    Buying local is an option to evade paying tariffs on imported goods.
    But what do you do if buying local is no real option?
    I’m thinking of coffee, chocolate, computers, mobile phones, game consoles, cars, etc.

      Unpopular opinion but Americans as a whole need to get used to less of nearly any nonessential good.

        You gotta learn how to present ideas around here:

        Make do with less.

        “NOOO! FUCK YOU! AND BILLIONAIRES SUCK!”

        Stop over consumption to starve the billionaires and save the planet.

        “YEAH ALL YOU GREEDY PIGS! STOP!”
