I’ll have you know that due to inflation $5 is no longer a reasonable price even for a very cheap wrench!

Tariffs on imported steel products. Perhaps the most ironic adversary of the $5 wrench strategy.

It's the government, I'm sure the wrench will cost $50,000 and some oligarch will be taking 99% of that as a back hander.
