The world reacts to Trump's sweeping tariffs: 'No basis in logic'
-
These penguins managed to put USA into trade deficit with the island somehow?
-
Rip my year-old IRA
-
Trump's government has made the US a village idiot - and if the idiot gets into a fight with the whole village, the idiot will have more bruises.
Why he does that - I don't pretend to understand.
-
And we'll all be destitute for it. Everyone loses when they do this, yes, even they do in the long run. Once nobody can buy a loaf of bread I'm sure we'll collectively decide right at that moment that the rich actually do taste good and maybe they should pay more in taxes.

Trump basically ran his mouth, realized he had to drop something, whip some crap together, took a dump in the living room and left for the golf field... exactly what MAGAtards wanted, hope you are enjoying it
-
They should tariff Israel a lot more
-
We'll have to see if that holds true after people watch their requirements get obliterated by a drastic drop in stock values across the board. Biden didn't do enough to show the people that the economy was doing well and recovering better than other countries under his watch. Trump won't be able to pin this downward economic trend on Biden cause it happened too fast and multiple sources have cited the import tax, or fear of them, at the reason for the stock market tanking.
It's owning the libs is so important that tRump voters will still vote for the ones actively hurting them, then those people are truly beyond help.
-
He's trying to destroy the country. Amassing as many bruises as possible is the point.
-
Who is going to invest many millions in setting up a business to make something when they have no idea what fuck-nugget will do next week that might fuck them over? Where are they going to source the raw materials when no one will want to trade those materials to a market that wants to fuck them over? How are Americans going to pay for these goods that will be more expensive than they are under the previous set up? This is abject stupidity.
-
Meh, I think it's fine and good for countries to specialize and be dependent on each other. Keeps the peace through mutually assured economic destruction. Global upticks in isolationism preceded the World Wars. Also, it just makes sense, because different countries have different resources, and their populations are differently skilled.
-
Can we stop winning already? I'm tired of winning so much.
-
Americans are trained from birth to value ignorance as the greatest virtue. Donald Trump represents everything that American culture venerates.
-
Companies will raise prices to account for what they're losing on the tariffs.

Acting like you're smarter than the people you're talking to while missing the very obvious point that we're not starting from nothing. Being pedantic about me referring to piracy by what it's called now doesn't change how impractical it would be to have no ownership at all of ideas. Why would anyone pay for content at all?
Your "solution" means no one can make a living doing creative things. The current system has flaws that can be fixed. "No system at all" is worse for literally everyone involved, both creators and consumers of said content.
You should stop publicly felating yourself over how unshackled your mind is, since this idea is so incredibly stupid.
-
Yeah. That's how it works. If you don't get involved you effectively support the party that wins. Lol
-
Sure they are, as long as foreign nationals pay their own taxes with them.

Yeah, I'm going to ignore you after this. You're too far behind and I can't be arsed to bring you up to speed.
For everyone else, this commenter clearly doesn't understand that without copyright and patent laws, hollywood won't be able to restrict access to their content behind artificial scarcity. Anyone will be allowed to share their movies freely, which will have a direct impact on their bottom line.
This is why corporations like copyright and patent laws. It's also another example of how useful idiots have been conditioned to work against their own interests and fight anyone who fights back.
