    perun weighs in on tariffs and guesses what might come next https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVZ1lcw2bVU

    some things perun notes that i hadn’t because i haven’t followed the entire situation closely: that trade deficit calculation uses goods only, not services, and this is most of what sv exports; eu might retaliate against sv oligarchs specifically. also we’re in times where it’s necessary to pull up american govt pages from internet archive to make a point. fun. also chatbot-cooked policy looks suspiciously like chatbot solution to a entry level econ course toy problem with loads of very unusual assumptions, which are discussed too.
