The thing is. Saying "it stands regardless is a mosnomer if it hasnt even been ratified in the us yet

Cause this isnt even official yet here

i understand

but we have zero guarantee that Trump will remove the tariff

since it wasnt even mentioned

You can complain if it is still there after congress ratifies

I will ceed it then.

i can complain about how no action was taken to remove it

Tbh its probably trump holding it to ensure t dog doesnt back out

Similar to any against mexico

Especially with mexico having a new pres

you can amend article 232 in USMCA so it automatically eliminates the tariff once all sides ratifies the agreement

I'm reading various articles on the USMCA deal, and I don't see anyone claimung that the deal has "fucked over" Canada or Mexico. In fact they mostly state how it improves worker conditions and inter north american trade

I dont read articles cause spin

Read the deal itself

I am as well

I wanted to read some opinions on it

raising the percent of $16 earners in auto manufacturing will undoubtedly fuck over mexico

significantly too

Yea i really dont see any big fuck yous. And the ones mentioned are conjecture, as it isnt even ratified in the us yet.

And it wont improve worker conditions and stop immigration?

it will shrink their workforce

Raising income for workers and giving them larger union protection is what most workers.would want

those who keeps their jobs will be improved sure

The workforce wont shrink... perhaps you mean employed workers

i ofc am not referring to the entirety of mexican workforce

it will shift auto manfucaturing away from mexico

It depends, It's more benefitial for Mexico to increase the auto industry since a car 75% produced in Mexico will be freed of tariffs

its not up to mexico to increase the auto industry

its up to the auto industry to increase in mexico

with less incentive in the forms of lower wages

they will shift towards Canada or US

The Mexican state can subsidise and incentivise industrial growth in many ways

subsidies are an issue to this and previous agreement

and it will cost mexico regardless

there is a massive industrial opportunity in mexico

they could build the wall

Take refugees or pay us money... not that the EU is blackmailing or anything...

"Governments would still be obliged to take asylum-seekers from other EU states, but exceptions could be made if countries made “alternative measures of solidarity”.

That EU language is code for paying into the EU budget or paying towards development projects in Africa, diplomats said, and seeks to end divisions between EU states such as Germany, which are willing to take in refugees, and eastern countries such as Hungary, who reject granting asylum. "
