Check with your HOA

If you live in a community with a HOA, you likely need approval before installing a pool, or building an addition to your home. It's the right and legal thing to do.

Perhaps the Trump Administration should have checked with their HOA (Congress, Supreme Court, World Economic Forum, UN, NATO, etc.) prior to implementing global tariffs. Recall the Liberation Day disaster - limited strategic planning was used to choose tariffs and consquentially, the world panicked. Change, as Elisabeth Kubler-Ross notes, creates fear, resistance, denial and utlimately a frame of acceptance. Think about how Trump's blitzkrieg tariff approach has negatively impacted global trade, foreign policy, large/medium/small and private businesses. But "change" can be implemented with well-comprised planning and communications. Certain tariffs are beneficial and effective when implemented with competence and diplomacy. Bottom line - if you don't follow the rules, you may get scorned.
