Republican destroyed the New Deal when Reagan was elected and it’s been downhill for working class Americans ever since.
Pres. Reagan revived the economy by finally shedding the last vestiges of the communist New Deal and reinstating free trade.capitalism. ...
Yes he did, and it resulted in a huge high unemployment, an increase in poverty, a doubling of food stamp usage, a huge stock market crash, a a doubling, and the doubling, tripling of the deficit.
It also resulted in the gradual transfer of wealth from working and middle class Americans, to the wealthiest 10%. Coupled with Reagan’s attacks on unions, which resulted in the stagnation of wages, the erosion of the middle class was begun.
Ultimately, Reagan had to raise taxes a lot. He also substantially increased
Yeah............we are all going to die because our Gov't is standing up and negotiating deals for Fair Trade instead of allowing them to **** us over.........................
You do this .................we will do that.............it's called negotiating............if they walk out with their ******* panties in a wad............we'll make it ourself............or find another supplier..................
Wah...............If Canada stops sending a Product we are all gonna die................Got news for you........This is a big dang world..........................And we can buy from someone else.....................
Guess you don't see that now do you...............
Most of the fight is over steel and aluminum...............and it isn't that big of a deal.
Other countries haven’t been “******* you over with trade”. That’s the dumbest part of Trump’s great trade lies. It’s US corporations who have fucked you over in search of lower costs and higher profits.
Walmart was actively encouraging suppliers to offshore manufacturing to lower wholesale costs. One supplier said he felt he had no choice and that he’d lose the contract if he couldn’t give them the lower prices they wanted. Here’s an article from 2003.
The Wal-Mart You Don’t Know
Americans are now the whiniest people on earth and instead of looking in the mirror where the root causes of your problems exist, Trump looks for “others” to blame. It’s not the fault of Americans they don’t buy goods that are “made in America” because they want the cheapest price possible and quality be damned. It’s China’s fault for “taking advantage”.
Canada is the largest importer of US goods and services in the world. You’re driving away your largest customer. We just signed a $40 billion dollar trade deal with the EU. We’re part of TPP. We’re ready with other options.
China, the world’s fastest growing economy is poised to swoop in when Dumb Donald pulls this crap.
Oh and Mexico has an election coming up. The guy who’s leading the polls is the radical who is promising to take a hard line against Trump’s trade policies.
Dumb. Really ******* dumb.
Ahhhh STFU...............I posted a bunch of information on how China and other nations are ******* us......
But your LOVE AFFAIR WITH TRUMP will not let you see it...........
Do you have a Trump picture on your wall at home.............to blow kisses at......................
We are talking about Canada.
I can tell you right now. Your droppings all over stinks.
Based from your post here. You DON’T know what you are talking about trades and economics.
Negotiating for better deals for our country over others isn't BS............as you say...
Other countries ban our goods and use trade barriers against us............Looking for a better deal to keep jobs here is in our best interest.........even if I have to pay a little more.
You would rather the jobs go to other countries to buy more of their stuff and to put other to work in other countries.
Free Trade is BS...........we didn't do this crap for over 200 years and we did just fine. Until people like you said it was broken................
Negotiated deals country to country worked...........and now we become dependent on others for all our goods.............Not in our best interests.
You say there were no free trade deals for over 200 years and the US was fine. That’s because there was no global trade and banking system until after WWII.
It was the globalization which followed WWII that made America the richest country in the world. With Europe’s manufacturing capability destroyed in the war, and Japan reeling in the aftermath of two atomic bombings, the USA was the only major world manufacturing power left. The profits made rebuilding Europe and Japan, combined with the New Deal, and a strong education system allowed the US to lead the world and launched the Great American Middle Class.
Republicans have been destroying both since Reagan was elected and killed the New Deal.
