You are forgetting that other countries respond with tariffs of their own. Ultimately, the outcome balances out, just with higher prices for everyone. Local producers that rely on exports lose while those that sell locally win - as long as they don't rely on imports for raw materials.
Consumers lose, especially on stuff that will never be produced locally, or rules on raw materials that can't be sourced locally.
FWIW: It never even occured to me that they might have meant removing speed limits. I had to go back and re-read it a few times to see what the beef was.
Context is important here. Sure, "drop" could mean two things, but anything other than "lowering" in this case wouldn't make sense. IMHO, at least.
No way. When something numerical is "dropped" it usually means lowered. Especially in the form "drop numerical value", as was this case.
Maybe...but two things:
If the number of obese people is lower, then what are the people who aren't mildly overweight? They are healthy weight. So even if the percentage of mildly overweight people stay the same, the day to day comparison is with a bigger group of healthy weight people, so they probably were more recognizably overweight.
Secondly, with less really obese people you wouldn't get desensitized to seeing fat all the time, which makes mildly overweight people seem more normal. Somebody with a BMI of 26 and about 15lbs overweight would have been more likely to be described as "plump" or "husky" back then. But when crowds are full of people that are 50+ lbs overweight, that 26 BMI seems downright healthy.
This is all speculation. I can't remember how I perceived overweight vs obese people back in the 80's.
That's the thing 40 years ago you would realize that they were overweight.
That's me! "Teal", perhaps?
For me turquoise is turquoise.
Take a look at this:
This is in the Museum of the Palazzo Massimo alle Terme in Rome, and it comes from an ancient Roman Villa in Rome. Probably painted in the first or second century CE. There's walls of this stuff in the museum.
It's not realism, but minimalistic sketches that, in many ways, outdo realism in artistic quality. To me, this looks more like something that you might find in Leonardo's sketchbook than on the wall of on ancient Roman Villa from 1200 years earlier.
The reason for leaving in the password.trim() would be one of the few things that I would ever document with a comment.
I was there a month ago. It wasn't windy at all.

The PACs aren't the issue, it's that they are allowed unlimited spending. In Canada, where I live, third party spending is capped at $350K per registered partisan group.
