But it is good. That part.
I feel like I'll still see you all later at the gas chamber. I'll be the guy scratching the paint desperately as my charred left leg drags behind my hops.

Brazilian here.
A year ago, the prices of food were through the roof, public opinion was against Lula and there were protests because of it all.
Now?
The far right is sinking faster than the Bismark, Lula is in a good position to be reelected without a run-off election and prices are going down again (we even had a bit of deflation in August).
A lot of this has to do with The Orange Pustule's reaction to the conviction of his criminal friend Boslonaro. In the end, Drumpf is the best campaign manager Lula could hope for.

This makes me happy that even though the country i live in is really shitting the bed right now, our shitting is having SOME positive outcome for others in the global community.
Fuck Drumpf.

I'd love for some more direct trade from us here in Canada to the other countries in the Americas, specially coffee!

I’m in Canada and I’m hoping for more direct trade that excludes that US, there was the whole “buy Canadian” movement and I dig it, but it should be “don’t buy American” i don’t have a problem buying European or South American goods. Hopefully that would lower prices on non American items.
The tariffs have lifted on our end and American products have dropped back in price, but im still going to avoid them.

I was under the impression that the lower prices were going to be for Americans. I guess he technically kept his promise.

Hopefully, with the excess food they can't trade to other countries we'll get a food discount in America. 🤣🤣🤣
I know capitalism is all about greed and they'll find a way to make money rather than give it us.

nice, he's successfully lowered food prices!
I wonder how much America needs to dismantle itself and plunge its people into hell to make up for its share of the net evil caused from the end of WWII...?
("net evil" because there's some good and bad, and "share" because a lot of other countries participated...)
