But in practice it wasn’t terrible either

2018-09-09 16:46:28 UTC  

It's also fair to compare 2010 to 2018

2018-09-09 16:46:30 UTC  

i mean sure, in theory it isnt a terrible idea

2018-09-09 16:46:43 UTC  

but it was very clearly going to end up this way

2018-09-09 16:46:58 UTC  

I agree we'll have a complete set of data when Trumps terms are up.

2018-09-09 16:47:27 UTC  

Trump should get pretty much none of the credit for the economy doing so well

2018-09-09 16:48:09 UTC  

So you acknowledge the economy is doing very well.

2018-09-09 16:48:14 UTC  

Eh, his technique is to force money into America any way possible

2018-09-09 16:48:14 UTC  

of course it is

2018-09-09 16:48:24 UTC  

to louis

2018-09-09 16:48:37 UTC  

you mean force money to stock holders

2018-09-09 16:49:22 UTC  

No, Into America

2018-09-09 16:49:26 UTC  

Stock holders should get money

2018-09-09 16:49:30 UTC  

And if it’s American stock holders

2018-09-09 16:49:35 UTC  

Still America

2018-09-09 16:49:40 UTC  

So he doesn’t really care

2018-09-09 16:49:43 UTC  

yeah, into the super rich

2018-09-09 16:49:47 UTC  

He just wants it in America

2018-09-09 16:49:57 UTC  

he isnt helping the workers

2018-09-09 16:50:10 UTC  

he clearly failed in that in aim with the tax cut

2018-09-09 16:50:32 UTC  

Eh,

2018-09-09 16:50:44 UTC  

I've seen 2 factories open up in my town in the past year. There are job posting everywhere. Things haven't been this good for workers in a long time

2018-09-09 16:50:53 UTC  

in some industries, sure

2018-09-09 16:51:36 UTC  

take the first round of tariffs on steel and alimium, sure it helps the works who make the metals, but what about the massive industry that uses the metals

2018-09-09 16:52:02 UTC  

Who else is buying the metals?

2018-09-09 16:52:15 UTC  

who is buying the metals?

2018-09-09 16:52:22 UTC  

Besides America

2018-09-09 16:52:29 UTC  

Okay, real talk

2018-09-09 16:52:33 UTC  

i dont get the question

2018-09-09 16:52:36 UTC  

What’s “Alimium”?

2018-09-09 16:52:46 UTC  

aluminum spelled horribly wrong

2018-09-09 16:52:53 UTC  

It's about the marketplace.

2018-09-09 16:53:01 UTC  

😂

2018-09-09 16:53:12 UTC  

all countries use steel and aluminum, they are very common metals

2018-09-09 16:53:13 UTC  

thats still wrong, peper

2018-09-09 16:53:17 UTC  

If America is the main consumer of these metals then America can afford to raise tariffs.

2018-09-09 16:53:17 UTC  

aluminium*

2018-09-09 16:53:29 UTC  

but that rises prices on those metals

2018-09-09 16:53:41 UTC  

For the people selling

2018-09-09 16:53:42 UTC  

which increase the cost for manufactories like Ford or Boeing

2018-09-09 16:54:45 UTC  

if you want to protect steel and aluminum jobs in the US there are other things you can do besides slapping tarrifs everywhere
