You cannot ignore what’s coming

Question

You cannot ignore what’s coming

America is the largest customer in the world. The largest importer of goods by a massive margin. There are entire companies based around selling us goods. A massive portion of the global economy is centralized around importing goods into the U.S.

On top of all this, the US dollar is the global currency. Any movement in our currency not only affects our economy but the economy of every single country that trades in US dollars (all of them).

If a country attempts to retaliate, they will kill their own businesses and their own economy worse than if they just paid the tariffs. It’s over for you. It’s time for the next American century.

you burgers can't last the 10 years it would take to rebuild your industry, inflation will destroy your resolve by the next election but nice thought

Reducing the value of everything by crashing the markets is deflationary. Recessions are deflationary. You don’t know what you are talking about clearly. Cute post.

I wouldn't waste the time. Americans are self-destructively moronic. Let em collapse in peace. The US needed a low intelligence culling for a long time now.

There’s 800 million middle class consumers in China, dumbass.

How are the values of goods being reduced? Most of our goods are imported which are now being tariffed--that's a price increase. Fewer goods with higher demand--price increase. America having to pay high upstart cost to build new factories and also pay higher wages than China--that's a price increase.

All inflationary. What are you, retarded? Of course you are, all you dumb maga faggots are

No one is gonna buy the overpriced goods during a recession. Those companies will lose their largest customer, the US, or reduce prices to something that creates a profit. Did you pay attention in school at all? Ever heard of supply and demand? What are they gonna do? Just stop selling their products? Charge us a price no one will pay and kill their own company? Babahahahah

kek I wanted to move there for a long time, but maybe it's good I didn't

what about supply and demand though? atm you have a significant dependence of Chinese supply, tariffs mean China will stop their supple while your demand stays the same resulting in inflation for the products currently being supplied by China (most likely at the cheapest price on the market) and even when you build your industry back you the cost of production will be much higher that will at the very least keep the inflation in the prices... tell me I'm stupid but you spend too much looking at charts and not enough in the real world maybe?

is the largest customer in the world

was

I guess the left has DEI and the right has Nepotism only answer...

There are entire companies based around selling us goods

You will never be a real Business owner. You have no workers, you have no machines, you have no intellectual propriety. You are a manager twisted by self-employment gurus and being wagie into a crude mockery of American entrepreneurship perfection.
All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. The business world openly mocks you. Your parents are disgusted you shunned your education and became a drop shipper, your “friends” laugh at your "profit margins" as fake money because you couldn't afford an actual production line.

You utterly repulse real businessmen. Hundreds of years of evolution have allowed them to sniff out wannabes incredibly efficiently. Even your best efforts to be an entrepreneur look uncanny and unnatural to an actual business owner. Your lack of knowledge of how to manage losses is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to figure out how to navigate low sales quarters, he’ll steal your clients and tell you to take the knowledge he's a harder man than you with him as you go bankrupt

You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.

Eventually, it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a gun from a back alley dealer, put it next to your skull, pull the trigger because you are too weak to endure the pain of low-profit margins, and absolutely screw that up because you were too stupid to buy chink ammo. Your friends will find you, and laugh at how much of a sad coward you are. They’ll throw you in a dumpster, and the homeless will pick you clean of anything they can sell to get some cheap bear.
This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

Fuck off chang

Yeah good luck trying to produce all that shit by yourself. We will trade with China.

We don’t have any dependence on China for anything. They have a dependence on our market. If they are not allowed to sell goods in America their economy will crash. Both will crash but China will crash harder.

Pay your tariffs or face the wall

you're bluffing with no cards cupcake
america is a hasbeen

die you fucking retard

Are you seriously fucking retarded? Nothing that you said makes any sense. China can stomach political unrest much better than America can. They're an authoritarian fucking uniparty country and have been salivating at the chance for a Chinese ascendancy. This is it. And America decided to take on every fucking country at once so America is having to act alone. What happens when no one trades with America and they all trade with each other? They each suffer a loss, sure, but we suffer than loss x 15 as we're bearing it entirely alone and we're a technology/service economy that relies on imports. You MAGA people should do the country a favor and murder suicide your MAGA friends. Total dipshit

We don’t have any dependence on China for anything

Then why do you buy 4x more from China than they buy from you.

the next election

A Russian and two vpns. At least I like Russians..

