Tarrifs good cuz fuck china.

American industry has been pivoting away from China for over a decade, because their wages are outpacing India and Indonesia.

Meanwhile, Chinese exports are flooding into Latin America, rapidly improving the economic condition of big countries like Mexico and Brazil.

But sure. Let's see how this pans out.

China's wages? You realise half of the numbers the ccp gives simply doesn't match reality?

I mean sure, but it's not just the exports but China's disguised loans. There's a lot of reaons behind this.

at the end of the day, if the a country want to have products made with slave labor or genocide, they're going to. I have morals.
