We've all seen videos of maggots who voted for Anal Fistula and lost their job or had someone in their family soon to be deported.
We know that there are U.S. resort areas that cater to Canadians and have had cancellations from Canadian citizens who are pissed off or scared of I.C.E. abuse.
Let me tell you about my Son-in-law. He's been working as an architect for a firm that plans buildings for governments.... fed, state, county and local. - both Republican and Democratic run governments. When the tariffs reach full scale, he expects to be laid off. The outer shells of newer office and utilitarian buildings are constructed using a large percentage of aluminum. The metal is sturdy and cheaper than steel. But aluminum requires a substantial amount of electricity to make the alloy. Canada has the capacity. The U.S., at this point in time, does not. And it is unlikely that such electric capacity can be developed within the next several years.
So until the tariff problem is resolved, there will be fewer government building being ordered. He will have less work, or no work.
There is one bright spot -- Trump and Kushner's buildings will also cost more to build.
