The US has roughly 1/4 the population of China and yet our GDP is 1.6 times China's. Maybe tariffs aimed at returning our technologically driven economy, back to a simple manufacturing hub, isn't the best economic move. 🤷‍♀️

"The EU, like the United States, has generally low tariffs; the average tariff it charges on US goods is less than 3 percent. So where does [Trump's] 39 percent number come from? I have no idea." (Economist Paul Krugman) open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

Mary Beth Tinker (Tinker v. Des Moines) virtually visited my classes today. She talked about free speech and student empowerment, which the world sure could use more of right now. "You're making history either way. By acting, you get to choose which side you want to be on."
