Gaza.... Similar deal of threat of outside interference to get other Arab countries to knock shit off. (doubtful it'll work completely)

Tariffs.... worked against Mexico, Colombia, Canada, etc.

US used to be home to many foreign customers who come from all surrounding countries to purchase everyday items because we had the best prices and largest quantities.

Now there's no financial benefit and these people have stopped coming.

The chinese vendors imports to their countries directly because the tariff there are low.

Thousands of businesses are affected. Many of them closed.

What are the financial effects? You go to the wholesale district of downtown Los Angeles, and the streets that were once jammed packed with customers from all over the south american countries have all but disappeared.