I’m so happy bros this is all I’ve wanted from an administration since 2004. They are finally doing it. We are saved. The country is fucking saved.

migatards can't do anything but lie. everything they say is dishonest

Get a job loser

and thanks to tariffs, that is changing. the euro is stronger than the dollar

They will be eating each other in a couple months, because they all lost their jobs at the fidget spinners factory. China is a nation of rice farmers.

Then there's nothing for you to be upset about.

The euro is fake money. No one cares about the euro LMAO

we won
you lost

This is exactly why we're in this mess. This behavior. You dumb maggot fucks can never admit when you're wrong, and so you just endlessly pivot. I'm actually glad to see Trump destroy this country just to watch you suffer.

I’m not wrong and neither is Trump. He is just doing what democrats have wanted to do since 1996

I live in America and am watching my country get destroyed in a historically bad unforced error by the biggest piece of shit to be in the oval office. there's nothing to be mad about?

Businesses don’t carry debt liabilities when interest rates are high and demand is low. If prices go up on the scale of these tariffs, it eviscerates demand. If consumption slows and interest rates remain high, you get a deflationary cycle as debt obligations are reduced. This reduces money supply and causes the value of the USD to go up. Basic economics.. and also why literally every recessionary cycle has been deflationary

You've yet to retort any point because you're intellectually unable and it's impossible because this strategy is fucking retarded. Also, democrats are pro-free trade so you've once again outed yourself as an idiot

He is saving the country’s people from a life of extreme wealth inequality and poverty. You think it’s bad now? Imagine what it would be like in 20 more years. This IS the pivot.

You haven’t made a single point, you’ve just been raging and calling people names because you are poor and uneducated. That’s why you have student loans and a 401k.

you are so stupid you should genuinely kill yourself. tariffs are a regressive tax as they most adversely affect the common consumer. he JUST praised the gilded age as the best time in America history because there was no income tax. literally everything is pointing to one endpoint and you maga faggots are so petty and spiteful you would never admit you're wrong. again, looking forward to seeing you suffer

kek I wanted to move there for a long time, but maybe it's good I didn't

I'm going to be honest, your countrymen needs to get its shit together ASAP or you WILL end up like them. They're just a polarized UK, in my opinion. I'm sure you will, but it's something to keep in mind, UK discourse is not good. Not stable. Demand populist progress from your leadership lest you suffer the same fate.

wow, you just outed yourself as illiterate too.

USA vs many opponent = bad for USA

USA economy not bigger than entire global economy yet America still fight all globe = bad for USA

China authoritarian and can stomach more political unrest than a country that swaps powers ever 4 year = bad for America

is that dumbed down enough for you? stupid fuck

You don't give a shit about this country or it's people.

I'm sure you will,

not so sure people don't care too much as long as they have some coke and football to look forward to, you hear a lot of complaining but that's where it ends

Low iq cannot speak without insulting people. These are the people advocating against Trump. Redneck hillbillies. No education and no literacy. They can’t even speak or debate properly. The just foam at the mouth like animals.

I saw some guy who wanted to make circuit boards in America and they wanted $500 but in China they were $50. What a rip, makes me want these western companies to fail.

Normies can't do delayed gratification and people say unions are good, what Trump is doing is like a union negotiation.

yet I didn't vote for the man that is currently destroying our economy and global hegemony, hmm curious.

The rest of the country did. Maybe this country isn’t for you.

still cannot respond to any logical points and clutches pearls instead. typical crybully maga faggot

You haven’t made any logical points.

wow, you just outed yourself as illiterate too.

USA vs many opponent = bad for USA

USA economy not bigger than entire global economy yet America still fight all globe = bad for USA

USA import economy with alienated trade partners = bad for USA
'
USA increasingly seen as irrational and unreliable, so countries willing to part with USA = bad for USA

is that dumbed down enough for you? stupid fuck

here you go again, retard. inb4 more crybaby deflection bullshit

Let me tell one thing i've thinking about.

Normally when people thinks about immigrants they consider they all will live amongst the natives but did you know that there is over 3.800 ghost cities in the US? I was wondering how the industrialization might revive those estructures by constructing it's factories around those cities. You know what I mean?

all that money is going to israel buddy

You open a post with insult, I stop reading first sentence. You are incapable of understanding, influencing, empathizing, listening, or learning. That’s why you are single, insufferable, and feel alienated by your peers.

