Although economists disagree by how much, the consensus view among economists and economic historians is that "The passage of the Smoot–Hawley Tariff exacerbated the Great Depression.

There are two: Special relativity and General relativity.
Associate the "S" with speed and the "G" with gravity.
Neither is noticeable to you because objects would have to be moving super fast or an object would have to be immersed into a very strong gravity.
As an object approaches the speed of light, as compared to us standing still, that object gets very heavy, a clock on it would run very slowly, and the object would become shorter.
A very large gravitational field does about the same thing.
Einstein also discovered that mass is frozen energy and both are the same thing, similar to water and ice.
It's more complicated than this simple description and I can help if you'd like to learn more.
Of all the comments so far, this one is at least addressing TFS, so thank you.
If the climate get hotter, couldn't we simply move the production more to the north? After all, It's not like we don't have space available.
Migrating trees can be done, but the questions is: can we also migrate the ecosystem that the trees upon which the trees depend?
They have pretty strict requirements regarding sunlight, growing periods, seasonal air temperatures, and the soil must contain certain recipes of nutrients, temperatures, moisture, pH, and microbial activity.
Humans can migrate and adjust to changes and adapt to life, perhaps, without maple syrup.

Addendum
Starting a "subsidy war" would put a greater burden on foreign solar panel manufacturers (spelled, "China").
Let them spend their own goddam money.
Precisely.
To those who assert that imports are subsidized by the country of manufacture, that strategy, obviously, is effective.
Answering with domestic subsidies would be a better choice than a tariff war.
That way, "America First," would be backed by American dollars right at the factories and not with tariffs that disappear into a black hole.
What does spiraling retaliatory tariffs do to the economy even if there is no depression?.

This is not a matter of an American-issued search warrant delivered to person or persons of name, as in individuals.
Microsoft obviously has a pathway to the data in Ireland and there are no gatekeepers blocking that path, at this time.
At issue is custodianship vs ownership vs jurisdiction, and it ain't easy.
This is problem has already been addressed in the case offshore banking.
I think that's where SCOTUS will take this.
... in some cases, it will return an answer of, "pissed off gorilla."
Your question is like asking if you can copyright the paper in a book.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post and I'm honoured that my observations motivated you to bother commenting.
It's called, "making a buck."
3.5mm is ubiquitous and there's no future in that.
When manufacturers stop innovating, they simply fuck stuff up and change shit so you'll be forced to buy accessories.
Bluetooth makes sense for cases where a wire is inconvenient.
There's no cleverness in designing a device that will not accept a 3.5mm wire, forcing consumers to buy something else, except, "making a buck."
Thank you for your courtesy.
TL;DR
You're not 9 years old and neither am I.
Why would I read you when I can read this?
Matter is just frozen light.

Have your mother bring me a beer.
Thanks, kid.
Humans don't need maple syrup.
There are many synthetic syrups on store shelves ...
It's like a guy at work telling me that I would not want any of the pork sausage he just made.
I tried it and he was right.
I was raised on store-bought sausage and fresh sausage tastes nasty.
OTOH, I love to shoot, clean, and fry me up a mess of rabbits and have since I was a kid.
I cannot stomach tame rabbit.
Humans will survive climate change, but it won't be pretty.
A post above suggested moving the trees North.
What if "North" (for these trees or any other thing of value) was on somebody's land?
That's what we need to be concerned about.

You know that includes newborns and kids under a year old, right?
Those typically want a tit.

Liquidity also has an element of time.
BTC has a built-in time lag so large, juxtaposed against BTC volatility that value is a fleeting thing.
Your courtesy appreciated.
The math doesn't work, does it?
First, we have to know the population of /.ers, both registered and Ac.
Then we'd have to know how many of those have friends.
See where this leads?
One advantage they have though is better liquidity than other collectibles.
Disagree. I never had to pay a 30-60 $ transaction fee to get or dump a Beanie Baby.
"Fraudulent" doesn't apply until a fraud is actually committed.
BTC is like Pet Rocks ... except worse.
