it's weird seeing the reaction to tariff threats where it boils down like, yeah we've been logging trees, shipping them whole across the border, they turn it into matchsticks and mulch, and then send it back for 1,000% profit to the other country - like hmm, is there another way we could do that?

breathless stories about how the looming tariffs threaten our craft beer industry and not a peep in any of them to the effect that maybe we could... turn the aluminium into can lids *domestically*?
