To keep my cynical wit as sharp as a tack, I am practicing with this tidbit. (1) Social Security and OIG Hold 5th Annual National 'Slam the Scam' Day. Yes, just as 'everyone' might imagine, the first 4 attempts to end the SSA scam didn't work. Consistency? Think there will be a 6th? If they have anything to do with it! Let's jump "Back to the Future" (2) to the 1,000,000th annual event. It can happen. Rod Serling (3) was prophetic (inversely) in the introduction to the TV series he hosted, The Twilight Zone, with the request "Imagine if you will?" Unfortunately, government has made the request a moot issue. Imagination is no longer required.
(1) email received March 7, 2024 from the Social Security Administration. OIG - Office of Inspector General.
(2) Back to the Future, movie released July 3, 1985.
(3) Rod Serling, The Twilight Zone, TV series 1959 - 1965.
(?) Whole lot of cultural appropriation above! Deal with it.
Have a pleasant smiling day or life if you are that optimistic.

Goal: Increase knowledge of economic reality preserving life through tariffs war. My hypothesis explained here in an example is the loss of life of passengers on the Titanic. The loss would have been substantially fewer if there had been a tariff of 100% and more on the price of tickets. Recommendation: Adopt the policy to save lives with tariffs by charging only enough tariffs to save 100% of lives. Expect this methodology to work almost perfectly achieving the intent for applying the tariff.
Warning label: Side-effects are certain to result in the diminishment (diminution) of quality or entirety of life. *
Supposition: The side-effect may over time result in a similar amount of life diminution as the actual event that occurred with the iceberg. AN OPINION

The clue woven into the yarn, "history repeats itself" is that the "story" has been told before. Sometimes ingenuity (responsibility) can reveal what the repetition point will be (begin/end) since it is known that the current story is metaphorically, figuratively or elsewise plagiarized from history. The curtain dropping end is the only part of the performance that will happen only once.
Unpredictables shall be called "miracles". They are not foreseeable (predictable), so their effect has a case-by-case impact on the performance of reality.
No such word I predict this moment but not always.
OPINION. Historically consistent. That qualifies me for classification as opinionated.)

Canada has focused on the cow for a hoof in the door of dairy (milk/cheese) supply management*.
U.S. has focused on the steer for a horn in the door of beef supply management*.
Both (all) governments focus on everything it can dream of to force its laws on everyone it can. Each a micro story of the macro rule of man which is evidenced by a propensity to build a Tower of Babel of/to their own cause for survival of man. Particularly the men they know they are themselves.
So, we continue on a trail of our existence.
