Let me tell you what tariffs do: we place a tariff on imported products from China. China in return puts a tariff on our exported products and it ends up being a wash.
I don't want to take away from the objective of this thread and redirect it......but, it's NOT a "wash" based on the dollars we import and export:
Which supports what I stated: It's difficult enough to sell our products overseas due to the US manufacturing costs. If our exported products were taxed in retaliation to our import tariffs, then the situation would become worse.

Again, this is off topic, but since I'm a simple man, this is what I notice in the above chart of imports/exports"
We import $92 billion of pharmaceutical....but export only $51
We import $247 B of oil products....while exporting $61B
Ergo, we should manufacture here an additional $90 B or so of pharmas, and stop exporting our $61 B of oil products thereby cutting our imports of them to $186B or so.
the same way they make a profit on all goods?Which supports what I stated: It's difficult enough to sell our products overseas due to the US manufacturing costs. If our exported products were taxed in retaliation to our import tariffs, then the situation would become worse.

Wait--how are companies going to make a profit?
Last night is pretty easy to judge. The more bullcrap the RW's make up about it, the better the Dems did.
so far, they must have done pretty well.
Here is a synopsis of the debate.
"Hillary, you are so wonderful. Why is the world keep talking about those illegal e-mails that gave away government secrets? Hillary, we love you with all our hearts! Appoint us, we need jobs!!"
There was no debate. A debate demands a difference of opinion in some form or fashion.
First, you may have chosen to miss that I CLEARLY stated that Clinton is not my favorite candidate.....
Second, there WAS disagreement over the NRA strangle hold on congress; disagreement over the Glass-Steagal; disagreement over extending the ACA.....
Your problem is that since the disagreements were done CIVILY, you missed them......Sounds that you like food=fights over actual issue-based debates.
That was, as the Donald would say, a very low-energy affair.

I agree.
None of them came out of it looking like a winner. And none of them talked about what matters and the plans they have for what they didn't talk about.
No winners in that debate.

LOL, a perfect description of both Republican debates; The Dems debate was substantive, as everyone with both feet in reality understand.

Your perspective of substantive must be uniquely non-dimensional.
Just because you agree with something does not render it "substantive".
Is there something seriously wrong you? I mean beyond just being a hack.That was, as the Donald would say, a very low-energy affair.

Hmmm, a good point but off the mark. Look in the mirror first, then point fingers.
a. NRA
b. Climate Change
c. Income inequality
d. High cost of higher education
e. Institutional racism
f. Income tax reform
g. Equal pay for equal work
h. Diplomacy first, fire power only when necessary
j. Criminal justice reform
k. Comprehensive Immigration reform
Are examples of substantive issues. Now, let's examine the GOP debate:
1. Round up 11 Million Aliens and sent them back to where they came from.
2. Might makes right - neo cons r us.
3. More guns for everyone
4. Repeal Obamacare
5. Ain't Obama, Clinton, Awful
6. Bush has no energy
7. Build a wall.
8. Take our country back
9. Tax the working poor more; cut taxes for corporations & the wealthy

f. Income tax reform - Steal from the makers, give to the takers. Screw the middle class, and to hell with investment and job creation.

There is nothing worse than someone (like you) that gets consistently screwed.....and actually starting to like it.
Just on the above cited issue, we've had "trickle down economics", and we got screwed....
then we've had the infamous GWB's tax breaks for the rich to create jobs, and we got screwed....
finally we had the GOP taking over congress on a platform of "jobs, jobs, jobs"....and we got screwed
Some of us are a bit "sore" from being screwed....YOU, on the other hand, kind of like bending over.
since Progressives have been in charge the very richest got richer and the very poorest got poorer; BOTH AT A FASTER PACE UNDER PROGRESSIVES

The above from someone who has his TV remote stuck on FOX.......So, "progressives" have been in charge?
