9/ The tariffs are DESIGNED to create economic hardship. Why? So that Trump has a straight face rationale for releasing them, business by business or industry by industry.

During the night of 1st/2nd March Stalin made his biggest contribution to the working class, socialism and entire world by dying. He spent his last hours laying on the floor with pooped pants, which was a very fitting end to a vile monster like him. #stalin #fcktankies

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:
