If country A sells most of an export to country B and country B makes it harder for country A to sell to country B, country A may raise prices for countries C, D and E to make up for the losses caused by country B.
Yeah, I’d think they’re going to produce what they are going to produce and will adjust allocation and prices to accommodate the demand change in the tariff country.

So what I’m hearing is, we should all be very mad with the Americans?
A bit over a half of them, yeah. (I do realise that voters aren’t 100% of the population but)
Eligible voters that chose not to, were they just fine either way?
Yeah those fuckers would be included, which is why the figure doesn’t work but also getting too pedantic would make it far less quippy, so…
Could country A try to decrease exports to country B and increase exports to country C, D, and E, perhaps by lowering the cost in C, D, and E?
