    Agreed.

    Doctrow’s suggestion is a good long term approach and definitelysomething w should have started when Trump first tried to attack our economy.

    But in the short term we also need to react swiftly and in kind. And to focus that response disproportionately on the people and industries that most strongly enable Trump and his supporters.

     

    Working against expanding our markets and suppliers is geography, though. It takes much longer and costs much more to move goods between Canada and Europe/Asia/South America than it does to the US.
