@jondipietronh @krassenstein Theyβre VATting to (mostly) take the place of sales and (sometimes) income taxes. Itβs a very different system of taxation. They did not do it to attack us, but because they thought it would make better economic sense.

@krassenstein *Japan*, which won the American car market by building more attentively-designed cars with major breakthroughs in gas mileage and repair records and prices that were competitive even with tariffs.

@krassenstein Tariffs (among other things) are part and parcel of the pressures that over the years led to breakdowns in international relations.

@atrupar You really believe there was even the slightest chance that NATO would have invaded Russia? That was nowhere in or out of sight. NATO wanted no part of a war. Until Russia invaded Ukraine, that was the equivalent of believing that NATO had enlisted the Avengers to do their wars.

@DjOmegaMVP @Acyn Iβm a nobody. Yet I can tell you I can guarantee prices will go up. On some things, way up. And he canβt get them back down.

@atrupar They havenβt needed military protection since they broke off with the UK, long ago. And who is the only nation they realistically need more defensive military than they have now? Iβm ashamed to say that *weβve* become that kind of an existential threat to Canada.

@Gerashchenko_en Trump understands material wealth, and wants it for *our* rich folks, with a cut for himself. Peace is only valued as a condition necessary to make it safe to better extract resources. And forget about *lives*β¦

@markomihkelson Just remember that there are many in the US who are still with you, even if the dictator leadership is a part of the enemy. (Iβm picturing Ike, JFK, GHW Bush & Carter turning in their graves so fast they can provide us electric power.) I feel betrayed.

@atrupar They didnβt choose this warβ¦. And this effort is looking more and more like the partitions of Poland (both of which involved Russia).

@Andrewnsnyder The social media and the intelligentsia speak so much of β1984β. But the notes Iβm using, I took from Tolkien.

@peterhvideo I may never meet Paul McCartney. But at least I met his father-in-law (long before he was that).

@stevenchase How dare Canada make us *pay* for maple syrup! As for working together with #Putin: Trump wants to get mutual backing for our #conquests - while we take Canada, Greenland and Panama, they take Poland, Finland, and the Baltics, #Xi takes Taiwan and Korea. Fun all around!

@Acyn Jennings, at it again. Heβs still there because he stirs the pot. But the pot already stirs like a tornado.
