With these tariffs causing the market to crash, we’re about to see just how irresponsible and dangerous it is that healthcare is tied to employment.
It’s always been bad, but mass layoffs would mean the healthcare crisis worsens exponentially.
That and student debt.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.
Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Many law firms representing federal employees have come under attack. The legal community is pushing back. More than 4,000 legal professionals have signed an open letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, expressing concern over the administration’s actions against law firms.

On the subject of people traveling to the US right about now: Fuck, if I were from another country and I didn't need to come, I sure as hell wouldn't, the current administration has made it clear traveling here isn't safe, and why not take them at their word, there's a whole world to visit
