Ive addressed this repeatedly here, including directly to you.
This is essentially a meaningless hypothetical. You assume we have to, I disagree.
Ive said it once, to my knowledge.
Got us where, exactly? That's what I've asked you to address directly.
This also isn't any kind cogent thought, at best, and a straw man at worst.
Who's contesting this sarcasm?
Lol a joking exchange about golf. 'lel fuckin schooled!'. Nobacon is one of the dumbest posters here, brothaman, but defend him if you will. Wow, he writes codes about tariffs! He must understand the theory of economics! Jeets must be smartest people on earth then.
What detail would you like? From level of knowledge are you operating from? I've asked you to explain what are the issues we're facing and what got us there, yet you haven't. 'Things suck!' Ok, but what exactly sucks?
Do you want a history on tariffs and why/when they work and when they don't? Again, let me know what level we're starting from and I'll try to help you out. You got butthurt because I said there's some real stupidity in these threads, probably assuming I was talking about you.

Maybe I missed it. How did you address the Chinese abusing the free trade market? Still no answers in any of your responses. Please elaborate.
My second question: How is it a meaningless hypothetical? We have exploited nations for the past century which has constituted the “spend money to make money” mentality. We exploited SA nations for decades, then moved on to the Middle East after the 90’s (you know, when the Jews attacked us and brought us into the Middle East). Which is backfiring greatly, because Muslims aren’t inherently greedy.
Third question: you have said it multiple times in one way or another, just in this thread. Yet never exposed any of your history or knowledge of the subject.
Fourth question: Where we are at, is a line. Do we continue our bubble of lies? Or do we make a shift and start doing hard work. I’m not convinced these tariffs are 100% the way either, but it’s a much better solution than to sit here and make fake money that won’t mean anything in 20 years. If you don’t think America is on the verge of collapse (I don’t mean in a biblical form where everyone just shoots eachother) you’re fucking retarded. It might not be today, but we’re on a very bad route. It needs correcting.
Fifth point: No it isn’t. It’s a statement on how you’re afraid you might have to buckle down and realize half the shit you consume is worthless, you retard.
Sixth point: Apparently you. You think it’s great to see americas biggest cities fail. Industry is actual money. What does America produce at this point besides war? That’s meaningless when you can no longer wage real war against countries.
Seventh point: Nope, I’m pretty sure it was in this very thread, where he told you his background in software and what he does. It’s about tariffs. I could not give a fuck less about golf, or if Trump lies about it or not. The faggot lies about his skin color. Who gives a fuck.
Eighth point: You still didn’t answer any of the questions I presented you, and just tried to deflect. Notice how I answered all of your statements, you will not do the same. You are a boomer, my guess is, you are a “consultant”. You are worthless to society and are upset that people are beginning to realize it.
I will once again, pose this question for everyone here: What is the better solution?
An answer cannot be “just not this”.
