Live updates: Trump announces sweeping tariffs
-
This and a hundred other issues would be settled in the process of negotiating the breakup. Odds are only a handful of states would want them, as only a handful would have the economic base to support their upkeep. Nukes are expensive as hell to build and maintain. New York, California, Texas, etc. Like any divorce, you have to negotiate and find a way of dividing communal property.

Project 2025 says he wants to have tariffs removed against the US. Assuming he's really following it.

If we actually want manufacturing in the U.S., give companies incentives to do business here
Like the CHIPS act? The EV and related items? Infrastructure? High speed rail (most of which has a made in us requirement)? What happened to those again?
-
That’s probably why you’re not the president.

Damn, I'd like to see the data on that.

Sick history reference.
-
um, yeah. we heard you the first 5 times, why do you keep reposting the same comment over and over?
-
Boycott the USA. Do not consume American products. Do not travel to the US. Cancel your subscriptions, find alternatives or pirate their software and media. Make Americans tourists feel unwelcome.

Like for brooms and shit?

From an electrical engineering perspective H O S E D. Historically, “Oh you want to manufacture something cheaply but can’t due to IP issues or CCP conflicts of interests? Why not Malaysia, Vietnam or the Philippines?”
People got to realize this is gonna jack up the supply chain so hard. Texas Instruments an IC manufacturer produces some stuff in texas. If my production is in Malaysia then surprise! Tariff to send components to Malaysia. But wait, programming, testing, packaging, and inventory of the boards is in the USA. So the PCBA is surprise surprise Tariff again. Now that the board is considered finished and ready to be sold, it turns out your customer is in china or anywhere else in the world…. So tariff. These Tariffs compound. The business isn’t going to foot the bill so its gonna get pushed to customers.
I am really curious how the TSMC foundry in AZ is gonna work out. They can produce the wafers but packaging is done still in Taiwan. So tariff to Taiwan , tariff again back to the USA, and the tariff again because its an advanced electronic component?

But like, could I come visit if I need to seek asylum? That would be different than tourism, right? I'm not really happy or comfortable with the situation here, nor have my efforts been able to change other people's views (e.g. make them think about consequences).

Large companies can also bully suppliers to force them to lower prices at their end
