We're not killing the fish exclusively for their swim bladder though, we're eating the rest of it.
It would be like how many consider cow leather for clothing more acceptable than mink fur pelts. We're at least eating the rest of the cow, using the leather for clothing is just maximizing use.

No love for wool? Silk? Other natural fibers like Hemp?

There's a number of reasons, but the primary one would be that we've concentrated the immune compromised there. There's just more people with weaker immune systems available for exposure.
Plus, by sterilizing everything, a bug that can survive said sterilization better will have essentially an open field to propagate in.
In addition, such environments tend to be less sterile than promised.

You don't have to do it with the chip industry if you prosecute antitrust before it gets out of hand, and you don't have to do it with the rare earths industry because they existed here before. You only have to accept slightly less profit than if you export it to China.

Those things are all doing a lot more harm than cocaine. Too bad you're a Russian troll, or you could admit that.

A plutocracy is a type of oligarchy.

Have you ever been right about anything? Because today is not that day.

I want to point out that for the most part they were always like this, but they used to expect that readers could read so they had to be a little more deceptive about it in some cases.

There is always bias. What stories get covered, who is interviewed, how they are reported was always biased.

Go fuck yourself, Ivan. Fuck yourself today, tomorrow, and every other day, and when you have fucked off, fuck off some more.

1) We buy what we're offered
2) As they have exported the jobs we've made less money and have less choice about what we buy based on what we can afford

Zero. The answer is zero.

C&H has had a part in moving countless tons of sugar into the United States (killing how many?) Same answer. But if you think that Maduro is culpable for helping to deliver a product that killed a lot of Americans, then you should think the same about C&H and RJ Reynolds and Shell Oil and and and and and

He's easy to manipulate, so that's a safe bet.

Perhaps this is just a later stage of craziness.

This could affect any Windows user, so while it will not affect most Windows users, it's still a potential problem for any of them. If something happens to activation, whether because of just some new bug or because of a hardware change (user has something they need on their PC so they pay for a repair and the system decides it's a different system now) then they may be left unable to reactivate. This has happened in the past, and Microsoft is infamous for having the same problems linger on for multiple Windows versions, e.g. Windows Update breaking itself in the same ways for years and years while they issue alleged fix after alleged fix that doesn't solve the problem.

That, of course, is nonsense. The reason is greed. American oligarchs who ran companies which use rare earths figured out that it was more profitable to let China produce them with a lot of pollution in China, and ship them here producing more pollution, than to produce them with lower levels of pollution here.

Bringing rare earths production back to the US is a good thing. The right way to do it if you were going to do it with tariffs would have been to be consistent, with a well-established schedule phased in over several years so as not to fuck over your domestic industries which depended on the products. You would have to be a Chinese (or Russian) agent to think it was a good idea to do it all at once, and to be completely inconsistent about it and change the amounts repeatedly and chicken out on some of them and never actually institute some of them (I've been buying stuff from China all along and none of it has gotten any new tariffs) and generally waffle and whine, winding up looking stupid and weak.

Whether you're picking up your fifty cents at the door, or you're chained to a table in Moscow, either way you can fuck off for free.