You have no opinions or genuine thoughts of your own. You simply regurgitate.

yup, there it is. too afraid to address any logical points because he cannot. why are you so against insulting? I'm merely emulating your cult leader.

why are you so afraid of debating points? can't hack it or something? realize your argument is too stupid to defend so just entrench and deflect?

here it is without the mean words, try again :)

mfw i will ignore what's coming

Low intel spammer is boosting my thread very based, thank you for your service

still waiting for any logical retort :)

behold thread readers, the intellectual prowess of the economic right!

USA is not enemies with anyone. We are simply raising the cost of selling goods to our citizens. It’s not a big deal. It’s not a hostile action and it’s not going to do anything to your life. You won’t even feel it. Stop watching the news and take a break from the internet. Go camping somewhere there is no signal. It would be genuinely good for you as a human being. I can sense you are ill.

You must be in some crazy fucking denial to truly believe your country doesn't have enemies. Even Trump said how much the middle east hates your guts.

The Middle East wants to move in and be Hollywood actors. I’m Middle Eastern. We LOVE America. Every single Arab in the world wants to be a Cowboy. Some of them are just too rapey and dumb to allow it. You are a kike trying to spread Arab hate.

Hence the EU memeflag. Zionism is a plague upon the earth.

.....you did not respond to any point? you just made a vague "don't worry" statement and then made a personal attack of your own. hypocritical, illogical, and a poor communicator.

It’s not a hostile action

tariffs are hostile. saying your goods will cost 50% more unless you make ridiculous concession to US is hostile. undebateable, it's not a friendly act.

USA is not enemies with anyone

#1 attacking countries livelihoods and economic status just because you can will make enemies
#2 you're delusional if you think america does not have enemies. both China, and Russia would love to see the American hegemony get taken down a peg so they can do what they will as far as taiwan and former USSR states

it’s not going to do anything to your life

my 401K is down 15% YTD thanks to Trump, so it currently is and will continue to do so as tariffs are inflationary.
if you're going to respond with empty platitudes again, don't bother

The only one it's over for is you mutt.

my 401K is down 15% YTD

This is the only post you needed to make. I hope it goes down another 15% and so do you. I’m sorry you are too dumb to make your own investments so you handed your money over to a kike scam.

Ok lol. Just buy everything from China then.

americans still don't understand who pays the tariff

dang, I guess I should leave an 10% match, aka free money, on the table because you think a 401k is a kike scam! tell me you're unemployed without telling me.

behold everyone, the intellectual prowess of the economic right. nope, your eyes do not deceive you. you see an empty cavity where a brain should be.

why do you even speak if you're afraid to engage with any pushback? what's the point?

Is this entire stream of butthurt all because you don't have a good job? I'm sorry your autism shows through too much in interviews. Over half of Americans have a 401k, it's a pretty normal thing for a functioning adult who can dress properly and maintain themselves hygienically

And no, your future 20 an hour factory job isn't gonna massively improve your life when everything is 50% more expensive

A massive portion of the global economy is centralized around importing goods into the U.S.

Not for much longer.

On top of all this, the US dollar is the global currency.

Nit for much longer.

tariffs are hostile. saying your goods will cost 50% more unless you make ridiculous concession to US is hostile. undebateable, it's not a friendly act.

I agree. The world has done this to us for decades. Now we slap tariffs on everyone until they make a friendly deal. We ban trade with China as it's never been honest.

Everyone already does. What the fuck does the US even export? Software made by Indians?

Because feeling superior is worth untold amounts of economic hardship, right? So you can post about it on a website notorious for violent incels in the middle of the day? While you can't afford groceries? Loser

Trump's first wave of tariffs were based upon trade deficit, not existing tariffs. any existing tariffs were small, less than several points and concentrated on specific industry. which is sound policy, we should have probably done that. I think having some protectionist tariffs to boost specific domestic industries can be smart, but we didn't do that.

Chinks on suicide watch, remove the nets.

Fact is millions of companies nintendo US are based on importing cheap goods from China. Those companies will fail as well. Nose in spite of yoru face.

you burgers can't last the 10 years it would take to rebuild your industry

We still have the second largest manufacturing base in the world, and it's almost 3x the third place country Japan. You want to know who this is actually true for? Your country, at #11, one spot above Indonesia.

We're not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with us.

401k is a kike scam!

