yep. i will just keep posting this every time he makes a post about this.



because you keep getting debunked yet you keep spewing the same BS over and over like the very quote above from you. you are a joke and never to be taken seriously again.

1) you are fine with us losing jobs in certain sectors and never trying to gain any back.

2) you are fine with other countries dumping on us hurting us even more price wise and business wise.

3) you hate tariffs even if used as a negotiating tool to get better trade deals.

4) you wanted all our tariffs and protections dropped but were fine with others gouging us.

5) you said tariffs were bad for us but it was ok for others since they help other countries protect products.

6) you are fine with all our trade deficits

in conclusion: you are a functional retard.

My family worked for a very large Chinese company for the better part of a decade. Their response to the tariffs...frick China! Their economy grew due to cheap labor, corporate/state espionage, monetary/market manipulation, and virtually non-existent environmental regulations. Their economy has been propped up for the last decade by domestic construction on an unprecedented scale (30-50% of GDP depending on the year). China is attempting to save face but the reality is, they cannot continue this trade war with the US in the short term. Their economy, outside of US exports, is a paper Tiger. Once the "Silk Road " trade route is running at 100% (and Europe is under the heel of the Chinese trade wise), then they will be able to to so effectively. That, however, is not now. It also is important to note that with tariffs between the US and Europe being greatly reduced, that will slow China's march into the European economy. Lastly, the Spratly Islands and control of that particular trade route is quite important. Expect Trump to use it as leverage at some point as this progresses. If we allow China to bully us, then shame on US. FWIW, part of my concern is a high level of respect that I hold China in. My .02.

So tariffs didn't work?

These tariffs are a theft tax and the US has more leverage with a strong economy and the Chinese economy is not doing so well right now.

Well, we pay the cost of tariffs.

I don't really have an issue with people who claim trump is bluffing but most here think tariffs are a good thing, which is nonsense.

A few even believe trade with China should be cut off

Is that even possible?

There has never been a single war in history where one side did not take any losses.

They're not a good thing.

They're just simply a necessary thing to confront China on their thieving tactics that's a national security threat to the United States.

Well, imposing tariffs are more like bombing yourself.

Trade deficits aren't really a major problem for the USA. Also, tariffs aren't going to stop the theft of intellectual property

They're a theft tax with the added leverage of a strong american economy and Chinese economy that's not doing well right now.

I have always oppose farm welfare. It is not a new position for me.

What is appropriate now is criticism of Trump for creating new additional farm welfare because of his trade war.
