When have price controls worked?

I've asked a half dozen times and not one of you seem to know.

Nothing about our trade with China is free market

Free market trade is two free market capitalist nations trading with one another by selllng goods in excess and buying goods in shortage

We never should have opened trade with a communist regime like China in the first place

Slick Willie Clinton has even apologized for providing China with the opportunity to wreak havoc on world society.

What goods specifically are getting price floors? Besides the argument that price floors don’t work (which is true)—I’m not even really sure what the policy objective is here?

That's the plan, but it's a pretty tiny target to only hurt China and not ourselves as well in the process. Get it wrong and we're the ones with a surplus of goods that the government would likely have to cover with tax money.

I agree, Barney. Trump is trying to combat socialist price controls and slave labor, which China has been using for decades to destroy American manufacturing and production. Aided by American businessmen and politicians who are fine with destroying American manufacturing, as long as there’s good profit in it.

It’s the Wal-Mart model. Destroy your competition with low prices until you own the market. Then you can charge whatever you want.

So when they say price floors, do they mean anti-dumping duties on Chinese imports?

Except we're discussing floors, which usually artificially raise prices. The goal is to force China to "charge" as much or more for goods as we do, thereby reducing demand for Chinese goods.

It would hurt us, at the very least with inflation by policy. If we're ok with pain, it could absolutely crush China.

Same concept you noted, but backerds

by becoming socialist.

MAGA wants a soviet style economy, period. Y'all just arent educated enough to understand what that is.

In two days you people have advocated for more state ownership of the means of production and price controls.

Societ style economics. Isolation, protection.

No prophecy is being fulfilled... The only thing being fulfilled is your knee jerk tendencies toward TDS melts. This is one of the better ones I can recall seeing from you.
