Trump tariffs create budget surplus

The fool doesn't realize there are no American manufacturers to compete with cheap overseas labor. He's using antiquated rhetoric to describe the way tariffs used to work.

True. Tariffs are only helpful to protect a country's own manufacturers when those manufacturers exist.

It should be interesting, assuming that TACO doesn't kick the tariffs down the road 10 more times, to see if certain sectors of manufacturing actually return to the U.S. Like shoes, appliances, clothing, electronics, plastics, home goods, OTC drugs, etc. Even with tariffs in place, all those things are going to cost a LOT more because 1) building or retooling factories and installing robotics is very expensive, and 2) American labor costs much more than Vietnamese, Pakistan, or Mexico's. Will the solution to that be doing what we're doing now -- looking the other way and pretending not to see the undocumented workers working and earning less than minimum wage? Even with tariffs making those items more expensive, American-made similar items will still cost even more.

Eating a jelly roll is all the work out that you do. :laugh: You doing a workout is as real as Mr. Owl having a 15% EF and the Medicaid doctor saying he was capable of work.

I have confidence in American workers to be able to make your fat ass jeans for a reasonable price. We have done it in the past before our jobs were shipped off shore in favor of the slave labor that you are so fond of supporting. Trump is trying to bring jobs back to the US so that people can buy homes and get their part of the American dream.

Try to get it through your thick skull:

TRUMP DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYBODY BUT HIMSELF. IF A THING WOULD SERIOUSLY HURT EVERY PERSON IN AMERICA EXCEPT HIMSELF...AND WOULD, IN FACT, BE A BENEFIT TO HIM...HE WOULD SNATCH IT UP IN A SECOND. HE WOULD ALSO PROCLAIM THAT ANYONE WHO WOULD NOT DO SO IS A SUCKER.

Those kinds of manufacturing jobs will never return here. That is just another right-wing dingbat fantasy.

She truly is a low-IQ, low-info, low-honesty, low-morals cunt, isn't she? No wonder she's scissoring the deplorable toxic trash so hard. :rofl2:

One of the most fascinating things about JPP is observing how angry, hateful and violent all the Trumpers are on a daily basis.

What is so fucked up in their lives that they are compelled to vent hatred on Americans and threaten violence to others? Many of them have threatened beatings and murder on JPP. Others have applauded the threats of violence through emoji reactions.

Senior aggression: Why it happens and what you can do

Here's how to identify aggressive behavior in seniors, the health factors behind the outbursts and how to get your loved one help.
www.care.com www.care.com
seniors facing limited mobility, increased isolation and loneliness, and other major stress factors related to aging, those negative feelings might seem tenfold. But while people of all ages, including older adults, are bound to experience (and project) negative emotions from time to time, persistent, unprovoked anger could be a sign of something more serious...

...“It’s not normal for previously non-hostile older adults to start exhibiting ongoing, repeated, out-of-character aggression,” he explains, noting that aggression in seniors is often indicative of a health issue that warrants attention ASAP.

Good old Dutch. Was a molested boy scout when it was younger. Somehow in its gender confused mind that was "service". STFU you fucking coward.

Just for him thinking about things he would like to do.

Guilt of what, coward? The fact that you'll hide from anyone who wants you face to face, one on one to counter your lies and insults?

I have nothing to fear from the police, pussy. They respect me and my marksmanship abilities. We get along well. I need not hide behind them

Wait... I was told he "chickened out" because he "always chickens out"... How can we make money on tariffs if they've never started because he "always chickens out"?

FoulWoman hates me because I see through her lies. Like her husband had 15% ejection fraction and a medical doctor said he was capable of work. A 15% EF is end stage cardiac disease and people with that severe cardiac dysfunction are generally wheeler chair bound because walking across the room is too taxing for them. I'm not suggesting that at some point Mr. Owl may have had a 15% EF just that ANY DOCTOR told him he was capable of work when he had a documented EF of 15%. That is absurd.

I wouldn't say never. It would take Billions to build the infrastructure needed , and a lot of the jobs they bring back will be done by AI and robots , and American wages will have to come down in order to complete on the world market and I don't see that happening, Americans aren't going to work for 5 dollars an hour any more.
