For years Democrats have begged for higher taxes…if that’s what tariffs are then why all the resistance?

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

There’s nothing funny about it…Libs like to talk about what others should be forced to do while they do the opposite.
You don’t volunteer to overpay on your taxes and you don’t move seven illegal parasites in with you.

What you spew is funny.

 

[San Souci]

Democrats have told us that higher taxes levied on the people means more revenue in the general fund/treasury which means more free shit for the people.
If what they say is true then why aren’t they embracing and encouraging the use of tariffs?

Because they can't collect Graft on Tariffs.

 

[Moonglow]

/——/ The greedy corporations couldn’t compete with cheap slave labor. It was move overseas or go out of business.

That is called capitalism.

But you can get a luxurious Trump golf course.

 

[Captain Caveman]

A pathetically weak defense for trump crashing the economy.

Apply it to any president, and to both Democrats and Republicans that twinned about tariffs, how much did it personally effect you and them? Quantify it. But you can't answer, you don't know, no one can, they just all whine for petty arguement sake. Are you having to spend $5 extra dollars a week, or $10, what items caused that? How much have you saved with lower gas (petrol/diesel) etc..

But by all means just carry on with your baseless hot air whining.

Disagree. As a business step up and pay your labor.

/——/ It’s called government overreach. That’s what drive them overseas.

/—-/ Proving you know nothing about business. Labor is their highest overhead. $180 a day vs $3 a day— whose prices will be lower?

So then don't you propose to pay our labor $3 per day? What should be done then? Perhaps more unionization will help.

/—-/ That’s a strawman argument, and you know it. Do you have a rational argument?

If something is made overseas it should be made here for at least 3 to 5 times the pay.

 

[Concerned American]

If something is made overseas it should be made here for at least 3 to 5 times the pay.

Thank you! But I don't think labor in the US would be happy with $15/day.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

If we have to pay American prices for shoes, we will be very unhappy.

The workers will have to be paid decently, and the management and owners will be very unhappy.

True but when one advocates for American labor there's pushback. Like $30 per hour is too much.

It is too much. Half of that is more appropriate in the US for factory work.

Not with prices like they are. $30 an hour is about $60,000. A couple after several years of work can afford a down payment.

Amazing what raising burger flipper wages to $20/hr. with benefits and declaring war on fossil fuels does, eh?

That's an opinion, yes.

Good luck finding good workers for that wage. I would hope the factory would struggle to find them at that wage.
