s also balls deep in a government that is obsessed with deporting immigrants.
Elon himself was an undocumented immigrant for years, as he violated the terms of and overstayed his student visa.
Genuine question though. If the ultra wealthy use loans against their stocks for cash, does this not violate the terms of one of or all of the loans he uses?
The last time I got a personal loan from my bank, it stipulated that use of the money for any illegal purposes would result in the immediate termination of my loan. Does any financial institution have the balls to enforce this boilerplate clause in elons case?

The US is likely never going to be a manufacturing powerhouse again.
Americans love the idea of buying American made products, but not the cost and certainly not the labor that actually goes into making them at scale.
Certainly some things need to be produced domestically, and still are, either because it’s expensive or impractical to ship them, or because it’s a national security concern. But the vast majority of products your typical American buys will never be made here, because they would instantly become luxury items.
