What has happened over the last 50 years is that the world has leaned on the
United States wealth, ever so slowly putting rules in place that take and borrow
from Americans - and WE have been paying for it.

We're tired. We have tons of issues at HOME; the financial support should take
care of our issues first, and then sure - we have no problem helping the
world... but its been unfair over these decades; we are tired and taxed.

I literally can't understand how 'reciprocal tariffs', if applied correctly and
fairly, don't make sense - or better yet, the EU can just 'pay up' but turning
THEIRS down; then theres none from the US.

To say that Americans aren't being slowly taken advantage of just isn't a fair
statements.

Canada announces 25% tariffs on American electricity - Trump resonds with 50%
tariffs on steel and metal - Canada cancels the 25% tariff - Trump does the
same;

It's simple; we're going to use our power to force the removal of tariffs, taxes
and fees that MANY countries have put on American export over several decades.
That is a fact - and the sooner countries remove them, the sooner we will remove
our new tariffs; HOW is that unfair H1?
