    Trump campaigned on ending the Russia-Ukraine war on “ day one”. He failed, so now he says “ Just kidding”. That’s what losers do when they are wrong or fail on a promise. “I didn’t really mean it.”

    Big girl got a reaction from UT alum in Tariffs DO Work - But Liberals Have To Stop CRYING (Proof inside)   
    Yeah right. Economists said that  they were one of the reasons that deepened the Great Depression.. Does this sound familiar
    Purpose: The act was designed to protect American farmers and manufacturers by making imported goods more expensive, thus encouraging consumers to buy domestically produced products. Impact: The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act raised tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods, significantly increasing the average tariff rate. Retaliation: Other countries retaliated with their own tariffs on American goods, leading to a decline in U.S. exports and a collapse of international trade. Consequences: The act is widely considered to have deepened the Great Depression by making it harder for American businesses to sell goods abroad and contributing to a global economic downturn. Criticism: Many economists and historians criticize the act as a policy misstep and a cautionary example of protectionism. Later Developments: The act was eventually followed by the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934, which sought to promote more liberal trade agreements.

    But you recognize the hypocrisy between having outrage over a tampon machine in the boys bathroom because of the message that it sends to the kids, while simultaneously supporting a man who teaches young men to grab women by the p-word, right? If morals and decency weren’t important then, why are they important now?
    The sad truth of the matter is this-if Donald Trump came out in a dress as the spokesperson for his new “Trumpons” for men, you’d be splayed out on the floor with a mirror trying to figure out the two-part applicator.

    Ok… here’s my sarcasm-free perspective. 
     
    Other countries charge tariffs for goods we export. Americans have preferred that tariffs NOT be charged on good into this country because we like cheap stuff. They send consumables our way and we send treasures back theirs. At the end of the day, we aren’t “paying” their tariffs on our goods. Their citizens cover those costs at the point of purchase.  But by the same token, they aren’t going to be laying “our” new tariffs, either. Those costs will be passed on the American consumer by way of higher prices. 
     
    They idea that we’re somehow “sticking it to China” with a 145% tariff collected on Chinese goods that you and I will pay at the cash register is laughable. 
     
    I’m all for balancing the trade deficit. But that’s impossible unless Americans are willing to pay more to buy American goods. It sounds good on paper, but there’s a reason business moved their production overseas…. They couldn’t compete because Americans don’t care whether Nikes are made here or in the Philippines… 
    We’ve been preaching “buy American since the 1970s and it hasn’t happened.  And it won’t. 
     
    Personally I’m in favor of a smaller trade deficit and I believe that tariffs are a decent way to try and even things out. But it’s hard to argue with a straight face that Trump’s approach has been anything but disastrous. All he’s proven is that trillions of dollars of wealth can disappear with a few stupid tweets, and it really looks like he doesn’t know what he’s doing-and that makes investors, lenders, businesses very, very bearish.

    With the current tax code (6,871 pages) it doesn't matter if you set the tax rate at 10% or 90%...........they will pay $0 in taxes. Stop griping about tax rates and start asking for the tax code to be done away with. Taxes could be really simple across the board from Musk and Bezos all the way down to me. Doesn't really matter what the rates are set at if the wealthy have all the write offs. 
    BUT, none of them will attempt to change the tax code when all of their big money donors (on both sides of the aisle) want it and use the hell out of it
