And once again, you fail to look past your nose. Try seeing the whole picture or did they not teach you that in econ 101?
.
I bet they didn't. It would hurt their argument.

Let's start with the first line of your post -

We know don't. You do get some things, and others you can't open your eyes.


wtf are you trying to say here?

I literally can't follow what you posted. Not with any certainty, anyway.

To the degree I can guess, though, you didn't actually argue anything. You just made unsubstantiated claims.

How exactly am I supposed to "address" that?

You realize that when you don't quote whatever it is you're responding to, I have no idea what you're talking about, right?

Is this in response to my offer of a wager?

If so, are you accepting the bet?

You retards are insane. New car prices are up 100% in 25 years and you object to a president suggesting enough is enough.

You phony focks wave the free enterprise flags as long as it suits your pocket book. But you will hire illegals and use use criminal politicians at will.

This isn't hard. You talk about econ 101. You have used that line in multiples threads in talking about tariffs.


Example, you want to say econ 101.... which Adam Smith is taught. Well not all of Adam Smith because it goes against what the globalists wanted.

You buy what you were taught, and you were not taught all of it.


Pointing out that being taught something in college does not make it correct.... and another example:

Btw, they teach socialism and social justice in universities every day. We have people graduating from it every year. Are they right simply because a college preached it to them and gave them a piece of paper?

That's in response to your short-sightedness on economic policies.

Slapping a 25% tariff on cars is a solid move to keep prices in check.




And you obviously haven't checked my history on tariffs.

Keep throwing false accusations around as it's obvious you have zero ability to think beyond "Trump good/everyone else bad"

Bro, tariffs are deflationary. Domestic producers are more likely to lower prices to claw market share than take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices. The only story here is Trump didn't need to warn anybody. They were all going to lower prices on their own.

Adam Smith and Econ 101, the stuff they didn't teach and stuff.

He's the type that Trump was targeting with his "they better not raise prices" schtick. Any price increases will be blamed 100% on the manufacturers by the Trump sycophants.

There was a guy the other day claiming that since BMW only raised prices on some cars 4% it showed they were making 29% on those cars previously or some such nonsense.

I’m constantly struck by how basic the reasoning is from so many folks around here.

Fairly predictable, though. Who didn't see "socialism ain't so bad" coming?

And you dipshits want to give them a stimulus via tariffs.

That shows how anti worker and pro corporation your movement really is.

As for Central Planning, it is YOU that wants the CCP to thrive…not me.

What do you think Trumps tariffs are, goober?

Its a stimulus for BigCorp. Its not for you, the little worker guy.

Trump doesnt understand modern economies which is why he is a Mercantilist, not a capitalist.

He has a vision of the economy which is impossible to remake.

Trump is right here, only stupid people think tariffs would be the reason car prices would go up. Manufacturers want to raise prices every year no matter what because of inflation and greed
