Are you okay? Seems you have the memory of pot head gnat's ass going thru a windshield.
Oh look a geezer thread. Literally who.Get into the grave old man
>he was right Well he wasn't because the tariffs did jack shit to restore American manufacturing. Bernie saw that and changed his mind.
>>546272388Bernie was talking about tariffs on shit we actually could have made in 2008. Dump just put a tariff on literally everything totally irrespective of our own ability to manufacture it. Fucking retard
Its pretty simple. Tariffs carefully crafted by policy wonks for specific outcomes GOOD, and emergency tariffs of arbitrary numbers to punish people the president doesn't like this week BAD
if you want to implement protectionism you cant just use tariffs alone. you have to heavily subsidize manufacturing. by the way, americans refuse to work in factories or let them be constructed in our neighborhoods anyway :)
>>546274204>tariffs of arbitrary numbers to punish people the president doesn't like this week BADTrump used tariffs as bargaining chips, and as retaliation for PAST abuses by other nations.EU subsidized Airbus 2:1 over Boeing.China simply bypasses tariffs by "shipping" through a proxy nation.
>>546274231Americans have constantly been noted to prefer working in factories over shitty retail or service part times jobs, this is nonsense.
>>546272388BERNIE ARE YOU OKAY ARE YOU OKAY ARE YOU OKAY BERNIE?
>>546274231>le americans are so lazy they wouldn't do a manual labor jobso fucking tired of hearing this shit, they won't do it for $11/hr and that's it
>>546273691And used Tarrifs to force other nations to accept jared kushner's business "deals". There's no way there isn't solid evidence of this collusion somebody is sitting on.
>>546274231They just want to be like zach from saved by the bell :)
