Seriously? There's an import tariff on bananas?
That can't be right. Has the American government really become that incompetent, that stupid?

Yes, but the banana industry is trying to educate them:
Banana industry works for tariff exemption
Tom Stenzel, executive director of BANA, said he and BANA members are working with government leaders to gain an exemption for bananas.

They didn't actually say "we can't build bananas in the United States ", did they?
Did they literally not know about US banana production?
Who elected these ****ing idiots?

I think being super wealthy requires being an ass, to some extent. There's a lot of trampling on people and stepping over bodies when you get to that level in the world of private equity and investment funds.

I mean, they put tariffs on literally everything and said they'd figure it all out later.
Yes, because the average voter is and doesn't really understand what they're voting for anymore. We're influenced by highly-addictive technologies that influence how we think, to the point where we don't think at all or don't know how or what to think.
