This is CONSUME PRODUCT, where we encourage each other not to CONSUME a bunch of useless shit, such as your chinese imported crap. Now you guys are whining you might have to pay a slightly higher price on imported chinese shit? So you admit you've been CONSUMING foreign goods up to this point?
This is a throw away culture. People throw shit away sometimes when it just needs a new fuse or an easily replaceable maintenance part.
The democrats are going to need to pay slightly more for their imported grill that rusts by the end of every summer? Or slightly more for their imported cellphone that they stare at all day? Or the faggots will have to pay more for the rainbow flags they import from thailand or wherever the fuck?
You want me to get mad about having to pay an extra 10-20% of shit i already don't buy.
Go into any democrat city on trash pick-up day. People are throwing away all kinds of shit that third worlders would fight
over. Make the fuckers pay for their CONSUMPTION addiction.
I understand the mainstream fox news right wing talking points. USA is getting screwed by tariffs on our exports, tarriffs will bring manufacturing back, etc. Frankly, there's some factory work producing widgets that i don't want any fucking part of. Why are you guys opposed to foreign slave bug people producing some of your shit for you? Let some chink produce the LED bulbs that i solder on to a circuit board. Or don't.
I don't have enough skin in the game. I do not produce anything that i am trying to export to foreign nations. Nor do i consume much shit from foreign nations. I sometimes buy something on ebay or scAmazon that probably came from china. but i could have just gone to the thrift store or to a yard sale and found something usable.

First statement you are against Tariffs because they dont affect you. Now you're arguing for tariffs and punishing the consumption. Make up your damn mind. I agree tariffs are good and people dont need half the shit they buy.
you're right. I'm not making a good argument one way or the other. I think i am indecisive and i'm not quite sure how the tariffs will affect me yet. In principle i am against them. But i think some of the arguments how this might be an effective strategy in reducing tariffs on USA manufactured goods might be a good long term strategy.
As someone who went to college and learned about business, economics, finance, and accounting. Got a Bachelor of business administration degree, majoring in accounting. Am presently an accountant. I'll preface what I'm about to say in that my teachers hated that I saw through the lies they taught, yet they couldn't challenge the facts I presented in various assignments and research papers. They wanted us all to obey the mantra that globalism and international free trade are amazing good things.
The tariffs are only a problem for the top 0.1% rich people trying to maximize the amount of money they can gain. Those are the only ones who benefit from international free trade. For the actual people living within the first world country free trade is only harmful. Yet it can be portrayed as beneficial as the cost of goods produced do decrease, however the reduction in local real jobs is harmful.
Tariff's damage international free trade and encourages internal production. Costs go up, but the money being spent remains in the local economy instead of leaving. Driving further economic local growth.
Trump is really using them as a negotiating tactic, however in honesty, placing tariffs on all imports is beneficial for the local economy. Whether that local economy is being talked about as the US, Canada, Britain, or any other western nation that has actual production capacity.
How much production capacity do we really have? I hear people talking about automation but i don't think we're there yet. And in the past, Republicans used vacant jobs as an excuse for approving more visas and migrants coming into the USA each year, which fucks over the local White population.
