Lay off a bunch of folks at the FDA, then announce tariffs? WTF? If you want pharma's to onshore manufacturing, you need to provide them quicker review. So much stupidity.
- Ah, you forget the alternative. Instead of quicker review, we could just reduce oversight, and remove safety regulations.

  We are not going to approve any new drugs with Brain Worms running the CDC. You just need a good spoonful of cod liver oil.
We're about to have a third world economy. Good luck with that.
- US healthcare already lags 3rd world countries so it's going back to the confederacy now.

Oh thank goodness. I was starting to worry Tariffs were not on everything.
- It's not on oil or gas. Hmmm. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/trumps-tariffs-already-have-major-carve-out-oil-gas-russell-2025-04-02/
  
  Oil executives would probably have him murdered if he did that.
  You don’t fuck with oil execs’ bottom line.
You might want to get sick now, before pharmaceuticals aren't available anymore.
- And thanks to RFK Jr., that's more feasible than ever.
- Trump has looped back around to full retard so many times that I have no idea why I'm dividing the circumference of an average apple by a banana on a bicycle.
Beat down your local magats to thank them for this shit
- I’m gonna cough on them
  
  Throwing an elbow into their ribs is fun too
This will kill people. Directly kill them.
Social Murder.
Just what we needed. More expensive healthcare.
When your perspective is that Trump's testicles are held in a vice grip by Daddy Putin, the whole tarriffs situation makes clear as day sense.
I guess I feel less bad about the stache I have accidentally built up over the last couple of years. Time to refill everything.
