Why shouldnt we? And what countries should?
Trump taxes on goods to start today.
- Thread starter Tommy Tainant
- Start date
We could if companies weren't afraid of paying American workers double or more wages for the same work.
Sorry I dont think its because American workers are selfish

Maybe Iceland or Switzerland - but certainly not the USA, or any of those UN Veto buggers
Not to worry... we'll get the trade thing sorted with those two, then it'll be your turn...
Trump’s tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China: will they spark a trade war?
As the US president imposes import taxes on three key trading partners, we examine potential repercussionswww.theguardian.com
When Trump put tariffs on Chinese imports last time he was in the White House, Beijing put tariffs on US imports, including soya beans and corn. The move ultimately hurt US farmers, who relied on business with China. Without the approval of Congress, Trump ended up bailing out farmers, whose export revenues dropped by at least $10bn (£8bn) after the tariffs were imposed.
The Council on Foreign Relations, a US thinktank, has since calculated that as much as 92% of the proceeds collected from the tariffs on Chinese imports were spent on payouts to farmers.
Its so exciting to be at the start of a golden age. Have you noticed prices going up yet or is it too early to notice ?
Trump is now saying that the notional money that he makes from tariffs will enable him to stop income tax. Delusional.
But if this is his only economic idea then the invasion of Greenland comes nearer as he will need a diversion.
My advice to the US is to stock up on toilet paper and tinned goods. It may help you get thru the coming years.
Meanwhile eggs are expensive.
Just out of curiosity... what country do YOU live in?
The Swiss? The country that created a banking system for the nazis to hide all the loot they stole from Jews?
Sorry, I don’t want your morals
Iceland? I mean it would be nice to be an isolated country that nobody wanted to move to…that doesn’t really help any other countries and only supports itself…maybe
I do t either it's never workers that drive away a business
Most of the blame goes to the companies. They're not about america

Yes I agree about the moral word is a hotly contested word to be used by a nation that has slipped so far beneath the waves at this point. While reflecting on the better time's when America was called by God to achieve certain task that were set before it, we can easily see where the slippage started, and where it should end.
Their are plenty of good traditionalist who are left, and yet have been left behind be it young and older, so if they are reactivated by a government that has their back once again, then the pathway can change for the better if unity truly is restored.
Yes stay tuned I guess.

Yes, it's government interference or bad regulations or bad policies.

it's a consumption tax. The thing is, you only pay that tax if you consume those goods. If you can find alternate products, then you don't pay them.
Most of the blame goes to govt, business respond to govt

Companies that were given the opportunity to shaft us all by government who in many cases allegedly have become multi-millionaires while serving in the public service sector on limited wages and benefits.
It's easy to see what has been going on, and why they are fighting Trump like skarks in the water.
Don't let business off the hook. They'd happily pollute everything because it saves them a buck. Cannot be trusted.
Tuesday. Is it not Tuesday?Trump’s tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China: will they spark a trade war?

Don't think it was always about wages being paid, because Americans for decades worked job's for wages that weren't up to par with the balance of profit making to wages paid by these companies over the year's.
Many worked job's at lesser wages due to ease of job, convenience to home, stress levels lower, comradery with fellow employee's, and a management team that knew how to make it all work out.
The greed of the elite, and their government bribed employee's or official's rather, had since set the stages for what we are all going through at this time right now.

Well these so called activist environmentalist shouldn't let that happen if they are truly enviromental engineer's that have solution's instead of this bam bam hammer that they use while screaming bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam like the little baby on the Flintstones.
The overseeing of the environmental sector of government has to be a position that demands a high educational background with experience in such thing's as a plus.
Out of control bull chit has got to stop if we are to truly be serious about MAGA for this country.
