I am starting to think about that Trump just learned what a tariff is during this election cycle. Still has no idea how they work, what their purpose is, when they should be used, nor how they impact local and global economies but, gosh darn it, if he isn't excited to show off his new knowledge.

Maybe if they have him write out the word "TARRIF" on a piece of paper and put that paper on the white house fridge, he can be proud of it everyday and be able to move on to his next vocabulary word.

Umm, isn't Banksy's entire career centered around helping himself to others property without asking permission?

I'm honestly confused if he is using this display to advance his subversive messaging or if he is upset that he is the one being subverted.

Because the reason oil companies have been making record profits is because production was not cheaper?

Is that the argument being made? Oil faced with higher costs = higher profits,therefore lower costs = lower profits?

Well, they wrote some letters. There's nothing more the nations law makers can do to protect citizens from corporate greed and price gouging. /s

WLFI has a current value of $0.0000000000034 USD.

That's about 3 billion WLFI for 1 penny. What a deal!

Didn't Google try this a decade ago with Google Glass, but recieved such a negative response over privacy concerns that it abandoned the project.

Am I remembering this wrong? Have people's views on privacy changed to the point where this is acceptable? Does Meta not have the features that Google did which prompted to backlash?

Reading the article, it sounds more like Baris is making shit up to try and energize Trump voters.
