Trade balance: Exports - Imports Simple math, not a crime

TRADE DEFICIT
A trade deficit occurs when a country imports more goods and services than it exports.
EXPORTS
IMPORTS
Example: If the U.S. exports $200 billion worth of goods in a month but imports $250 billion, it has a trade deficit of $50 billion for that month
• Part of a country's balance of trade, which is exports minus imports
• A trade surplus is the opposite —when exports exceed imports

TRADE DEFICITS
Trade deficits aren't always bad and can even be a positive indicator.
EXPORTS
IMPORTS
For example, a deficit may reflect a strong economy where consumers can afford to buy more goods and services.

HOW DOES POPULATION SIZE AFFECT A TRADE IMBALANCE?

Senator Booker lending his voice and halting the Senate floor for 24 hours is more than any other Democrat has done since November. It’s a welcome shift — and a quiet indictment of the party’s complacency. #BookerLedFirst #LetLeadersLead

Good analogy. Seattle only recovered a bit from the earlier rush to build highways this decade when it tore down the Alaskan Way Viaduct mess blocking the waterfront. LA never will recover. I am partial to an opt-in approach to data mining for AI training

I made the news today, oh boy… At the Tainan City train station, an unstable inebriated man accosted us. You’ll notice my learned reaction to such incidents, honed thru years of similar experiences in Seattle and San Francisco. As shown he’s yelling, asking where I am from and if I am American.

“Oh no!”, he exclaimed. “Oops!”, I interjected. “AHH!”, we both ejaculated.

People make ejaculations when they're excited or have something important to say. Ejaculations are also called interjections. They often interrupt, and they're usually full of emotion. Duh, yikes, holy cow, and d'oh (as in Homer Simpson's D'OH!) are all ejaculations.
