In a small town of 900 people, it seems odd a council member would be THAT upset about removing license plate reading camera systems, when it's clear the town doesn't want it. To get flustered enough to start proposing sarcastic bills, it's not a stretch to immediately think that there's at least some political maneuvering behind it, if not blatant kickbacks.

The irony is that on-shoring high-end manufacturing would be a good thing. But the approach of "do it right now, or I'll put tariffs on your product(s)" is not the way to get any lasting change. It's a way to get the performative changes we're seeing, that will drift right back offshore when this administration mercifully ends.
