He ran a campaign on it because it was ALREADY occurring, and he was against it. As I said earlier, it began around 1990, that’s when Walmart stop having Made in America banners all over the store and quietly started shifting to primarily imported inventory.

People were complaining wages were not keeping up, sound familiar? The solution was flood the market with imports so your not rising wages went further. Bush set it into motion, Clinton just followed that lead.

Won't answer my question, got it. Just deflection..

You’ll get no argument from me on that. The Bushes are new world order, globalist pieces of shit.
 
who cares about tariffs
he's going to leverage them all until they cave in and obey.
they need us. we don't need them.

Yeah because you two guys are the voice of common sense when it comes to national economics.

Think I’ll trust the guy that’s made millions, lost them and made them again over random internet liberals. Maybe you two could give us all a primer on the great Obama and Biden economic plans ?

Not a liberal by any means, I'm as moderate as you could get. In fact I've voted Republican for President more than Democrat. But yeah If you consider anyone that disagrees with you a liberal, have fun. Btw/ that guy made millions by ripping people off, declaring bankruptcy, a TV show and not paying his taxes. Oh I don't know, I generally consider brilliant businessmen people who don't declare bankruptcy 6 times but you know, whatever.

My point was very simple, American Manufacturing declined over decades, and to resurrect it will take decades if at all possible. Not pointing the finger at any party in this instance. Understand this, many US owned companies have to outsource right now because it many instances there is no US manufacturing that even make their products. It doesn't exist anymore. That is not an over night fix or a tariff fix unless you want tariffs to last decades. And who loses there? We do, the American consumer. Make no mistake, I buy American as much as I possibly can, I would prefer to buy everything American but that is not the world we live in and fixing it goes far beyond a tariff war with two of your biggest trading partners. And here's the thing, there is nothing political about what I just said, it's just fact. Facts aren't political, they're just facts.

Btw/ my bad for responding to anything political on here, sad that it has crept into one of the few boards I enjoy anymore. And that is on me for perpetuating it.

Grown ups don’t require direct messaging, that is usually saved for children and imbeciles. Ever been in a Board meeting? Didn’t think so. Anyways, it was nice blocking you.

Businesses file chapter 11 to restructure all the time. He did not personally file.

Yes and that is the way some people become or stay rich. Sorry, way to many businessman have gotten rich doing it the right way to use him as an example.

What do I suggest, I don't know. I'm not an economist, neither is he but virtually ever economist has said, this isn't the way to do it.

I'll leave it at that.

Well, until an "economist" comes up with a better option, I say let it rip. Other countries have been leeching off the US for WAY too long now. Laying down and just going with the flow is not an option anymore. Our country has been driven into what seems unrecoverable deficit. It's time to be selfish for a while.
