    Things are permanently fucked. Inflation will go up on goods, deflation will keep lowering the value of the dollar. Shipments are being rejected at the ports on both sides. You couldn’t have screwed things worse for small - mid businesses short of a nuclear war. The GOP was efficient with destroying our economy this time.
