"without WalMart there is no middle class or lower class prosperity in America"? Can someone explain to me how the prosperity of a global corporation who receives enormous amounts of corporate welfare in the form of tax and employee subsidies is tied to the prosperity of the middle and lower classes? That statement seems counter-intuitive to me. Why? WalMart avoids hiring full time hourly employees so they don't have to provide benefits to them. They also pay their hourly employees so little that they cannot rise above the poverty line, which qualifies them for food stamps. WalMart also requires local and state tax incentives just to open up shop, which in turn destroys the local economy by pushing out small business competitors. The only people who benefit from WalMart is WalMart executives and shareholders. I guess I should not be surprised that the author of trickle down economics would say such a thing.

The trade war impacted where I lived back in Texas where a South Korean electronics manufacturer was going to open in my hometown. However, due to the rise in costs of aluminum and cobalt as part of Trump's tariffs and trade policies, they chose to leave the lot and moved NA operations to somewhere in Canada. In their place was an Amazon warehouse which offered slightly more jobs but with vastly reduced wages... and then the pandemic hit and now it's just a lot covered in concrete as Amazon has pretty much canned to project. Meanwhile, the small businesses located in downtown had been slowly foreclosing but there were at least others able to take their place, when the pandemic hit about 1/2 of them have begun layoffs and foreclosing thanks to Trump's PPP being taken in by big businesses. From what my friends have told me, it's worse than it was in 2008 down there.

However this only works if you have a carefully curated plan of what you do and don't put tariffs on and you need other kinds of taxes to keep industry where you want it, it's a complicated thing. You want to create a focused industry in your own country and create a trading alliance with others that can compensate for your weaknesses. You also want to be clear and consistent with it so that companies know what to expect. Trump is just throwing around tariffs to prove he is a strongman.

Erik Köster actually, evidence suggests it was europeans & americans traveling to and from europe that caused the initial spread. trump was advised of this. he ignored it and called covid itself hoax - until he was able to ban travel from china without comprehending the situation had already escalated to pandemic status, i.e. had spread beyond china and blocking trade/travel would do little to prevent spread. like you can see from this video, trump supporters do everything he says and believes in him completely; including his denial of heath precaution efficiency. he has silenced his own administrations doctors and continues to lie about the state of our nation, denying deaths and refusing to support those harmed directly by the pandemic & it’s economic effects. he is responsible for tens of thousands of avoidable deaths. he deliberately extorts individual states from acting independently and when they CAN get things done around his gerrymandering, they get punished. here’s an example of a lie and punitive action straight from trump: teachers and community leaders DO NOT WANT TO OPEN SCHOOLS. they are scared, for themselves and the students/their families. as a response, trump says he will cut all funding to schools if they don’t open. some schools STILL push back, he lies and gaslights by saying children are “almost immune” which isn’t true - they can still spread to teachers and families anyway. schools across georgia shut down today on their first day of school due to significant evidence of explosive spread. not to mention many governors act under trump for money and power, not representative of their people whatsoever. i get what you’re saying - but if you take a closer look, trump really is the key person running the show and a common thread upon all of our grievances. not to mention, when the people protest - they release secret police by trumps direction.

Stop spreading this AUTOMATION myth. People been saying through out history. Also you people don't understand how expensive automation is that fact that the more complicated something is the more problems there'd be especially being maintained. Airplanes have had autopilot for decades now being able to land by itself yet airplanes still have pilots because no matter how much you program these systems something will always go wrong. Self Driving cars will never be fully automated because there's just too many variables to account for that you'd need a super computer while a human is able to act quickly. Plus these automated robots would need to specially made to manufacture certain products so they'd have limitations to what each on could do. When I was working at Mcdonalds we had those Kiosk and mangement was telling use to not stand or use the cashier except for getting change and customers were getting so pissed off because it took longer to make a simple order on a kiosk than to tell the cashier exactly what they wanted plus they'd always be down and if someone was paying with cash then they'd have to be in line anyways to pay for their meal so it was stupid to them. We kept telling management but they didn't care because the owner spent alot of money on those things and wanted them to be put in use. It wasn't until we started losing customers even our regualors to the other mcdonalds a mile away that mangement started to ease up. Plus even walmart and other stores are getting rid of their self checkout BS because customers feel like they're doing the cashiers job

These tariffs directly hurt the people producing goods the actual average household uses. One example I have is the stainless steel plant that produced liquid tanks, dairy, and beer producing equipment has laid off many many people due to the vast increase in stainless prices and had to raise the prices of their equipment they sell, this, in turn, raised the prices of milk, beer, and even water in my state as they had a hand in the production of all of that.

An opinionated arsehat shouldn't be handed a position of responsibility forming international policy and trade deals just because he can waffle on about his opinion. An expert is someone who has studied all the data (or very nearly all), who has an understanding of where the areas of uncertainty lie, why, and to what degree, and can then relay all that knowledge with the confidence they know what they're talking about. Someone who expresses that they don't know if they believe themselves is clearly *not* an expert. They're an arsehat with an opinion. tripple-d - Saying Frump says things only for effect, ie 'PR', not because it's any way true or honest, does not by any stretch make his inhabitance of the POTUS position any more palatable. Nor does it give the parties he's negotiating international deals with any confidence that he's an honest dealer. Having such a dishonest person in the POTUS office demeans the USA as a whole.

In this country any longer? If you don't believe me. Go look at your cars headlight, taillights and other parts and read where it was made. Maytag, Westinghouse, GE, Kenmore and the rest. Have their products made in China and shipped her to be sold as American products. The only jobs these places offer are in warehouses. Where their product is shipped, then sent to department store distribution centers. All the manufacturing went overseas because the labor cost and tariffs were so low. That even with the shipping of the products back to the US. It was cheaper to the companies that having them made here in the US. Cheaper in the way of profit. Mainly to keep their investors happy with the gains they make, on their investments. With such low, or no tariffs. Companies like these were home free. Any economist that is not being back (paid) by big business knows this. Big business wants to keep their cost down and not move the manufacturing back to the US. Oh, and anybody with half a brain can research this on their own.

