I do find it kinda crazy that we had a specific policy surrounding tariffs (Smoot-Hawley) that was in the center of the worst economic collapse in US history.

And now, less than 100 years later we're like "hey let's try that again!"

I mean honestly that's about right. As soon as it falls out of living memory people forget why the fence was there and tear it down.

Expect rhymes from the 1930's—an economic depression, tension leading to another world war. Fun stuff ahead.
