While Elon and Donald are at it, there are a lot of costs that need to be wrung out of the oil industry.
I would blame high oil prices on the predicament of foreign cars versus American. I would blame arms and legs missing from IEDs on the oil industry. I would blame alcoholics living on oil pensions...
I would blame all missteps in alt energy on the oil industry.
I would blame plastic in our bodies and low birth rates on the oil industry.
I could say how many cases of leukemia?
I would blame Wars and assassinations on the oil industry.
I would blame conflicts with foreign nations on the oil industry.
I would blame unfair employment on them.

So a 25% tariff on a foreign made car?
I don't know what to buy now.
So if a Honda is made in the USA that is tariff free?
But if say a Buick or Ford is made in Mexico or Canada that is subject to tariff?
And I believe in buying American brand names.
But that isn't what is implied by the tariffs is it?
You know what? If I had that Presidential authority and wanted to wield it in that manner I would state you can't sell a car in the U.S. if your company has a name that is odd or screeching to our English speaking ears. That is right. I would make you change your entire foreign company name. You are not going to litter over here in any way.
I don't care if your company was named after a WW2 emperor and that is your proud legacy? Wait a minute, maybe I do? Maybe I am on to something there?
