You guys are buying things?

I've been buying more things than usual to try to get everything I need for the medium term before tariff shortages and hyperinflation kick in.

While I agree something should happen, I am not sure taking aim at business is the answer. Small businesses are already on the brink in many cases, and this will only help the big corps as they'll buy up all their competition when they become insolvent. I am Canadian, and we are boycotting most American products on a large scale in Canada. I am not saying don't do this, what I am saying is that might play right into his hands, because he could not care less about the affect of his actions.
