A Brief Lesson on Tariffs

Tariffs always cost more jobs than they create, what don’t you get?
Then why dew other countries place tariffs on the US?
For the tax dollars.
So it’s good for other countries to place tariffs on the US and for there to be huge trade deficits and that’s good for the US? Why?
You understand we have to largest economy in the world? Other countries can stunt their economy if they want. Economists agree tariffs are bad.
You understand China is rapidly overcoming our economy?
All their pollution is slowing them. They are the favorite cheapest supplier, but that can change quickly and then they slow...
 
Librards are unbelievable they bitch about rich CEOs sending good paying jobs overseas, then bitch about tariffs to create/ keep jobs here.. because it will cost more.. you can't have it both ways.

I see you refuse to study and acknowledge US history and tariffs in the 1800s why is that?
I have. I have studied many years. Many blame tariffs for the Great Depression. Why go back to the 1800s when we have recent failures to reference? Bush steel tariffs were a disaster.


If you did you would know tariffs built this country. Once again we didn't have a federal income tax to what 1913?
Yes, no need for tariffs with an income tax. You think more taxes is good?
 
Can someone start by telling me how it is good for America to have huge trade deficits? Why is that desirable to the left?

It is trade... US has money and they want goods, so they buy them...

You personally have a trade deficit with Wal Mart.

Actually it used to be the left that that argued for tarrifs and Right were about free trade...

Yup now that Trump is president liberals are against them and this is hilarious
 
You should contact Canada, EU and China than and tell the sob's to decrease their tariffs, we both agree they are bad!
Those nations hurt themselves with their tariffs far more than America. Consider the EU, that has almost double the population of the U.S. but cannot match its GDP. Same with Canada, with a worse GDP per capita. Then China, with a far worse GDP per capita and hundreds of millions living in conditions that the average American would consider atrocious.


Well, then why are they increasing tariffs now in retaliation?

They cannot compete with America in and apples to apples comparison, they have to cheat, lie, misrepresent, act covertly and quietly against you and use the media and global socialist influence to convince America that these countries are your "allies".

I really want someone to define ally for me, I can tell you I can define enemy very easily.
They increase tariffs because that's how trade wars work. You make something more expensive for me (and, stupidly, for yourself as well), so I make something more expensive for you. We all lose. Chinese taxpayers used to pay for part of your new solar panel, but now if you want that solar panel the U.S. government is forcing to pay a hefty tax on it or to buy more expensive ones from the U.S. You'll have to let several employees go, cancel some projects, work with lesser profits, and be less competitive against fossil fuels, but oh well. All this makes you want a drink. At the store, you realize the price of your favorite beer is a higher than before. Wasn't there something in the news about aluminum tariffs?
That sounds like the effects of the $15.00 an hour minimum but ewe championed that right?
Where did I champion them? Go play somewhere, retard.

So you think higher taxes grows an economy?

The same could be said about a higher minimum wage, that you refuse to admit.
