Great, you’re admitting what I said. It’s not available to everyone. Thanks, we’re done here.

Yeah ok. Good points about Colombia. I think that's quite different given the trade surplus for them - they would sell a lot more coffee to the US than goods they import surely.

Thank you for the respectful explanation even though you have other opinions.

I admit that the text is lacking in a detailed explanation. This comment was kind of a throwaway comment at the time, but there are certain aspects of these tariff actions that point to a reality.

• Economists believe that these actions will have a detrimental effect on the US economy (All three North American Economies).
• The administration is shutting down government services.
• These services are necessary.
• (This is where a possible "theory" may come in) The private sector will say they have come to "save" us and "bail out" these failing services. For example, educational institutions. Will they become privately run by Google ED, High School by Meta or some other company? Yes, This is definitely speculation but also not that far out to be tinfoil hat level.

We should recognize the importance of accessible public education because...if a fucking nutsack, dipshit can't read well enough to understand a throw away, 10 year old+ meme then we are already fucked.
