No no no he is going to stop all taxes, pay off the national debt, bring manufacturing back to the US, and build a Nazi mars base for Elon.

Obviously I want to see Trump fail spectacularly, but it fucking sucks that would harm those of us who can least afford it.

I thought that was the plan....

I'll enjoy seeing the US go down.

Yep, Vance is in a way more dangerous than Trump. Trump might throw wrenches in the fascists' plans by either blurting them out proudly thinking it was his idea or by being too afraid of being unpopular (which he is obviously obsessed with) and taking back some of the changes due to public pressure. Vance on the other hand will be just a hand puppet for Putin and/or Musk.

Fun fact: Under Hitler, while there was an economic boom (due to production switching to war preparation), wages fell on Great Depression levels and workers had to work a lot more hours. Germany was also deeply in debt, because most of this was financed by crazy lending from other countries, which Hitler had no intention of paying back.

You may have misunderstood the article.

There's a trade agreement that says no tarrifs in exchange for respecting IP which includes not breaking digital locks.

If the agreement is out then there's nothing preventing Canada from allowing their citizens to circumvent restrictions against repairing their own tractors for example.

Pfft... just buy some $TRUMP crypto coin. The graft is all out in the open now.

I think this has passed a lot of people by. When Trump announced his crypto scheme he was saying to the world "This is how you buy the power of the president with no paper trail". Foreign powers can funnel billions through it for favours.

It's corruption on a unprecedented scale, even for a political system that runs on continual "fund-raising".

Exactly. No one is thinking "right this is our big chance to build a toothbrush factory".

Setting aside the tariffs on the production line you need to buy from China...

All your precursor would need to come from China anyway.

Couple that with the cost of maintaining local safety regs and I'd be surprised if you could put a product on super market shelves thats cheaper than the tariffed one.

If they really wanted this to work it should be something like a steadily increasing tariff over time instead of 25% right off the bat. But I don't think they really care about it working as intended.

Many Americans thought the foreign country paid the tariffs, so forgive me if I disagree that my country is capable of that level of thought.

Mama didn't love him, now he's a grumpy old man with grievances.

Do you honestly think that reducing the cost of fixing a tractor will reduce the cost of agricultural production by 25% across the board?

I’d use the term mountains loosely when describing Athens, Ohio.

That said, it is pretty with some great natural rock formations at Hocking Hills.

Keep going higher, i bet Canada imports more from US than exports.

[email protected]

Unfortunately, a lot of people are saying they think the county of origin pays the tariff and not the importer.

Those were the days. We all wished for that pretzel to have been a little bigger, a little dryer. But somehow it didn't work out. But, it could happen again! Lightning can strike twice in the same spot. Or lightning can strike in two or more spots separately non-dependently.

You're right. I'm just wishful thinking.

Maybe just hemorrhoids. That would be lovely! .... ESPN:And the president just got up again in another awkward gesture of disrespect! He seems in pain after all the points Bernie made......Trump:oh shit! Here comes the pain again! Fine fine! I'll sign if we can all leave quickly!
