usa politicians in charge of the economy for the past 50 years were too stupid to understand how the economy works.
this just proves my theory, that an education on the top tier universities just sucks and means nothing in the real world, unless its in the stem education.

Don’t mind the recent volatility in the markets.
Have been trading some quality stocks. Buy them low and get rid of them when
they rebound. Easy money in just a couple of days!
Only if they go back up, its nothing but a timing gamble in this type of market - unless you are one of Trumps buddies.
But yes - if you are lucky you might do well.

I watched an economist today that estimated it would take 3 years and 30 billion dollars for Apple to bring just 10 % of its manufacturing to the US. If they were made in America, it would triple the price of an iPhone.
There are good reasons for any country to improve its debt but ignoring trade agreements and pissing off allies and partners - not to mention enemies, probably isn't the best way to earn trust.

If you are unsure about the 1930 tariff, here's a reminder from Ferris Bueller's Day Off:
rowan williams, the former archbishop of canterbury gave an interesting answer to the somewhat stark question, what’s the point of us existing?
as a christian, my starting point is that we exist because the most fundamental form of activity, energy, call it what you like, that is there, is love.
that is, it’s a willingness that the other should be.
f you’re willing, I’d love to keep discussing this. I’ve been where you are—in the wrestling, in the questions, and in the desire for clarity. But truth has a way of inviting us deeper. And sometimes what sounds strange turns out to be the only thing that makes sense.
Sorry - you must have me confused with someone else. What Im really asking is how anyone can delude themselves into believing any of this. Its a made up story from a couple of thousand years ago, when people still didnt understand things like what causes diseases, what stars are, what the moon is, tectonic plate movement, etc.
In short they were more ignorant times than now and you can forgive our ancestors for reaching for answers. We cant hide behind that same ignorance today.

So when we ask, “Who is the Holy Spirit?”, the answer is not a what but a who.
This sentence makes absolutely no sense - its like something from a Simpsons episode, or the 'who's on first ?' comedy skit by Abott and Costello.
The term “person” in Trinitarian theology does not carry the modern psychological or behavioral meaning it often does in casual speech today.
Of course it doesnt - how convenient.

Aqwswd, I haven't read everything here but I have a question.
How do you explain the holy spirit? What is it exactly?
If the holy spirit is god too, it must be another deity right? Complete with its own personality? Who is the holy spirit?
It can't just be a force if it is god.

Anonymous, you are using examples of companies already manufacturing inside the US.
That is absurdly different to a company that operates on the other side of the world and now wants to set up in the US. You make it sound like it's a trivial thing to do.

Simon
For those that have a clue ... if they didn't put tariffs there, what do you think would happen?
Someone owns it, and someone could register companies there ... to bypass the tariffs.
So no, it's not as silly as you try to make out. It's crossing the T's and dotting the i's.
Simon, for a moment - I thought you were being serious.

Anonymous, let's say that Tesla and Hyundai built factories in a couple of years. How many years of planning went into that decision?
Let's be generous and say 3 - 4 years from conception to manufacturing. That's Trumps time in office done, unless he changes the laws , which is possible. You are also assuming that all companies will play Trumps game.
It's more likely that the rest of the world will never trust America again and take measures to ensure they are not put in the same position in the future.
