The "Agent Orange" Pandemic
Isolation is for idiots.
It is simply untenable for a prosperous, relevant, modern society.
Using isolation as a negotiating threat is equally idiotic. It's the economic equivalent of threatening to shoot yourself in the foot.
What does economically shooting yourself in the foot look like?
Product shortages, bare shelves, higher prices, crashing equity markets, declining investment, inflation eating away at your savings --- all entirely self inflicted and coming soon to a WalMart near you.

I predict it will be the fault of the Biden Crime Family.
I predict a lot of people will accept that excuse --- because the truth is too painful.
Could be a long con to destroy the port unions then build those shiny new automated ports.
