Some song contest (Eurovision) had gotten so big it was a galactic event. The sponsoring company had invaded one of the planets, stolen their resources (a honey flavored flower) to make a what I think was a cereal, then set fire to the planet to destroy the farms so no one else could get access to the resource.

The singing competition then banned residents of the planet from entering the competition so they didn't have a galactic stage to speak about the sponsors shitty actions.

    It can only be a way to offset the blame and make it out to not be his fault.

    Even if Walmart and other retailers were to eat the tarrifs, their profits margins would drop, which knocks their share price, which overall affects the entire US market.

    As a white South African, I agree. I'm sorry you end up with these people, but I'm glad they are no longer here.

    These aren't just racists. They are also mostly people who believe they are owed something for nothing and will drain resources from the USA government.
