1522 - There's A New Tariff In Town


So it's the Fourth Of July, and we have fireworks.  Just what is the White House planning these days?  Is this new wave of nationalist protectionism a prelude to war?  Are Mr. Trump and Mr. Kim merely pawns on a chessboard played at by Russia and China?  Or are the new tariffs simply a consequence of executive greed?  

Poor Superman, considering his Canadian origins, will have to balance his chequebook more carefully every time he changes from Clark Kent into The Man Of Steel, now that steel is twenty-five percent more expensive.  

Superman is the intellectual property of DC Comics, as subsidiary of WarnerMedia.
