TeachMeCode509640dCould someone explain why these tariffs will help us? I’m being super neutral, I don’t care who created them, it could’ve been Biden, Obama, bush, I would still be asking this question…

TeachMeCode509640d@Demolishun thanks for being informative and giving a straight non emotionally driven answer, and not a typical combative Redditor lol. I needed that

retoor836340dI'm very excited. I have no idea how it turns out. But if it turns out good for America he's a king.

h3rp1d3v51040d@Demolishun FYI, in China, import tax on most goods has been between 0-10%. 15% on electronics, 50% on alcohol/ cosmetics/luxuries. 34% sweeping tariff will increase your bills significantly.

12bitfloat1049240dWhy is everyone too fucking retarded to know how tariffs work
They create short term downturn in exchange for long term prosperity by making it more attractive for companies to invest in the US creating manufacturing capacity and jobs
How hard is this to understand? -
h3rp1d3v51039d@12bitfloat Unless people are willing to take horrible jobs with shitty pays, manufacturing jobs are not going back to the US. Assembly line workers in China work 12 hours per day, 6 days a week, for less than $3 per hour. Even if people are willing to take those minimum wage jobs with horrible working conditions, US consumers will still choose cheaper Chinese alternatives. US farming equipments are 4 times more expensive than Chinese alternatives and US equipments are shittier due to anticompetitive practices (no right to repair). With thin profit margins, farmers can't possibly afford US farming equipments. Adding 34% tariffs will absolutely crash farming industry. No one will want to buy from US farmers and 34% tariff is not enough to make US farming equipments competitive.
US has been profiting from slavery labor in China. If the US no longer wants to profit from slavery labor, good for them 😂 -
