No sweat, we’ll just stop importing your syrup and electricity (which really only makes up 11% of electricity used in a couple locales/towns). We don’t need you. At all.

Existential threat? Really? If tariffs are existential threats, then Canada has been exitentially threatening the US for decades. They’ve been tariffing us for years and then you complain when we return favor. Grow up.

Canada doesn’t do free & fair trade. That’s the whole point.

Actually, Canada has been taxing American goods at insane rates for decades. It’s been Canadian “tariffs we don’t really call tariffs” kind of sneaky BS. Protectionism at its finest. I’ve been to Canada and bought Budweiser and Marlboros at 3x the price they cost in America (and 4x the cost of their Canadian counterparts), with the border just 20 miles away.

But when the shoe’s on the other foot, Canada cries like a little baby.

As much as I don’t like Trump, it is fun to watch Canada take a dose of its own medicine. And here’s the kicker – America doesn’t need Canada. At all. In fact, Canada is an expense for us. So I say shut the border entirely. It won’t hurt the US one bit.

“Isms” tend to end badly for everyone. All of them.

Both parties make their money by serving their puppet masters who steal money from us. The middle class used to capture 25% of GDP back in the 70’s. Now we’re lucky to capture 7%. And we’ve had plenty of politicians from both sides that just made the problem worse. It’s not Dem’s vs. Rep’s, it’s the rich enslaving the poor. Always has been, always will be.

Right now I don’t think either side is looking out for the average American citizen or the longevity of the country. My next vote is no confidence.

Back in the 70s the American worker captured 25% of global wealth. Right now, we capture about 7%. It’s not because a single generation is “withholding” the wealth. It’s because the large corporations (the ones backing AOC) have gotten too powerful. So long as she keeps pointing her finger at a single generation instead of the corporations that are actually responsible, she keeps her masters happy and gets more campaign dollars.

Cracks me up – the people who scream the loudest about overgeneralization (ie: Ageism) are the ones practicing it the most. The Nazis did it with the Jews, and now AOC wants to do it with an entire generation. The modern liberal movement was actually started by Boomers. Hippies? Boomers. Sanders? Boomer. Funny how people can label an entire generation over the acts of a few.
