Producer of aluminum explains the need for tariffs

[Marener]

Protectionism requires a lot of work from the industries being protected

Lobbying?

Lobbying?

No, smelting of aluminum ore

Then Rolling it, pounding it

Casting it

 

[Concerned American]

Yep make it 5x....no american would take issue with that.

Until they end up on welfare because they can't compete.

 

[Marener]

Dont let your spastic hate for trump spill over onto American companies and American workers producing a product that the nation needs

In capitalism, you earn money by producing the best product with the best price.

Everything else is welfare.

Good for them.

Doesn't change the fact that it’s welfare.

You've been on welfare your entire useless life.

You've been on welfare your entire useless life.

Is that the best you can do? Sad.

Its not welfare

Do you prefer to pay Americans to sit around doing nothing ?

Thats real welfare

Until they end up on welfare because they can't compete.

4 grand per month is not even 50 grand per year. You have an issue with some worker earning that? 48 grand? Thats not even good pay.

Do you prefer Americans get welfare?

It is welfare. They need the government to support their business. They didn’t earn it.

You did not answer my question

 

[Marener]

It’s a phony question.

If it’s not welfare, then why do they need the government to support them?

 

[Mac-7]

It’s a phony question.

Its not phony

But it is a question you cant answer because it exposes your misuse of the English language

They didn’t produce the best product at the best price. The money they get because of government intervention is welfare. They didn’t earn it. The government forced it.
