Want a "booming economy"?

Ok then. If tariffs helped Japan but hurt Hungary we should figure out why. Is Hungary politically stable? Is Japan special for any reason? Which is America's position more similar to?

(Hungary is not a topic I am very well versed in. Talk away)

Current Russian cars are the same quality as Hungarian cars. Makes for interesting reading. There is nothing to figure out. Putting someone on welfare or a tariff is a big negative as it frees them from competition and impoverishes those who must pay the higher prices and endure the lower quality. We have free trade now mostly because it is the one thing economists can agree on.

Do you feel like a silly liberal for picking the least winable debate in all of economics?? See why we must conclude that a liberal must be slow? Sorry

Well cool then.

Why did the tariffs work in Japan and not Hungary?

who said they worked in Japan????????????

Ok. Present a theory. There are points to be made.

You said Japanese Tariff protected car companies make superior products to the un protected American companies.

How did the tariffs in Japan not help?

Come on man. Give a reason or a theory. Anything....please.

same way they did not help in Hungary and Russia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on man. Give a reason or a theory. Anything....please.

too stupid!! Free trade is Econ 101 class one day one and one of the few things on which economists agree.

Edward, it seems Toyota and Honda performed well under the tariff system.....

Japan was a country with an organized capitalistic central government where industry could thrive and had somewhat of an industrial history.

So, their companies, freed from price war competition, were able to have SOME market to make some profit in. The tariff worked for them.

Modern companies, Million Dollar Baby and I suspect Tempurpedic and Stihl all employ a form of price fixing to allow them to focus on quality and customer service. It is not the business plan of where I work but it seems to be working for them.

all agree

why use them as an example when you could use Russia Hungary East Germany etc etc etc.???????? Are you unaware that you are fooling yourself

Modern companies, Million Dollar Baby and I suspect Tempurpedic and Stihl all employ a form of price fixing to allow them to focus on quality and customer service. It is not the business plan of where I work but it seems to be working for them.

what???????? who is talkling about price fixing????????????

OK then......

What makes you liberal enough not to like tariffs? Afterall it is the income tax that is new and tariffs which funded the U.S. in the time of our founding fathers. Its ok to be a liberal btw. They were in power when America became #1.

Did tariffs keep our early industries from growing?

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

OK then......

too stupid. Liberals like central planning and tariffs while conservative libertarians don't. They like freedom and capitalism. Now you know your ABC's

Afterall it is the income tax that is new and tariffs which funded the U.S. in the time of our founding fathers.

What??????who is talking about the income tax??????????????????????

Its ok to be a liberal btw.

too stupid. One would have to be a near perfect idiot to describe a person who favors freedom and capitalism as a liberal.

They were in power when America became #1.

dear, by international standards America has always been conservative/libertarian in that it has had comparatively more freedom and capitalism than almost any place else.


See why we are positive a liberal will be slow??

Did tariffs keep our early industries from growing?

a tariff harms industry in general by reducing competition, raising prices, and slowing growth.

So Hamilton and Washington were liberals?

Did American industry grow under their 130 year system?

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

So Hamilton and Washington were liberals?

exactly, this is why Jefferson resigned and formed the Republican Party in 1792. Welcome to your first lesson in American History.

Did American industry grow under their 130 year system?

too stupid!!! Jefferson defeated the Federalist party in the Second American Revolution of 1800 and it was never heard from again until the communist inspired New Deal era.

Again, welcome to your very first lesson in American History. You're as good at history as you are at economics. Do you want to be a dull liberal all your llife????

Got it. You say Washington and Hamilton were Liberals.

Jefferson got rid of the tariff system?

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Got it. You say Washington and Hamilton were Liberals.

yes and so mortal enemies of Jefferson. Why did you think Jefferson resigned formed the Republican Party in 1792?? Welcome to your first lesson in American History.

Jefferson got rid of the tariff system?

too stupid!! Look it up if you don't know!!

I think he is on medication. sometimes he forgets to take them. But, he is educational. It has been proven that the delusional believe they are profoundly smart. Which explains ed, I guess. Poor guy.

if you don't know look it up??? even you should be able to find info on it.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

of course if conservatism/libertarianism was delusional you would not be so afraid to point out where. What does your fear tell you about your IQ and character?

Would your mother be proud of the way you use personal attack whenever you lack the IQ for substsnce?

Got it. They all kept the high tariffs and that libturd Reagan placed that "voluntary" import cap on the japanese cars?

Thats right Edward?

 

[Rshermr]

Really. Asking ed questions. He seems to be totally confused. Which, for ed, is normal. As a paid con tool, you would think he would have better dogma to post.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

are you saying you support tariffs when most economists on left and right don't???? Why?? A tariff frees an industry from competition.

Imagine someone who jogs for fun and someone who races in life and death competition? Who would be a faster runner? Now you understand competiton and how it makes us better. Not so hard was it?
