I'm not saying tariffs are horrible idea, but in US blaming Canada and Mexico for its border problem... Interesting.

How did the narrative shift so fast from the US needing to protect its own border and having a horrible border Czar etc. to exporting that responsibility of border protection to others? I for one think it's better for a country to protect itself from people ENTERING the country. I think it's also appropriate for people to be able to leave their country with little intervention from their own government. Making it difficult to leave seems a bit too akin to COVID IMO. This is the opposite implementation of a sensible border crack down. If you need tariffs to encourage local economic growth and become more self sovereign, that's one thing and it even makes sense, but I think border protection should be the responsibility of the country that needs protecting. It's surprising how quickly someone can change their thought when the narrative suits their ends.

Hey, USA, take some responsibility for your border and if you need tariffs for other reasons, then tell it like it is. Your MONEY PRINTING allowed you to consume from the world and live off the backs of having the world reserve currency now there are many tasks you can no longer do locally. The privilege will end with sound money.

I mean, if you border a country which is constantly letting rapists and murders through and placing all the burden on you to stop it, at some point you are going to consider your neighbor the same way you'd consider a bunch of shit smeared on your face.

When it comes to Canada though, the problem is less letting people through (although there are wokies) and more letting terrible destructive pernicious ideas through.

BTW the US is not blameless either. In the end, sound money does fix this.

Absolutely. I'll be the first to say Canada has problem as does the USA, although they are different. Trump is doing WAY more right than wrong so far from what I can see. But it's interesting how many, especially people who can supposedly think, allow their thoughts to be guided once their guy/tribe/clan get in power. I mean lets be real, he's right leaning socially which is needed IMO and he's got many of the right ideas, but he's a shitcoiner and has his own share of idiotic moments. I usually say that Trump was the best choice and also will likely do a lot of good for the US but he's also an idiot😆

Stay vigilant. Stay sovereign.
