"privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."

That's the wording in the constitution. They just say that undocumented migrants amount to an invasion and they can suspend it.

It's not like the supreme court is going to override them on that.

It's not even that entirely

You can't build X here unless every component is also produced... here. The component factories can't be built here here until there's factories building the subcomponents for them, AND a buyer for them here.

A button up shirt needs cotton -> chemical treatment -> dyes -> fabric, base chemicals > plastic pellets -> buttons, AND the machines to do all of those processes. It's like 7 or 8 different factories just to produce a shirt with buttons on it. Imagine how many factories it is for anything more complex.

Then in comes your point of needing commitment when it's not even certain for more than a week, nobody is going to build out entire supply chains in that scenario.

Nope, it's 3

The third one was technically a friendly fire shoot down, but it still ended up at the bottom of the same sea.

Don't forget the new submarine fleet, three new vessels in the last two weeks.

Leviticus 18:19

but you shall love your neighbor as yourself*

* unless they fall into one of the following categories: If they love someone who has the same sexual parts as themselves, if they have different skin color from yourself, or if they wear a dress while having a penis or pants while having a vagina"

Well this is pushing the boundaries of "No Stupid Questions"

Cannot get a trade with any country? We already have trade agreements with almost every country. The only thing that has changed recently is the US.

What kind of propaganda bullshit are you strung out on?

It's a major plotline in napoloean dynamite, and it's the plotline for a side character in legally blonde

I assume you're old enough to know those movies.

Just get it printed on a shirt.

Along with something funny.

The basic problem with this is that people aren't equal.

1 hour of a doctors time isn't the same as 1 out of a house cleaners time, because the doctor had to spend tens of thousands of hours ahead of time to be qualified for that job. Now each job and even experience levels within jobs need multipliers in order to reflect actual value.

That's before we get into the fact that some people are smarter, faster, stronger, etc. Than other people and levelling the field provides no incentive for people to do anything more than the absolute minimum.

It's a recipe for disaster.

America is a joke.

The rest of the world is actively rejecting your bullshit, and you are going to be worse off for it.
