You far right lunatics are so cynical and nihilistic and masochistic that you applaud taxes on yourselves in rank contradiction to all conservative values.
In this upcoming election you are going to vote for taxes on yourself and every single tax payer in the country. Not just the rich or corporations, it will hit the middle class hard.
Trump is trying to do something about a China who has stolen trillions from us and runs a 700 billion dollar deficit. You must be happy with that right?
Scotti is so idiotic that he fails to see that the tariff fight we are in right now goes both ways. His cnbs article doesn't mention the gains we have had in this country that far off set the tariffs China has put on us. Its as if you people enjoy China putting middle class people out of work and stealing our technology.
Atl are you an idiot or a liar? The trade deficit with China has increased since the trump tax increases started.
I never said the trade deficit was going down. Did that little voice inside your head make you think that I did?
My industry, like many others in manufacturing has had a resurgence due to tariffs on cheap Chinese products. None of that is even touched on in your cherry picking article that is attempting to make Trump look bad. The trade deficit is temporary as we are in the middle of a chess match with the Chinese. Are you that naive to think that the Chinese devils would just sit there like idiots and not try to hard ball us?
Do I just need to assume that you are happy with 700 billion dollar deficits and the trillions lost to China because of their IP theft? Are you really that Anti-American? Do you not have any FEELINGS for the millions that get hurt by the trade deficit? My guess is you could really give a shit about anything but your politics and you and cnbs are simply out to slant the truth in an effort to get Trump. Pretty pathetic.
You argue here and have done many time before that a trade deficit is inherently a negative. In that case then the Trump tariffs which take the form of the largest middle class tax increase in multiple generations which actually make the trade deficit worse they must likewise be an inherent negative. It’s almost like a trade deficit isn’t an inherent negative....but hey Atl is all in on the largest middle class tax increase in generations because he’s selling more labels. Now that is the definition of rooting for the away team.
So the middle class is experiencing full employment and increasing wages and that is a bad thing? A 700 billion $ trade deficit to China is a good thing?
The whole "tax increase" thing is bullshit. Made up of thin air. Let me back up what Bob said: Don't buy Chinese products. It pretty simple.
But when Trump gets this thing back around and decreases the trade deficit you will call it a massive tax cut right? You will give Trump that due right?
We all know you won't. You don't really care about the truth, you just want your politicians ruling over our lives.
The conflation in this post is astounding even for a huge liar like you. No one ever said full employment is a bad thing but it has nothing to do with this middle class tax increase. We are at full employment because we have had the longest economic expansion in the history of our country of which Trump has been president for about a quarter of. A trade deficit isn't a good thing or a bad thing. You can have the best trade terms possible and a booming Whand have a trade deficit or have shit terms and a shit economy and run a trade surplus.
Again, the trade deficit isn't the tax on the middle class moron, the tariffs are. Try sticking to the truth sometime for a change....
Blah blah blah. Trade deficits have put millions out of work you moron. There is not positive in trade deficits. None. In case you forgot, BO championed the slowest economic turnaround since the start of the great depression. He killed economic growth. He brilliantly put people out of work in the energy sector and then lectured all of us about how we would just have to get used to permanent off shore manufacturing losses. BO like you if a fucking moron who still to this day knows nothing about improving the economy.
Yet here you are trying to tell us all that BO was a great economic leader. FFS use Google search before you post again.,
It’s a damn good thing that selling labels doesn’t require any sort of economic literacy cause holy shit man you’d be in trouble. It is entertaining though watching you flail and display your ignorance.
Selling labels? WTF are you talking about?
HH doesn't like it either when I talk trade deficits to the tune of 700 billion. Why don't you two financial geniuses tell us all how that is good for our economy. For good measure give us the benefits of trillions in tech theft as well. A decent explanation will reveal to us all how you have such a good grasp on the economy and liberal maf.
