......but the problem is not only cheap Chinese goods taking away so called "jobs".....but to try stem contraband like drugs and the precursors to manufacture drugs finding its way into the USA and not only from China.....

Noted, it will be an expensive exercise, anyway you look at it, from the original packaging from the Chinese manufacturer which would have to be marked in Spanish, labelling, etc.

It would be extremely easy to pick up the fraud via Blockchain and or pressurise the consignee/receiver in the US for the proforma order to the manufacturer. If American authorities cannot smell a rat the the EV or computer chips were manufactured in Guatemala or Venezuela, then they deserved to be ripped off. Unusual trends are very easy to pick up in a company's trading history.

......control or making it seem like you have or trying to take action speaks volumes and better than rather  doing nothing...not only about tariff dodging Asians and it is not that Panama has only the canal....but hoards of South Amercan and other so called asylum seekers pass/ed through Panama en route to USA and stopping most of them in Panama before they get to Mexico is by far easier and cost effective than patrolling a vast border and building higher walls.....what is then the point of extraditing all these people and huge costs only to have them make their way back..... they gotta try plug every possible avenue to try solve problems.....the bigger picture... but still make out that China is the problem cheating duties.....but having control of Panama solves other issues too..... 

Think the reason this is being issued by Trump, Musk's father still resides in South Africa. Elon Musk can afford to pay for his dad to be invited  to the US, more shockingly, the grifting has not stopped, pay me and you can join my Cabinet, ja right - let's see what position Musk's father gets if he accepts the "invite", versus some random white guy :-

TN, this sadly excludes you, his biggest male supporter in South Africa.

Why does he want this to happen? Well he believes that every Afrikaner is a farmer or farm worker. He needs to replace all the Mexicans and other Latinos who he is kicking out of the US. There is already a shortage of fresh fruit and veg and soon the corn fields will be going to waste

 

📢 DA Takes Expropriation Act to Court! 

🚨The DA has officially filed papers in the Western Cape High Court to challenge the Expropriation Act, which we believe is unconstitutional.

🔎 Why are we fighting this?
✅ Government should not have sweeping powers to expropriate property without compensation
✅ The process to adopt the Act did not follow the correct process
✅ The Act is vague and contradicts itself, rendering it unconstitutional  

‼️ We fully support legal redress, but the law needs to protect every South African’s right to own property, ensuring that no government is ever given unchecked expropriation powers ever again! The ANC tried (and failed) to amend the Constitution for expropriation without compensation, so now they’re sneaking it in through this law. Not on our watch! 

💪 The DA will fight this in court, in Parliament, and everywhere else necessary to protect your property rights.

⚖️💙 This court case is only the beginning of our fight against the Expropriation Act. We will not stop defending and advancing the property rights of every South African!

......talk about leaving it to the 11th hour......finally they find a set of balls to take on the ever conniving ANC..... and as others have posted the EWC law/act in the hands of a more radicalized ANC RET faction down the road and possibly absorbing Zuma's MK party would be absolute mayhem for any those opposing the "new" government....

The thread heading should have started with the word Just
