You've been against the tarrifs from the day I joined this board.


The tariffs are taxes placed on Americans by our government who elect to buy goods from China.

I don't know when you joined the board but I know I have been against our government taking the work and toil of Americans FOREVER.

Some people are too dense to understand that.

IB, you defend China all the time because your shitty company depends on Chinese steel and money is your god. What makes it detestable is you constantly dress it as “defending the american citizen!” in some sort of warped virtue signal.

You and our political and economic elite’s service to mammon has completely hollowed out Middle America by replacing $60k factory jobs with $20k service jobs and making the entire country's supply lines tremendously vulnerable to catastrophe. You claim this is worth it because Americans can save a dime on a case of beer because the aluminum came from an Asian slave pit.

Having our critical supply lines dependent on communist China is an absolute disaster. Anyone that was ever on the fence can see that now with this plague brought upon us by your chink overlords. You say you never defend them, but you shite up this topic to shamelessly defend their disgusting wet markets of all things.

People like you are traitors to America and in a just world you would be the first to hang.

Lets assume you're correct. Tariffs cause price of said good to incease.

Now at new tariff price of said good could be made in the good ole US of A at the same price or cheaper and create jobs here . What say you chinaman?

Plus in times like we are in at the moment we wouldn't be wondering where we are gonna get our shite from. Medicine ring a bell? But some people are to dense to understand
