[MontyPython]

This clown show never ceases to amaze.

It's as if the Orange Menace is very much *trying* to **** with our importing businesses and *cause* problems and confusion.

But here's the good news, our checks from Donnie are in the mail!!!

"A dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone."

Fedex is just an agent that passes the importation fees to the shipping customer. They wont get reimbursed, maybe some process costs.

talk about unprecedented.

reminds me of a thought exercise.

If you stole $1 from every American, but also sent out a link/letter/text/email to every American you stole from with directions on how to get their dollar back without costing them any money to do so. How many Americans would actually go thru the process to get that dollar back?

I always thought most Americans never would. I wouldn't.
