Trump says he's asked China to 'immediately' remove all tariffs on US agricultural products

Russia Today says war is coming between america and china and the US fears Russia will get involved!

 

[Zorro!]

Donald Trump has blinked.

Trump is not winning the trade war and he has been informed that a 25% tariff on Chinese goods will bring more American companies to their knees than Chinese companies...

Informed by who? An additional 15% on $200B is $30B. The US economy does $21,062.691B a year in business, that's 1 tenth of one percent. Do you people even think before you start making these wild claims?

...Despite the tariffs, the trade deficit with China has been growing...

Do you double check anything?

Our first quarter trade deficit with China was $-79,979.5M
Our first quarter trade deficit with China in 2018 was $-91,088.9M

...Donald Trump is not just morally and financially bankrupting the USA, he is bankrupting the world...

In Trump's first two years he put the US in the strongest debt to GDP position in seven years.

How do you say ‘go fuck yourself’ in Chinese?

An interesting question. I guess there is not any way to translate the words "go fuck yourselve" in any other language of the world. Only 'you' are able to go and to fuck yourselve the same time.

 

[Slyhunter]

Free trade. If they tariff us we tariff them.

 

[Denizen]

Funny how all these lefties are cheering for China to continue taking our manufacturing jobs, while destroying the environment while they are at it.

I thought it was the Mexicans who were taking our jobs?

Get your racism straight.

Chinese cleverly disguised as Mexicans?

China did not take our manufacturing jobs dipshit, automation and efficiency did.

In the 80s as our manufacturing jobs numbers were dropping, output was still increasing. Six Sigma was responsible for more lost manufacturing jobs than China was.

That is the problem with manufacturing jobs, they are the easiest job to replace with a machine.

Wrong. Most of the manufacturing jobs went to third world shit holes because of the cheap slave labor and non-existent environmental laws.

If it was all just “automation” it could had remained in the US.

whether the menial jobs went to china for 1/10th the cost (or however the labor is figured there) or they were lost to automation, they were lost, correct?

The Trump administration of 2016-2020 will appear in cases studies in the teaching of economics to demonstrate that tariffs and trade wars harm the whole global economy.

Trump says he's asked China to 'immediately' remove all tariffs on US agricultural products

Trump says he's asked China to 'immediately' remove all tariffs on US agricultural products
President Donald Trump on Friday said that he has asked China to "immediately remove all tariffs" on U.S. agricultural products, in return for his decision to postpone a March 1 deadline to raise U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports.

Trump made the request "based on the fact that we are moving along nicely with trade discussions," he said.
On Sunday, Trump announced that he would delay the additional tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect at the beginning of March. ...

What is your point? Tariffs work great for China, but won’t work for the US?

Tariffs are a tax on US consumers. Trump has raised taxes.

Tariffs are a tax on companies that manufacture in third world shit holes, and they give an incentive for US companies to remain in the US. Consumers don’t have to pay that tax if they don’t want to.

Pretty much sums up the idiocy of the average Trump supporter.

A) It’s a tax paid by importers; it’s not a tax on companies.

B) What you’re trying to imply is that the companies having to raise their prices to include the tariffs will be a large enough incentive to keep plants here. In most cases that would never happen when you consider all of those costs are upfront (you pay the worker, the utilities and the overhead if you don’t sell a unit). When you build over-seas, you lower all of those costs and you’re selling to the importer…paying the cost on the back end.

What is also ignored by Trump idiots is that the US Market is saturated in most industries. If you’re not shipping products here, you needn’t worry about paying the tariffs so the plant in Sri Lanka may be largely immune from any tariffs.

what if you run an import company?

You pay more to import the same exact good. Pay more, get less.
