Judge James Robart told Business Insider a bank that managed his wife’s individual retirement account purchased Boeing stock in April 2023. He said as soon as he learned about it, he had the stocks sold; his financial disclosures said the shares were sold on two dates in May and June.

It comes as cities nationwide grapple with a spike in the number of people without access to shelter, driven in part by high housing costs and the end of aid programs launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Basically modern “vagrancy laws” and slavery. In US the incarcerated population also serves as a source of cheap labor, which might be the reasoning behind these laws

Only question is whether the west will actually manage to incentivize the creation or movement of means of production to replace this tariffed production from China.
