who hike prices to the sellers

We should consider some rather crazy policy for short term strictly

I'm actually playing from Trump's playbook here

the difference here though is that instead of taxing outsiders, you're taxing your own

You assume that is a good thing.

Long term protectionism is just protection from competition

So let's tax production by machines to level the playing field for human beings

I don't disagree beemamn

ew, nty. I want my beans as cheap as they can be.

But this is the way Americans seem to like it

then maybe I can go to that concert...or that movie....or that ....other human made thing, cuz i got more money.

Tax based on what we find socially acceptable to encourage production by socially acceptable means

Also, Trump's playbook is to tariff things to force a renegotiation with bad trade deals that leave the US disadvantaged. The tariffs are not the goal.

That's not what he says

He says he wants to help American steel workers

He wants to direct production back here

same thing isn't it?

good trade deals for US means american workers benefit

He asserts that it's not here because of bad deals

That's one small piece of his tariffs, and arguably raised prices for everyone in the us.

He takes pride in every factory he can remotely claim stays open or reopens

Here being NA

Here being the US. We saw his attitude over Canada.

Which goes back to my first problem which is tax the machines, raises the price, which means you need more taxes.

We have protectionist policies

Anyway, Trump is about redistribution

Americans don't consider Canada or Mexico part of NA 😛

Which is why we're getting tariffed

Make imports more expensive to redistribute wealth to domestic producers

huh

I don’t really understand where continent names come from

thats not to redistribute wealth back

thats to make it more profitable for companies to recall back to the US

Bernier also wants to get rid of the business cartels in our country

Gavin left the PBs (not really) and MSN is falsely claiming the FBI is calling the PB are extremists w/ "white nationalist" ties

For the average WalMart shopper, they lose overall to tarriffs

Likely have to rely on socialism not unlike the new deal in having people work on infrastructure for the companies paid by company tax

In the short term, yes

@R9b1t the people who discover them,

America is named after Amerigo Vespucci

@DrYuriMom and it still goes back to my point, that it is raising prices here. And if they stay forever, it might have 0 effect on anything because of the redistribution.

Europe?
