So we have 2 Million Dollars of refrigeration equipment parked in the lot in trade war limbo.  Canada went broke on the project and we are unpaid.

It's a green project, to convert waste to methanol launched in 2020.  Somehow I think some of the money our Canadian customer squandered was green new deal Money from Joe. The money was supposed to pay us for building it.

I registered to vote in the Republican Primary in admiration of Governor Larry Hogan's committment to fiscal responsibility.  I voted for him for a rare victorious Republican Governor as a Democrat. 4 years later I decided the Republican Primary in Maryland was far more interesting and influential than the Democratic Pick One of One Choice Ballot. And I wanted to make sure Larry won the primary to make the GE for a second term.  He did Maryland pretty good in his 8 years and he probably would have made a very good POTUS. I did vote for him for the Senate seat which he lost in 2024. He had serious baggage in 2020, his chief of staff got busted for corruption and embezzlement, there was a manhunt, he committed suicide.  I don't think Hillary was involved.

I won't disagree that trade imbalances exist.  But this cold turkey approach is going to kill the patient IMO. It's like America is in side effects from chemotherapy. It is far too complex for anyone on this forum to have the expertise to debate the negosheashuns.  The Dow Jones is the heartbeat of America and we were headed to being flatlined a few weeks ago. The market value blood pressure is still not going back up and our goal is to get it as high as we can.
