Tariffs are anti business and anti consumer though <:pepe_smile:378719407977005068>
Would Mises approve?

It do be coersion
No tariffs then. Convince the people to stop supporting shitty practices or get fucked?
But at the same time they're foreigners and they don't have the same privileges as the citizens 🤔
They're not really tariffs they're a counter to a Chinese chess move that was thought to be completely theoretical back in the
1940s
Classically, tariffs are a tax used by the country in order to bring in income, or to create a protectionist policy.
Under free trade theory, it's assumed that no country would WANT to put tariffs of things, but there's a slight chance that a country could take advantage of this by dumping goods and undercutting the local prices of other nations
China made a move, and for a while no one called their bluff
US tariffs on China are not protectionist, because it's not protecting US businesses per se.
It's actually encouraging businesses to move to other SE Asian countries like Taiwan or Malaysia
`there's a slight chance that a country could take advantage of this by dumping goods and undercutting the local prices of other nations`
like, what motivated the US to originally tariff european manufactured goods, steel, etc.
Tactical negotiations
```In the aftermath of the American Revolution, the weak Congress of the Confederation had been unable to impose a tariff or reach reciprocal trade agreements with most European powers, creating a situation in which the country was unable to prevent a flood of European goods which were damaging domestic manufacturers even while Britain and other countries placed high duties on U.S. goods```
huehuehue
Oh, at that period
I thought you meant something Trump did
no
people have recognised the need of tariffs to protect local industries for long time
Yes, and realized that removing tariffs on certain goods can lead to mutual benefit
Oh boy, this is comedy gold...

Fuck off fed, you're glowing
I gave him a chance. Watched a few streams but he lost me on the part about white culture and interbreeding of races. That's a bit too close to white supremacy for my tastes
He does have some valid criticisms of mainstream conservatives though
Oh, I'm way beyond worrying about that shit.
I gave up caring
100 years ago, it was obvious that race mixing was a bad idea.
It can cause a lot of health issues when it comes to compatibility during transplants
Mixed children are less well adjusted when split between two heritages
Diversity in your genetic pool is a good thing
