Economics Thread

Can you tell me how tariffs are the principal driver..

The last several months have already illustrated that no, no one can tell you how. Or rather, they can tell you how, but it won’t sink in.

Well you can't even tell me how prices have gone up outside of anecdotes.

Why are producer prices plummeting in China?

Eventually it should be obvious that tariffs are taxes on people huh?

Responsible management of our economy/future.

Could you imagine seeing this revolutionary technology on the horizon and think we shouldn't do anything to ensure our supremacy in these areas.

Soon the argument will be the economy would be doing even better without the tariffs!

It is amusing to hear people talk about rising costs when Americans take home will be much higher this year.

Americans are surely going to be mad at paying a 50 cents more for some goods when they are able to afford a home.

Almost all of our economic issues would be solved if we just deported 10-20M people.

Who’s against the US positioning itself to lead in this sector?

Thanks, Joe!

As long as we don’t change global trade!

Would you believe that the AI industry can succeed even if we don’t pay more for bananas and clothing?

If we don't deport minimum 10M illegals from this country there will be mass civil unrest because of the automation that is just on the horizon.

Further than that - We have to restrict legal immigration severly to only the absolute brightest.

I'm confused on what happens when all the workers are replaced. Who has money to buy stuff from Amazon and others when you have no job?

I'm not too worried about my job as a project manager/estimator in construction in Mississippi, but I'm sure there's gonna be a killer to many Americans this next decade

Correct... another disastrous dumb assumption policy from the worst president since FDR

This is straight up retard behavior.

Anyoen with a remote beat on the car industry knows that COVID jacked up the prices of the used cars because new cars weren't being made and there's no motive for anyone to jack up production because everyone is making more money.

Also the modern car is not built to last and really hasn't been for almost 20 years.

Even ignoring that, what kind of retard shit is it that you'd blaming a program from 16 years ago to the modern issue.

Playing the odds, what are the chances that a 96 Ford Explorer would still be road ready today?
