Why other countries using tariffs works great for them, and yet it’s not a “trade war”. But if we do it, it’s bad and it’s suddenly a “trade war”.By the way, you still haven’t answered the question. All you can do is deflect.
What question is that?
Because other countries are far more socialist than we are, and tariffs are about controlling the economy.
Tariffs work great in China because they are a Socialist Market Economy and the government controls much of the economy.
Do you wish our government to become more like theirs?
horseshit, tariffs are about protecting industries within the country by making foreign products less price competitive. But I guess you are ok with Chinese companies (the Chinese government) making profits at the expense of American companies?
But only the industries chosen by the government to get "protection", other industries are fucked because they things they need for their industries are now costing more.
If American companies cannot compete, how is that my problem? Why should I be punished and made to pay more to cover for their failures?
Tariffs have been used wherever a foreign country tries to sell its products in the USA at prices lower than a US company can sell for.
Its about protecting US jobs and companies in the USA. Why is that a bad thing to do?
