If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

Q: Are you concerned that if the proposal to review 5 years of social media to get a tourist visa is implemented that there will be a decline in tourism?

So we pay the food tariffs through higher grocery prices, then we pay $12 billion (through our taxes) to bail out the farmers because of the tariffs.
In the mean time, grocery prices are still up. Because... tariffs.
It's a lose-lose-lose situation for American consumers.
