Can you give us a working example of this 100% tariffs?

Sudden do Bajans have tariffs on products because they come from America?

I really cannot....but it is obvious that the numbers even if not wholly accurate are close and reflect a huge deficit in the trade agreements of countries.

These tariffs as I understand it are not all encompassing....so 100% may not mean a country charges 100% across the board, but there are goods that thesecountries tariff at 100% while enjoying no tariffs on their shipments to the US.

A country cannot survive by operating this way.

Much of the losses the average American citizen suffers is due to inequitable trade.

But that's the point, Trump Tariff on a place with zero population is just as ineffective, in addition to many of the others he put in place but none on Russia.... just goes to show where is loyalty lies and up whose arse his head is...That fugger so afraid of Putin that he won't even give the slightest hint of anything. Meanwhile Putin eating his ass for lunch on that Ukraine cease fire.

Was it fair for Reagan to exert pressure that ensured "factory agriculture" could "dump" carrots in The Caribbean" for 1/2 the price of what local producers could sell? Okay for US via Chiquita/Del Monte go to court to ensure ACP small farmers couldn't get preferential "tariff protections" to sell bananas to Europe? That's akin to Walmart drowning out small businesses, then making millions but paying workers peanuts and no benefits forcing the rest of us to pay their staff's Healthcare. But, they walk away with billions

What unfair situation?

Who the fcuk will buy/import made in USA shyte with such high costs of production coupled with a high value dollar?

The U.S. (since the late 60's) created the current situation in their never ending quest to exploit cheap foreign labour and importing from countries with weak and devalued currency all in the name of profits.

If you do that do Ayenmol he may actually start to have doubts about knowing everything.

But Trump and his cabal know this well and good. Just feeding coal miners pipe dreams all the while laughing himself to the bank with his other rich buddies.

The Pee Tapes must be something for him to so blatantly be so blatant big grin

The Dotard's tariffs are nothing more than an unabashed taxation on the working class to pay for the massive tax cuts to billionaires.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

The real problem in American is companies having tens of billions of dollars cash on hand and market caps in the trillions. But Trump told a room full of them he was going to make them rich.

And now you really believe he is trying to solve America's problems?

All the mal-educated slop that voted for this convicted dumbass Dotard are now all of a sudden experts on economics, international trade, and tariffs.
