Jimmy Dore is an idiot and anyone who watches him is an idiot too.
I voted Bernie in the primaries and have probably been the biggest advocate for M4A on JPP.
But I also understand that moderates need time to come around, so incremental changes -like the ACA and lowering Medicare's eligibility- get us closer to where we need to be than we ever would if we elected Republicans.
they have ran on this the last 50+ years..............................
I blame those who voted for them and ignored those who tried to expose them.
Because they rose their tariffs on us, and tariffs aren't paid by governments, they're paid by businesses who then pass those costs down to consumers.
Trump's dumb Trade War was so awful that we had to spend $30B (3x the auto rescue) to rescue farmer trash from their own shitty ideas.

They sure do. They refused to convict the former Corruption-in-Chief TWICE for violating the law. They are doing everything they can to restrict voting and disenfranchise the ppl who are unlikely to vote for them. They misinterpret the 2nd Amendment to mean hand-cannons and arsenals for all. They did absolutely NOTHING to quell the rising insurrection that culminated on Jan. 6.
So what about those great policies and plans that the QOP has for us, which is the topic of discussion here? You've got nothing to say about that?

I don't care who pays it. bottom line is it makes slave labor less profitable.
subsidizing farmers during a trade war is smart. the opposite is dumb, like you.
You should care.
No it doesn't. it makes products more expensive. It doesn't even come close to addressing slave labor. The TPP did, but y'all opposed that, remember?
No, it's incredibly dumb and a waste of money for absolutely no reward.

you're a fascist neocon globalist. dumb as fuck too.
It is entirely fascist for the government to prop up businesses that were killed by the very trade policy they supported.

making slave goods more expensive makes them less competitive, and allows a space for free people to work in.
you're a globalist fascist idiot.

the important thing with trade is to at least maintain capacity in key industries.
like, would it be smart to rely on china for military supply chains, or food.
if china dominates the market in cheap crap only, that's not as bad.
so an overall trade deficit number is less meaningful, given these factors.

Again, it doesn't do that because any costs are just passed onto consumers and they strangle smaller businesses who cannot pay those tariffs the way major, bigger businesses can.

to an extent yes. farming is special cuz its food though.
is Amazon's c.I.a. contract fascism to an extent?

and if the consumer has to pay more, he may just choose to buy something american made with no tariffs.
do we need to have the elastic/inelastic demand discussion?

you said businesses don't pay tariffs?
tariffs provide a space for free people to work within. for sure, definitely. maybe you're economically retarded?
No they don't...they're just added cost to the business, who then passes those costs down to consumers.
No. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about, and it shows.

the biggest impediment to smaller business venues is the increasing number and cost of licenses and permits required by local, county, state, and sometimes federal entities to just start up a business
