Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I mean. We could do all that if we want.

You heard him folks, shine up your Somali and take to the seas, this man wants to see if we can cost him more money as traditionalists.

So now he's angry that we've fucked up our agricultural exports badly enough that the rest of the world doesn't think our trash goods are food grade?

Govt subsidies? Really?

I was wondering when piracy is going to join the game. Awkwardly absent so far.

He doesn't even know or care about how traditional tariffs are supposed to work. What makes him think he knows what the fuck is non-tariff? Old fucking moron.

When they say 'piracy' does he think they are referring to Captain Jack Sparrow?

Does he think that pirates would turn around and buy $1 Trillion worth of media if pirating stopped? Lmao.

my concern over IP Theft goes from the ground up, can't help it. I'll worry about what corps think they're missing out on right after I've acknowledged each and every person who has ever written anything on the internet, or shared an original work in any way. the damage done by tech bros pillaging the collective imagination is way higher than $1T

How dare other companies cheat by having more stringent food standards than the USA? Everyone should be forced to buy and ingest real American salmonella.

idk if i want agent orange to get a stroke because on one hand might just die but on the other hand the nonsense he speaks could just get more powerful

Bowling ball test?

So anyway, here I was, drifting through the lemmy pages, when I realized there was a ton of money to be made by writing software for smugglers.

I have never really known a smuggler of physical goods, but I imagine I will try now

I'm not interested in giving rich humans access to another trillion dollars.

That works against the best interests of hu-fucking-manity.

The fuck is "non-tariff cheating" supposed to mean?

I wonder what his definition of Transshipping would be if asked off-the-cuff without his advisors around.

When Trump says piracy, I understand he's referring to classic piracy (with little boats and all), and when he says IP Theft, I assume he's referring to the piracy that concerns us. Good luck adding a tax to my $0 rate.
