Vietnam

Who in the US is going to make your socks you buy for $5?

Freedom is lost when you do what we did. Depending on much of our way of living on foreign products is not something that can be sustained for a long period of time. in fact, we would have fewer social agendas as we would be more honest in living with the true value of a dollar. When we collapse the Prog women will eventually become demure one way or the other.

I declare a Trade War

The American consumer will pay for it

Just like buying local, the higher cost is short term by boosting your local economy.

This is how you pay Americans a living the wage.

If tariffs were bad, nations like Canada wouldn't have them on the US

The free trade agreement called USMCA that Trump negotiated included free trade in most industries except for what the two nations agreed on protecting. We protected tons of agriculture.

One more time. Who in the US will work in factories to make socks so you can buy them for $5 from Walmart? How about jeans which is an environmental terror to dye. Why dont you just buy American 100% of the time if you are willing spend more?

How did you feel when Biden increased Trump's tariffs dramatically...

"The tariff rate will go up to 100% on electric vehicles, to 50% on solar cells and to 25% on electrical vehicle batteries, critical minerals, steel, aluminum, face masks and ship-to-shore cranes beginning September 27, according to the US Trade Representative’s Office.

Tariff hikes on other products, including semiconductor chips, are set to take effect over the next two years."

Biden Admin said at the time, according to CNN, that tariffs protect "American workers and businesses."

Yep. One of the reasons I didn't vote for Biden.

To do that it had to be done decades ago and there were people who suggested what you have. Very few listened then. If we go to American made, we will spend more. We may live with a little less. Our nation will endure though. For China will become top dog at this rate. For we see less for millennials now as a warning.

We won't be buying imports. We will make stuff here. Profits with be higher, wages will be higher. Your, old, dated economics will be dead and buried.

I would like that to be true, but even if it is.....everything is being moved toward AI and robots. Elon and others have openly admitted that eventually humans will be replaced, and pretty much useless. So eventually jobs are going to be lost, not created.

6 packs and 3 packs for cheap ass socks go on sales for about $5 near back to school. No apparatus in the US to meet those prices.

Smartwool is US based. Her is the price of one pair or US made socks at walmart:

There is a lot more than that that needs to be done. Decades ago, it was easier, and it was not done. It is not becoming specialists in different endeavors either.

I think Tariffs are a good Idea. Everything I buy now is made in China.!1$ We need a 50% Tariff on goods made in China!?!!$

Spoken like a truly ignorant sap.

Biden's actions prove tariffs are a far left policy. Just as I've been saying for several years.

Just as I have been saying far left limousine Democrat Donald Trump was going to lead the tard herd into the far left cave.

Progressive promote employment of hundreds of thousands of people who stayed at home from Covid and got paid as normal. And then I see ads for American made socks that are more expensive, then overseas and you still do not get it.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

We have been paying tariffs in the form of higher prices on imported goods all along. Tariffs we charge are paid by the foreign interests buying those products.

Well sure, you can find expensive socks if you look for them. I typed in socks made in USA and see unisex for $2.75/pr. Great rated ladies' socks for $7.

For your tastes, you should consider some cheaper, more stylish ones...

Should be 100% on them mail-order brides.

Actually, I think Leftists would prefer to raise taxes on US corporations, instead of foreign ones, thus shipping jobs overseas.

No one of importance is declaring a trade war.

Ringwinger is. He orders his condoms by the gross from N. Korea.

Trump's tariff could wipe him out.
