Only reason tariffs will hurt the economy is because the masses have been conditioned to buy ? that's not necessary. People have gotten so used to having things done for them that they can't bare to not have everything done for them. The mental stupidity the news keep trapping the zombies is not surprising. When we gotta hunt for our food the weeds will be exposed
Discusses tariff impacts and economic behavior, though rambling and somewhat incoherent in argumentation.

It's true - they buy the franchises for a song - employ their own - push out other hard working immigrants - run the quality of the products into the ground - and then call us racists when the business goes to shit. I'd rather have four million Philippines and south American refugees - than a bunch of entitled Khalistanis, Muslims and jihadists. Any fucking day! We actually don't go thru drive thru anymore - we go inside and see who is working before we order anything. Absolutely sick of shitty food and bad service.
Combines economic grievances (franchise ownership, employment practices, service quality) with ethnic stereotyping and preference ranking of immigrant groups.
