International trade is now under a microscope. One cool thing about the US administration is that it includes plenty of young people, several of whom I am fortunate enough to know. They're furious.. and also can't get much public traction on the issue. If you play tough with trade, you're evil, nationalist, racist, etc. But if you play nice, it can result in nurses wearing trash bags, in which case you're also the worst ever.
I hope and pray that logic prevails
