I do not manufacture products. What i do is provide work/labor/service. So the tariffs do not impact me as much as say someone who owns a factory making widgets.

So when the factory owner moves production to India to save labor costs, you the individual laborer aren't affected?

Look at it this way. Do White men need to produce every single commodity and widget and Popsicle stick and pez dispenser and box fan and pencil ourselves? Some tasks i'm okay with outsourcing to some dollar a week foreign slave. LOL do you guys want to manufacture Popsicle sticks in a factory all day? Some of these jobs are beneath White people. Some monotonous repetitive task leave to the bug people to do. LOL

Tariffs affect service industry wages as well. If manufacturing declines due to international outsourcing, a greater proportion of the local populace moves into a service/labor type job. That creates a glut of labor supply in those service/labor fields, driving down wages. The same shit happens when you invite 100 million beaners into your country to mow lawns. It's a huge surplus of labor for lawn mowing, so lawn mowing pays dirt.