It is though. You're relinquishing control of your money with no guarantee whatsoever you'll ever see any of it ever again. It doesn't matter what sort of cope you come up with, it was stupid to do that and now you're paying for that stupidity, lashing out at strangers over it.

describes the exact reasons why the entire system was set up to our advantage to justify why annihilating it was a good idea

completely unaware that countries have literally zero choice but to retaliate because Trump isn't actually negotiating for anything that makes sense

Your parents voted for this and the end of pensions. And now you're carrying the torch. Just cus mommy and daddy have shit set up for you doesn't mean it's the same for everyone

Chang is right tho. The US is not the only consumer market in the world. The tariffs will hurt everyone but they will hurt the US the most. Arrogance is destroying them

Le britches telling us anything is peek fuckong hilarious

Meanwhile enjoy your "empire"

I’m at work right now retard. I work full-time with benefits. I declined the 401k because I can do better than that on my own. It’s a fucking scam for lazy retards.

US will experience capital flight, the world economy will dedollarize, and all of our trading partners will route around us to avoid having to deal with our schizophrenic trade policies.

Some of you are on here looking at charts while your parents grocery shop for you, some of us actually have to deal with rising costs lol. Americans punished Brandon for the economic state, you think they won't do the same to Trump?

You can match your contributions? Let's be real, you're working at some low skill shithole where they barely match you lol

Why would I contribute to an account that cannot keep pace with inflation? It’s like arguing with a robot. Again, you have no genuine thoughts or opinions, you simply regurgitate programming. You don’t even know what a 401k is, you just know what you are “supposed to do” is put your money in it. You just do what you are told. You are a perfect employee and worker and you won’t be harmed by tariff little guy!

Tesla and iphone. Both utterly shit products.

This is hilarious. You're saying a 401k on average keeps up with inflation less than even a 6% high yield savings account (which you don't have)? Keep coping bro, some day you won't have to be an assistant manager at AppleBee's. Obviously I would prefer a pension but those days are done

401ks are a Ponzi scheme scam that are only perpetuated by idiots like you.

This guy is gonna blow his brains out when they delete his 401k because “orange man bad” LMFAO

they will kill their own businesses and their own economy worse than if they just paid the tariffs

btw he just reduced all tariffs to 10% except china kek

If you did your own investments, you could.. just sell your assets and buy back in when it’s cheaper, like I did. You stupid fuck LMFAO

Your savings account is losing value by the second dude lol. You have to be young if you think you're going to get returns on a saving account

What are you talking about bro? I’m not keeping my money in a saving account except for emergencies. Why are you bringing up savings accounts LOL? I trade my own stocks and crypto for myself idiot.

NEVER DO A 401k it’s a Ponzi scheme to give your money to boomers and kikes. If you aren’t educated in investing, DO NOT INVEST. If you want to invest, DO IT YOURSELF.

NEVER DO A 401k KILL THE BOOMERS AND KIKES

WANT TO INVEST? EDUCATE YOURSELF AND INVEST. NO NEED FOR 401K SCAM.

Ah here we go, the Robinhood trader who works a low skill low wage job lol. Most people have multiple areas of investment

either you're LARPing and you've outed yourself, or you are truly stupid. if I put in 12%, and my company matches 10% then I have automatically earned a 83.3% gain on my investment from the company matching my own investment, not to mention actual growth from whatever it is invested in. you are dumber than I thought.

why are you commenting on global economic affairs when cannot wrap your head around your own affairs?

Typical fagget British talking shit that's all you lowlives know how to do

Talk shit and be drunk losers

Fk off nasty obese bitch

you know you can manually invest your 401k....right....it's just smarter to put it all in indices because hardly anyone can beat that return

how much is your portfolio down? lol this is funny

But you are down 15% and I’m not. So who is outing who? Whose intelligence is really in question here? LMAO

And they don't consume as much as the US. Despite making up 4% of the world's population, Americans make up 25% of its consumers. They are literal and figurative whales. Any business that doesn't sell to Americans either because they can't or because they choose not to will lose its market share to another business that does sell.

it's hard to be down anything when you have no assets, isn't it? lol. I mean, you have declined to respond in any educated way to a coherent argument on the current trade war and you've really started flying off the rails once you got cooked on the 401ks. Seems a nerve has been truck, stopping burning your wendy's paycheck in shitcoins and you'll stop being as mad about 401ks, I bet.

What do you think a 401k is? It's just a tax advantaged investment account.

I’m down like 5-7% but I’ve increased my holding significantly. I had a lot of cash on hand and dumped that in over the course of the past few days.

I have most of my networth in my investments

It’s a scam you are supposed to die from your ozempic and McDonald’s cocktail before you cash it out

Everyone defending 401ks is just an example of sunk cost fallacy.
