There is a historical precedent to deal with this problem. In WWI the British fixed exports to neutral countries (e.g. 🇸🇪, 🇳🇱) at the pre-war level to prevent re-exports to Germany.

A four-panel comic featuring NPC Wojak with a Russian flag on its forehead and a simple character discussing NATO's expansion. The NPC expresses confusion over NATO's growth, while the character explains that countries are voluntarily seeking NATO membership. The dialogue highlights their differing perspectives on geopolitical issues, with the NPC displaying irritation or disbelief by the end.

Indeed, Shoup worked hard to make his ideas palatable across the political spectrum. Are you a conservative? People should pay for the services they consume. Are you a progressive? All this unnecessary driving can’t be good for the environment. Are you a libertarian? Clearly, the solution to scarcity is prices and markets. Are you a socialist? Let’s stop privatizing the public realm by turning it into a free parking lot. As a result, the typical shoupista gathering is an oasis of peaceful coexistence.

Well shit, I never thought about the price of parking before but this eulogy for Donald Shoup is so good it turned me into a Shoupista and now I'll have to bring up the topic at the next party I attend.

I am confused, wasn’t that a false believe of E., based on what the DEA undercover agent said?
