The economy is based on the service industry. Uber, uber eats, Amazon prime, restaurants, dog walkers, home care nursing, etc.

Factory workers arent the backbone of the economy anymore and it's not going to go back to that. Nobody wants to be on their feet for 10 hours doing repetitive tasks and risking injury. It is more expensive to find and hire and provide benefits for an American worker who will put these goods together. It's cheaper to have foreign labour do that and some of those savings are passed on to us. Most of the shyt you see in dollar stores and Walmart are made in China.

This could lose him the election because a lot of his most passionate supporters either work or aspire to work in manufacturing.
Not only that, but technology has eliminated a lot of manufacturing jobs that a few decades ago you could get by simply walking in.

Contrary to what people say, manufacturing has actually gone up in America but most of those jobs have been taken over by automation.

Conservatives love to blame unions(yes they're not perfect) but at the end of the day its greed greed greed!

This is all about containing the rise of China. This is a battle the US cannot win. It is a very historic time to be alive right now. We are witnessing the dawn of a new unipolar world right now where the American Empire will no longer reign supreme. It may me time to learn Mandarin brehs
I would say the world is becoming. Multipolar if anything.

Americans are just arrogant know it alls that are still suffering from the a mental disease known as manifest destiny.

It doesn’t even lower prices in theory... what are you two talking about?:mindblown:
:gucci:

Thats The whole intention of tariffs. Technically the local product become cheaper when compared to the more expensive foreign products.

And really you can argue that Tariffs, in theory, can result in local products to become cheaper in the long run when local output increases resulting in supply exceeding demand.

But we all know that never happens in real life.

Every president probably going back to I'd say Ford has thought about a tariff war or something like it. And there has always been a voice of reason telling them to lay back. That the cons outnumber the pros 100 to 1. He's the first to not listen.:francis:
