My God.  The Covidians truly didn’t understand the ramifications of shutting everything down while pumping 8 trillion into the economy - and more - during Covid.

You need to use a somewhat complete sentence when you speak for people to understand what you're saying.

‘It’s a Disaster’: Global Markets Slide After Trump Unveils Tariffs

Trump clearly referencing the pearl clutching of 4th&Gone
 

 

"In the coming days, there will be complaints from the globalists, the outsourcers, special interests, and Fake News... Never forget that every prediction our opponents made about trade for the last 30 years has been proven totally wrong. They were wrong about NAFTA, they were wrong about China, they were wrong about the Trans Pacific Partnership... In my first term, they said tariffs would crash the economy. Instead, we built the greatest economy in the history of the world."

[Tenhigh]

This is such an interesting subject from an economic perspective, too bad all we can do is flame away at each other. 

Honestly it's ballsy gambit. This is how I see it:

Historically our exports are generally tarriffed/taxed at a higher rate than we are charging on imports.  Combined with generally lower environmental regulatory standards by some of our biggest trade partners (well, motlstly one giant smoggy one), it creates a really unequal playing field for American producers.  

 

 

But what are the potential outcomes of this trade war beyond increased short term prices? It's a hell of a question.   Some bad, some neutral, some great. 

 

 

 

[Big Blitz]

 

Yep.  
 

AI is going to make this possible. 
 

You aren’t being told everything.  

 

 

 

Musk said it would be an age of abundance due to advances in AI

 

The swamp however is terrified of this bc the tax system is how they control you.  
 

 

LIBERATION DAY.

I'm going to rob a bank. 

 

Before I rob the bank, I'm going to say, watch this, in the coming weeks people will be complaining of money being stolen and theft. They just don't understand the greater purpose of why we are robbing the bank.   

 

Then people like yourself, who struggle with independent considerations, can go see, my leader told me this would happen and yes, it's happening. My leader was right. 

 

I imagine you would win a race to the Kool-aid

OMG.  the budget is going to have a 3 trillion dollar deficit because of tax CUTS on the wealthy.  And we are magically going to eliminate income tax  and balance the budget?  Stupid people like you are destroying our country and our economy.  This is total fantasy and you people buy it, no questions asked.

I'm not an economist. Wouldn't pretend to be. This is a global economy with so many nuisances it's virtually impossible for the normal person to understand the full implications of everything that will happen from this. When it comes to situations I can grasp more clearly but are still very complicated, especially when the stakes are high, I'm cautious. If I can't see what's around the corner then it's not very safe to slam the gas pedal. I would expect the same behavior from the president of the United States when it comes to our livelihood.

 

What Trump has done with this is unconscionable. This is the most powerful country in the world, the most wealthy, still economically positioned better than the majority of the countries in the world. He decided to take an action that has the potential to have catastrophic consequences on the US. It wasn't a situation with the US on the brink of war or being forced to make a move so drastic. He did so as if this move would have no risk and only reward. It's beyond short sited, especially when all the leading experts are throwing caution to the wind.

In 2020, they said that Trump was cruel and heartless for not giving every person $6000 multiple times in a stimulus package instead of $1400. Then 3 years later, it was his fault for spending recklessly, deliberately being oblivious to the fact that it would have been worse if they got what they wanted. There is no reasoning with them.

The orange ass hat says there would not have been a great depression if they had tariffs. What a *****en moron. Get an education. Ops.

I see the value of tariffs in small doses, but personally think that this is way too much too fast. We didn't get to this level of debt overnight, and it will take more than one decision or even one year of decisions to get us out. The level of success or failure for this will depend on other countries and whether they are willing to negotiate or whether they call his bluff and retaliate (I wouldn't put it past far left celebrities and extremist activists to beg other country leaders to do the latter.)

 

If it is the first scenario, he looks brilliant, if it is not, it could create a mess and essentially guarantee democrat wins in two and four years. Since we were all told to "give it more time", three years into Biden's term, I can give it at least a couple of months before i pass full judgment.

Increased short term prices? What makes you think those prices are coming back down?

She had a three tiered strategy of Comparing Trump to Hitler, being as vague and secretive as possible when rolling out her agendas, and copious amounts of giggling and word salads.

If I drive drunk and crash into a tree does it make it better that I planned on doing it or was I better off staying at home and ultimately watching TV because I didn't know what I wanted to do?
