As has been noted before, I was one of the few people regularly outside of my house during the pandemic. You are welcome for that, btw.

Anyway, you just proved my point. You’re unhappy that a lockdown decimated those classes - and I think that’s an over statement, but let’s take it for granted - and you want tariffs to come along and jack up prices 20-25%? We’re not talking about just cars and iPhones. Pretty much everything. Along with jobs being shed as businesses adjust, when they have their own short falls.
Aww, someone's little hero fantasy isn't being fed. Maybe if you go key a Tesla, you'll feel better.
We all contribute to society in different ways. I worholidays and overnights to save lives. You call the ICE hotline so the government can round up a few Guatemalans.
Wow - so much hero-ing and you still have time to build fantasies about what I do in my own spare time! When do you sleep?. (There's an ICE hotline?)

The only thing I find truly exhausting is trying to convince the folks here of anything. Did you know that the sun rises in east? I swear it does.

I don't know where you got the audacity to think that it is your role here to convince anyone of anything, but you should use both hands to put it back.

The S&P rose 7% after Trump announced he's pausing some of the tariffs.

I wonder how many people he told before he announced it.
