Tariffs are going to kill us all!!!

[vraiblonde]

I'd like to see one of the Demtards explain why we shouldn't be charging the same tariff rate other countries charge us. Trump laid it out last night and it makes perfect sense. Why do we have to be the global piggybank?

Explain to me why reciprocal tariffs are such a horrible thing?

I absolutely never understood that line of thinking.

Personally I hate the "we are a service based economy" line of thinking.

Creating 1 service job, creates one service job, creating 1 manufacturing job creates 5-8 related service jobs.

We need to make things or use our natural resources to be a healthy economy.

Speaking of natural resources. Trump isn't loaning out our money until he gets a deal on the resources of the borrower.

The tariffs are not a horrible thing, and they can level the global playing field. As long as people realize that those costs will be passed on to the consumer. It's just like dems who said that the increase in minimum wage did not hurt the consumer. Hell yes, it does. It increases the bottom line product because the company passes on the cost to those who eventually buy the product.

The idea is that they move manufacture here to avoid the tariffs, which creates jobs and is good for the country.

And now there are a ton of able bodied workers to fill all those jobs immediately.

And if Mexicans and Central Americans want to come here to work, I have no heartburn with that but they have to do it legally, and they can't bring drugs and sex slaves with them.

It's such a simple and reasonable request that the Democrats look like even bigger fools to oppose it.