Now its no longer cheaper so the companies in America will buy american made steel instead (because its cheaper) That steel will ofc make your prices go up in your country, but it will increase the circulation of cash flow in the United states, which will mean that the home market will benefit from it instead of chinas. Rule 101 in world trade is that countries should strife at having a higher export then import. If the import is higher then the export the country will go into a minus in balance. That in itself is not good for your country. There is multiple economic theories, which support this. Since the United States has a massive deficit on the trade balance between china and themself, these tarifs makes sense to support.

Well there's only so many mouths to feed in this world. Once you have too many farmers producing too much product, they're just wasting money growing and not all the farmers will be able to sell their product. Just look at what's happening to marijuana these days. There used to be plenty of money in it when there was hardly any growers, now everyone is growing marijuana and it's worth nothing so you can't even make a living off of it anymore. If farmers are waiting on me to buy their product they'll be broke cause I grow my own vegetables, meat and use non-ethanol fuel. Hell, farmers lose money on corn for ethanol and the government pays them to grow it to keep them in a job. Government just needs to quit blending ethanol in fuel and use straight petroleum. Forcing small corn farmers out of business or join with other farms to build bigger farms with less overhead. Make them farmers work for bigger farms and it'll produce more money for farmers.

@dueroger5 жыл бұрын
I listened to this entire video & I think that there are some serious omissions by just focusing on the tariffs. (1) You must take into account ALL trade barriers associated with selling a product into another country, not just tariffs. Until DJT got into office, almost any country could sell about anything into our country as long as their cost of production & shipping to our country was low enough that they could undercut prices for similar products made in our country. In general, we didn't apply tariffs to those products being imported into our country & we didn't apply expensive artificial requirements on those products. (2) IF other countries were as open to letting us ship our products to them as we have been to letting them ship products to us, then this so called "trade war" wouldn't be an issue. (3) BUT both the EU (European Union) & China have made it extremely difficult to ship products from our country to them by imposing both tariff & non-tariff trade barriers that effectively make it non-competitive for us to ship products to them and still be profitable. You must look at the whole package of trade barriers!!! (4) I'm very sure that DJT has a very good understanding of all issues surrounding international trade, yet 99.999% of people would fall asleep if he tried to explain the details. That is one reason the "economic experts" are not listened to by most people. (5) I have an MBA & had to take multiple economic classes as part of my requirements, so I probably have a better understanding of "free trade" & "international trade" than 99% of the population. I can easily see that some of the rhetoric that DJT is using with regard to China is aimed at helping most Americans understand what is at stake. Yet the details are far more complex. (6) DJT is NOT actually saying that for every $100 of goods that we import from China, they must buy $100 of our goods. What he is saying is that the trade must be balanced in that neither country should be putting artificial non-monetary trade barriers in place just to stop the other country. (7) One of the things people need to understand about DJT is that he is a master at simplifying the arguments so that most people can grasp what is at stake. He needs to get general buy in so that his experts can work on the painful details and hopefully get the House & Senate to accept the corrections. If he were to publicly discuss all of the details, nothing would ever get done, and he knows that!!! (8) I've worked in the hi-tech sector for many decades. If you've paid attention to what DJT & many others have been saying for many years, China has put up very significant barriers to selling many products into their country. For example, for many products where we had a significant technology edge, yet our companies wanted to expand distribution into China, the Chinese would require conditions that essentially resulted in stealing our technology over time. This is part of the IP (Intellectual Property) issues DJT keeps talking about. (9) Keep in mind that DJT is NOT a protectionist in the traditional sense of the word, yet there are some industries that we really need to be careful that they don't all go to our adversaries, such as China (for example, what is needed to maintain a strong military).

Roger Due you’re on the money with your comment especially about the intellectual property part couple years back the Chinese hacked into the technology that powered a US built windmill technology- once they got the software and schematics they started producing their own windmills. Similar stories across all industries whatever they import over there they copy and manufacture and discontinue importing. They’ve even done this with cars unbadged BMW and rolls Royce’s being produced over there

I lost my Die Setter Job because of this trade war back in april.

The company had several potential new investers from diffrent countries and here in the U.S but they all backed out saying the cost wasn't worth it. All said its because of Trump.
@charlesatanasio43635 жыл бұрын
All said, it's because a bunch of Democrats and Republicans made a bunch of shady deals with Russia and China and sold us out. We've been in a trade war since the 70s, and our politicians have been giving China very lopsided deals in exchange for tons of anonymous 'campaign contributions'. Trump just admitted there was a problem and did something about it. It wouldn't be such a painful transition if the idiots had just done their damn jobs in the first place. Also, because of the state of the economy, you'll get your job back easily. Thanks to Trump. So put on your big boy pants and stop complaining.

You have to put yourself in the shoes of a woman with a High School diploma and her $30K a year job is everything to her. She is keeping a roof over her kids, maybe just a small apartment, and food and they can go to school and not go hungry. Survival is not a pleasant place to dwell in. A lot of Americans live in that Survival Zone. I know that feeling. I had one job to pay the bills and one extra job to save and invest. It was not fun working between a day job and hurrying over to a night job and working 60 plus hours a week. But employers where I was were always needing workers. So I could work as much as I could stand. Fortunately I didn't have kids until later in life and I saved my money. It's not fun being frugal. It is not the message the media sends us consumers. But I didn't buy a new car until I was 42 years old. I just dread having to do it again.
