I was simply providing a personal anecdote. I actyally do wanr harria not trumo but then again i dont get a vote.
U guys need more industry to combat china and the growing global decent. If the cost of increasing ur and ur allies (me) industry is poorer poor people in ur country thats not really my problem. Why does it make the rest of the world more reliant on china u cannot propose an effect without justification of how its a result of the cause.
If ur not a citizen and dont have a visa then u have no rights to stay. The courts wont let him deport legal immigrants but maybe legal immigrants are different to legal immigrants. Also if the forced removal (deportation) of people who are illegally in an area is ethnic clensing then ukraine forcfully removing Russians from their territory is ethnic cleansing. Ur take sounds like doublethink assuming u support ukraine.
Sure. They still committed atrocities while they where a democraticly elected government tho.
I guess we will find out the next time the Israelis go vote.
Thats my point and why i brought up israel Palestine. Whatever ur opunion it forces you to aknowlege this fact.
If people can't trade with Americe, due to Trump's trade wars, they will become more reliant on the world's other major industrial exporter, which is China. It will do nothing to improve manfacturing elsewhere, including in the US. The point of economic policy is to make people wealthier. If it makes them poorer, which you seem to acknowledge it will, it's a bad policy.
Fighting an invading force is not ethnic cleansing. I don't know why you think it is.
Only people who are being tariffed
The point of a trade war is to apply taxes to imported goods thus giving local industry an oppertunity to compete with imports at a fair market price. Manufacturing in the western world costs more due to no slave labour worker protections etc, u tariff imports to account for this additional price that u dont pay for manufacturing in china etc. As America represents the interests of most of the western world this also means my countries goods we be more competitive in the american (and global western) market.
The point of economic policy is to improve the economy (not the people). American international evonomic policy is just as much about ensuring global security and the liberty we all enjoy. Poor people in the short term in exchange for many more jobs and actuall material goods being produced in the future is still the better decision.
I dont think it is thats the point. How would u classify "invading force"? Cos some people would classify illegal immigrants as such so whats the difference?
Per Trump's plan, that's everyone.
This is completely backwards. There's no abstraction called the economy which doesn't involve people.
Those people are wrong.
Even Americas allies?
It doesnt nessasarilly need to be all people tho. Just the educated and hard working ones. The economy doesnt need to give a fuck about the rest.
Again one cannot simply assert something to be true, you must justify your argument. Whats the difference between an invading force and illegal immigrants?
Yes, even America's allies.
If everyone in America's prices go up, that's bad for the economy. That's what Trump is promising.
I don't need to explain to you the difference between someone staying where they are after their visa expires and an armed invasion of another country. The differences are manifest and anyone who says they don't see them is lying.
