Trump is setting in motion a number of steps, he, and his administration, believes will bring jobs to America. And, those jobs will be found among his base.
So, which retarded point are you trying to make. You're a slippery little dip shit aren't you?topdawgnc said:
I don't know, or even pretend to know why Trump is doing it. But when the dust settles he'll be held accountable at the ballot box.dflea said:Watching toppy hug Houston's nuts is as funny as watching Houston hug Trump's nuts.
I know about tariffs on a macro level, fuckface. I know virtually every economist will say they're stupid and ineffective and only lead to higher prices. Then there's retarded twats like you and Houston who support higher consumer prices because you just gotta wash Trump's balls like the faggot you are.
Gee, let's roll back regulations to save costs - and then implement tariffs.......to raise costs.
You're a fucking retard, toppy. -
The odds of that are exactly zero.dflea said:

Not here to argue a particular side but just pointing out that it's called "the dismal science" for a reason. Anyone with real knowledge of the subject isn't hanging out in the Tug arguing with people that took "Economics for home finance".creepycoug said:

You're a fucking retard, toppy.
You're knowledge of tariffs is about the same level of understanding, of that I am sure.
Implemented tariffs don't work. However, in negotiations, the threat does work. Of course nothing works if don't have a purpose to threaten the tariff.
I assume, since you are hurling insults and being an Interwebs tuff guy, you now what the larger purpose is and why Trump is doing what he is.
I don't know, or even pretend to know why Trump is doing it. But when the dust settles he'll be held accountable at the ballot box.
You'll spout off and be the tuff guy you are and make fun of Trump.
Just like you did when he ran his campaign that went 18-0 against some of the biggest names in political history.
In the end, you're just a dumb fuck who strokes his meat pretending to be something you're not.
The Art of the Deal.
If you can explain the details of the bigger play. Please do.
Everyone calls Trump a dumb shit ...
But we all seem to be cashing his tax cut, and enjoying the stock market growth.
18-0
I couldn't give two fucks.
There are few here, outside of Houston, who understand this on a bigger scale (I know macro confuses you and your butt buddies).
Amused at you and the rest of the donkey's who are mouth breathing over this and all you can say is:
Trump
Higher prices
Now why don't you run along and go play lawyer.81%99.99966% of poasters don't understand macro.
Not taking sides so don't twist. Just a whole lot of bad info and misconceptions I read on here while lurking.
p.s. If you don't get the regression joke then you don't understand macro either.
That's why he answered with a non-answer. But he doesn't care, apparently.
But few can resist the opportunity to turn @dflea and @creepycoug into slobbering mouth breathers who can only keep barking
Trump
Higher prices
I miss watching those two shit themselves ...
Look at toppy pretending he accomplished something. The funny thing is, compared to his typical useless existence, poasting on an internet bulletin board probably IS an accomplishment for him.
You don't have to take many econ classes before you figure out what a fucking idiotic idea tariffs are. If you have an Econ degree, then you've seen plenty of case studies on the pros and cons of import restrictions and tariffs. The list of pros is short - like toppy's little weiner - and the list of cons is long. Generally speaking tariffs are bad fucking trade policy, and it doesn't make any damn difference if it's Trump, Obama or Bush proposing them - other than to political ballwashers.
Go find some positive news on tariffs and trade restrictions, dumbass. Go ahead. Bring your tariff glory stories.
Trump's just being a whore for votes, and nothing more - well, and maybe giving Icahn an opportunity to clean up on some insider trading while you lick his shoes. He's also playing a risky game to get it done. If it only led to you losing your stupid middle-manager any-asshole-could-do-this-job job, I wouldn't give a fuck. But his big mouthhole isn't helping me any with his tariff threats, so he can eat shit.
And so can you. -
It's OK Flea... There's very little steel or aluminum in ass beads and dildos.salemcoog said:

You're gonna be just fine.

TL, DR
None the less ... my point is made.
Now clean the slobber off your keyboard, calm down and go upstairs and kiss your mom. -
@topdawgnc is Sam Nunberg!
And @HoustonHusky is his unrequited gay lover roger stone.
The plot thickens... -
Sounds like we got an expert here. If only he would enlighten us but he only poasts on the higher discussion economics boards. He's taken a college course, has done regressions and tuned into Fed webinars. OMG. Chime in with something tangible that would lead me to believe that you know something that we don't or eat a dick.UW_Doog_Bot said:

Vs being a cuckold with China coming over and screwing your wife nightly why you just sit back and take it?creepycoug said:
Protectionism. Like screwing your wife's best friend, it feels good in the moment. Eventually, it becomes the worst decision you ever made.HoustonHusky said:Sounds grand, but "material" is only about 15% of the total cost of a pipeline...labor is the largest chunk of it, transportation of the pipes, land rights, etc. etc. So a 25% tariff on steel means the actual pipeline costs only go up less than 4%...

Both options suck...but at least with one you are actually getting some...

It was for the UAW. Bond holders for fuckef. The government siezed the company.creepycoug said:
2008 was an investment in preferred stock sanctioned by the private sector. something for something. not something for nothing.Sledog said:Steel and aluminium=too important to fail. Maybe Trump should just seize the companies. Many here like that kind of thing.
if it hadn't happened, you'd be eating out of a garbage can.
The president is carrying we need to keep our steel and aluminum producers. It's strategically important for national security.
I like national security. I didn't think the impact will be that big and have no horse in the race at all. But we have to be able to build the weapons of war.
