any opinions on the trade tariffs?
most big shot economists on both sides are opposed.
they've never lost their job to low wage foreigners like i have.
even the news commentators, including fox are bad mouthing tariffs.
they're all saying cost of goods will increase, 1 cent on beer, $175 on cars.
i'll gladly pay that extra small percentage to support an American worker.
are we willing to lower our standard of living even further to compete with extremely poor countries and their poverty life style?
i've bought stuff directly from those countries because what i want is no longer made here.
even if you can find the goods here, an importer is just selling foreign made stuff.
after talking with the foreign sales people describing their way of living, i definitely wouldn't trade places with them.
china is already kicking our butt with india close behind.
china is the one that needs a big tariff.
just wait until africa, north korea, etc. unleash their zero wage workers on the world trade market.
i want to hear a regular work a day person tell me they're against the tariffs.
how do we eliminate the 600 billion trade deficit?
