Any intelligent person would wait and see exactly what effect the tariffs will have for the American economy
and the American consumer.
And a truly wise person - - one who has an education and has done his economics homework - -
would quite reliably predict that a trade war will have disastrous effects for all parties concerned.
Science studies have shown that cooperation in economics is far more favorable to all sides than
narrow-minded self-interest alone.
I guess some folks have to learn the hard way by seeing their finances damaged before
they see the light.
You don't have any idea what you're talking about.
Do YOU have a degree in Economics??? Have YOU any idea what tariffs other countries are charging us, compared to what we are charging them? No, you don't.
The real issue here, is that very rich people are making money on trade with other countries and don't much care how THAT effects our country or consumers. The crops that are being sold most to other countries are soy beans. GMO soy beans, to be exact.
Just try going to Trader Joe's and buy produce grown in the USA. Slowly, our farmers have given up competing with Mexico's produce.
But, you don't care about THAT hurting farmers, do you?
And then there's the loss of millions of US jobs, due to trade agreements.
Another thing YOU don't consider or care about, right?
Any "wise" or "intelligent" person would not speak about things they don't understand or know.
