Give me one minute

okay I am willing to listen to this

Exactly. I think people are aware that China is an economic powerhouse, but we are not incentivized to pull back. We rely on China too much

<:communistthink:621676413799497754>

you can blame Reagan, Bush sr and jr, Clinton, and Obama for that.

A lot of people are complacent as well. Lots of people don't care enough to check if what they're buying is made in China for example.

That i also agree too. China doesnt broadcast the things they are doing. It's always better to overestimate your opponent than underestimate

<:RotatedSemiFullyAutomatic:761629946564575242> if we go to war I'm ready tho

NGL I am not downloading shit

I'm only a highschooler who can't drive yet so I'm not the most educated, but there are some good cards

No downloads...

oh sorry

my message was too long

my bad, won't happen again

okay so let me explain that military might is not just measured in man power, which the USA still beats China with the worlds largest Unofficial military and the second largest official military.

China also has a large market for rare earth metals too

Definitely. And the cheap pricing of chinese products is working against us. I am in full support of a trade war and forcing american companies to pull back, even if it meant we have to agree to buy goods at a higher price. But for some people? Not so much

I will debate this one with you in discord if you want 🙂 I am in general 1 🙂

oh rich people would just price it more but they are aware that they would get less customers. poor people already don't make much money

plus I got 30 minutes to kill before my wife and I head off

idk when trump did a steel tarrif on china and it worked

Is this okay to post?

how much isn't much money?

China is more ready than us, from my perspective. They have mandatory services, and more people to spare.

I know that, and it isn't just measured in the number of platforms we have either

as in steel has gone down after the tarrifs

I think it should be good 👍

It's only measured by results

And the results don't prove we are superior

It's hard to determine money since the value of a dollar varies so much, I would say under 30k but it depends on what you buy, america is really good with producing food I presume

lmao I thought it was that feminist book for a sec

?

@Knotty I can pretty much never talk in vc b/c I'm supposed to be doing hw rn

okay so if I were to live on just teh basics I could get away with spending under $7,500 a year on food, fuel, and housing.

oh really? I don't live in america and have a limited understanding of

economics

<:DerpyMeow:675825290425008171>

so if we for some reason cut chinas supply out of the blue, how much would things cost?

more

a lot more
