So btw America literally is a shithole to trade with
>>60180244I kinda doubt this chonker integrated himself with workers and the peasants
>>60180244>CCP hands typed this post
>>60180244
>>60180306Ah yes bro I'm sure really want you to basically kneecap your trade even more
>>60180294He lived like one he never brushed his tweet or washed his hands lol
>>60180244The problem with your image is that under early Maoism there was no billionaire class and everyone was living under similar conditions. Trumps cuts remove the semi-privileged state bureaucrats but don't do anything about the government officials, capitalists and billionaires. not really a fair comparison
>>60180294he was literally innawoods fighting guerilla warfare for decades, I'd let myself get fat too if I did all that and won
>>60180244I had no idea about this shi. crazy stuff, man...also, from that thread:>Some carriers have said they'll just move the capacity serving the U.S. to other trade lanes altogether.>Similarly the major ports (LA, Long Beach, Houston, and New York) will be unable to keep up with the flood of extra volumes and are likely to become congested, similar to what we saw during Covid.>the original proposal is a requirement that within 7 years 15% of U.S. exports must travel on a ship that's made in America and crewed by Americans.>The U.S. did not produce any container ships in 2024. And the number we produce in any given year rounds to zero. The reason is that American made container ships of 3,000 TEUs cost the same price as the modern container ships from China of 24,000 TEUs.>One shipyard in China made more commercial ships last year than the total number the U.S. has produced since World War Two.this shit is crazy man, absolutely crazy. do these people really think the market fixes shit by magic or something?
>cant compete>so must cope by charging stupid fees at the detriment of their own peopleKek, what level of retardation
>>60180639>cant competeif china can compete why do they have massive trade barriers?
>>60180294you're clearly a 500lb fatty who never opened a book, let alone studied the ccp history
>>60180659china has apple, starbucks, tesla, and many other big companies. how many big companies in china are doing business in usa? they confiscated tiktok and banned binance, you 600lb fatty retard
>>60180712why do they have massive trade barriers though? can they compete or not?
>>60180718they don't, 500lb fatty. kys
>>60180712You forgot Huawei, the biggest threat to american tech companies
>>60180726>they don't, 500lb fatty. kyssad little chinkoid. west taiwan will collapse and youll be eating eachother within a year.
Didn't some company that carries American wing assemblies for Airbus complain about this shit? How does this help American jobs?
>>60180770Just trust the plan
>>60180757taiwan belongs to china. banana taiwanese will be re-educated, and their arrogance will be erased. you 6000lb fatties will eat cockroach powder and cockroach milk. you did this to yourselves. people like you are a product of cultural subversion, dumbed down and fattened up with ultraprocessed food, you greasy mullet magat
>>60180244It was utterly retarded for the US to ever give up its shipbuilding capability. This is exactly what is needed to reverse that stupidity.
>>60180845west taiwanese are so stupid. you will kneel and be slaves. no more american handouts for you, ricedick.
>>60180409Trump basically is making an autarkic technocracy kek
>>60180880If I wanted to rebuild American shipbuilding capability I would device a 15-year plan with tax breaks, incentives, and government contracts to do so.This looks more like what I would do if I wanted to sabotage the American economy, create rampant inflation and destroy supply lines. Sounds absolutely bonkers anon.
>>60180538>this shit is crazy man, absolutely crazy. do these people really think the market fixes shit by magic or something?The market follows economic incentive and these incentives are large enough to create shipbuilding at scale in the US.
>>60181728let me know when you can build a ship in a couple of days to solve the upcoming messdid you even try reading the thread the OP posted?
>>60181779>let me know when you can build a ship in a couple of days to solve the upcoming mess7 years?
>>60181728i think they'll just wait him out.
>>60180244both are based
>>60181821So what's supposed to happen in the meantime?Proposed plan would take effect on April 17th.
>>60180244based, we need to return to Cold War era world economy with 2 completely separate economic blocks with zero trade, muttmerica and its vassals vs BRICS shitskins
>>60180538>the original proposal is a requirement that within 7 years 15% of U.S. exports must travel on a ship that's made in America and crewed by Americans.Isn't that just the Jones Act?
>>60181884nta, but I propose to use the already existing ships in the meantime
>>60181890The issue is America is treating its vassals like shit. Why would they subject themselves to this?
>>60181890The West traded with the Eastern bloc all the time.
>>60183002social wars part 2
>>60180845Taiwan will be reintegrated as a cat girl colony.
>>60181728How many riveters are there in the US right now anon?
>>60182996What existing ships? There aren't any. Just 23 low tonnage ones. Did you read the OP?
>>60180294You should watch this:https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/sarah-paine-china
>>60180757Two more weeks
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolution_on_Certain_Questions_in_the_History_of_Our_Party_since_the_Founding_of_the_People%27s_Republic_of_China>Regarding Mao's legacy, the Resolution concludes Mao's contributions to the Chinese Communist Revolution far outweigh his mistakes. Following the Resolution, the idea that Mao was 70% correct and 30% incorrect became a common description of his legacy.
>>60180244>two quotes are absolutely nothing alikeIs this meme betting on the fact that nobody can read
>>60180639This is exactly what China has done for decades.
>>60181475Sounds great. But once you try and run it through the system, somehow the problem will get worse or the effort ends up stalling and forgotten. Sometimes in government drastic action has to be taken.
>>60180880Reminder that it was protectionist retardation like the Jones Act which destroyed the American shipbuilding industry.
