I think we've taken free market to an extreme in a race to the bottom. Tariffs are probably a good thing, but maybe not in the way they have been currently implemented. Almost 15% of the country is on SNAP and we're spending hundreds of billions per month on debt interest. I'm not sure how we come back from this.
