>Trump gets into a trade war with China.>China stops buying American crops.>Argentine farmers fill the gap, screwing US farmers out of billions.>Trump then sends $20 billion to help out Argentina's economy.America First! MAGA!
>>517653924Kek
>>517653924Why is USA growing saybeans for CHINA at all?
>>517653924don't forget this commie pigfuck also said he was going to "redistribute" tariff money towards farmers
>>517654772Let me explain something your little brain just doesn't comprehend. You can work to provide a good or service for a profit. Even better if you can sell that good or service to a different country as you take money out of their economy and out it into yours. The mote you do this the more money your country has and the stronger your economy is. The stronger your economy is the more resources, goods and services you can buy or provide to your own country to better it.
>>517653924Canadian farmers doing great as well
The American conservatives love to antagonise their Chinese cutomers.The American liberals love to antagonise their Videogame cutomers.They have so much in common, and both of them are going bankrupt for antagonising their cutomers.
>>517656178>CanadianTheir Canola can no longer be sold to China because they have an issue with ban on Chinese cars.
>>517656125>listen hereYes that is all well and that situation can exist in free trade, but not where a country is utilizing slave labor, and command economics. >line go up, bar go upBut at the cost of my fellow countrymen competing for slave wages and a slave's life. That might be acceptable for you bong bro, but not me.
>>517654772We grow basedbeans for everyone.
>>517653924Your entire premise is wrong because you are missing the point bro.>Trump gets into a trade war with China.This is where Trump fucked up. A "trade war" hurts both sides by definition, as trade benefits both sides.If I want to buy a foreign product, I prefer the product over the money it costs, and it benefits me to buy it. And I don't want some stupid politician forcing me to buy an alternative because he thinks it's better for the country (clearly not for me). If the other side has tariffs on our products, it's their problem.>China stops buying American crops.If they weren't buying argentinian crops in the first place, then they must be a worse alternative, by price or quality. So the chinese shot themselves in the foot too. Doesn't surprise me from a commie government.>Argentine farmers fill the gap, screwing US farmers out of billions.Optimally, argentinian production should not go into making something that they are less efficient at than americans. But this is what happens when stupid politicians interfere with the economy.>Trump then sends $20 billion to help out Argentina's economy.Because they want a government that is friendly to them in Argentina, and they know that they will probably lose the next elections without that help. The current argentinian government's popular support heavily relies on promises of improving the economy with politics based on economic theory, instead of interventions and inflation. However, investors know the opposition may win the next elections and not pay back public debt, so they have to pay very high interests on their debt, and that is a threat for their entire agenda. This is why they need those 20 billion, and in exchange, Trump gets a government in Argentina that will be supportive to him.If Trump cared about the economy, there would be no trade war in the first place, because like I said, trade is good for both sides.
>>517658844By this I mean, it's not that Trump is not doing well on the trade war, or wasn't tough enough, or didn't calculate well, or anything. The "trade war" is the problem (as well as the stupid reciprocal tariffs from our side).
>>517658844>If they weren't buying argentinian crops in the first place, then they must be a worse alternative, by price or quality.Nah. Milei lifted some export tariffs, so now the Argntinian beans ar cheaper.Know-it-all dumbfucks like you should tone down the arrogance.>A "trade war" hurts both sides by definitionKEK
>>517659691I just found out about the lifted export tariff, didn't know that.Oh no! My entire point is wrong! I should've known, I look like an idiot now!Kek. You got caught up on that because you are a midwit simpleton, average guy posting stupid opinions on the internet. What I said is still solid. And it is true that trade benefits both sides and only stupid politicians prevent it.>If they weren't buying argentinian crops in the first place, then they must be a worse alternative, by price or quality. So the chinese shot themselves in the foot too. Doesn't surprise me from a commie government.This could just be changed to "If, without the original argentinian tariff, american crops are worse by price or quality, then it never made sense to buy american crops in the first place"
>>517660174>And it is true that trade benefits both sidesBut if the Mutt side want to drown Asia in war, it's actually beneficial to China that Mutts destroy themselves first.Then the rest of Asia can develop.
>>517660413you should not look at things in terms of who is stronger or who can win a war, but in terms of how can people live better lives
>>517654772For money.
>>517660735I don't think Asia can develop properly until the europan race gets trounced and forced to stop investing into wars.>but in terms of how can people live better livesTo stop the wars, we have to behead the 7 snakes in G7.
>>517654772Because they’re the only market who buys them at that scale no one else eats that shit but East Asians and we already grow it for cattle feed
>>517656125I guess we'll have to discount cattle feed then after redirecting surplus basedbeans to the fodder market. That might make meat prices come down as more ranchers replenish herds for slaughter.That sounds horrible
>>517656125>The stronger your economy isBy selling bãsedboytofu to feed the world's largest army you probably will get into a war with in the next few yearsAmazing bong logic, may as well start selling beef to Russians on the Ukrainian front line too, gotta keep them fed through winter.
>>517656855>because they have an issue with ban on Chinese cars.And take a wild guess on why Canada banned Chinese EVs. I wonder who could had forced them into the ban ....
americans will have to eat all that s o y now
>>517656125>The mote you do this the more money your country has and the stronger your economy is.This is pre adam smith conception of trade
>>517663820They'll stuff them in burger patties.
>>517663640If you actually thought there was risk of war with China, then you would want them to be dependant on American food exports. Cutting them off in peacetime gives them a chance to find other sources and improve their output by the time a war happens.
>>517654925Trump will go down in history as the worst fuckup ever
>>517653924Just sell in the domestic market.> But the price will fallGreat this is how capitalism should work: cheaper price.
