The steel and aluminum tariffs are insane. We got rid of most of the American forges for Chinese imports, there's no other option.

Pretty sure China is the biggest aluminum producer and Russia is third biggest. I think the US was about 10th.

The Great Lakes are gonna be full of freighters, and there will be more accidents because of it. They're already running agound more than any other time in my life. The weather allows the shipping season to be longer, and in traditional capitalist fashion, the firms will overload ships to squeeze a couple more runs in before the ice closes the shipping channels and locks.

I also have my suspicions that the ports and rivers aren't being properly dredged because of cutbacks, and rollbacks of safety regulations, but that's all just vibes on my part.

Waiting for the gritty found footage horror movie called the legend lives on and every so many years, the ship comes back and takes another freighter to its watery grave
