-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Serious question - has China had any significant problems due to Trump's idiotic tariffs?
Decrease in trade, some factories slowed production iirc. Nothing they aren't capable of living without
It turns out having both mineral extraction capability and industrial production capacity is really good
Maybe the federal government on a full bipartisan level and Insane Clown Posse have something in common. Magnets. How do they work?
I have a friend who is friends with someone looking to be an Olympic archer there and she was complaining about how most of the best bows were American and very expensive now... It's very niche though lol. Seems most of what America exports is specialty products
I remember economy lecture in university where i heard that it's easy to gauge the unequal development of countries. You just need to compare their mutual trade.
Few days ago i seen that what US exports to China is mostly raw foods (but not even staple ones) and what it imports is mostly industrial products and electronics.
Overall US trade accounts for something like 2% of the overall economy in China, so just based on that there fundamentally can't be a huge impact. On top of that, the US is fighting a trade war with the whole world, and as a result it's creating new trade niches for China. Latest data shows that Chinese trade was actually up 5.6 % in April.
