If Big Business and Big Government are against Tariffs then it must be a good idea.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

I would gladly pay more knowing my money was helping to pay for our infrastructure, military, and space program and helping to employ our Vets. Instead, we want to fund the communists' infrastructure, military, and space program for the privilege of saving $.10 on communist made paintbrushes.

This is pathetic. And it was our side that caused this. :(

[Maris Crane]

I didn’t read the whole thing, but this sounds GREAT.

[Mariner]

To hear these guys tell it, tariffs don’t work and never will.

Which is unmitigated BS.

[Kevmo]

Kind of a giant duhh factor to this. Just because they label themselves American doesn’t mean they’re pro-America.

[jcon40]

30 Business organizations seem proud to say they don’t want to produce anything but will broker goods to the American people for obscene profit.

[Vision]

“Well somebody has to make things so we can attend meetings on bullying others politically and social engineering America through advertising!”

I don’t get this. Before Biteme, Trump’s policies of America first was bringing business/companies/investments and jobs back to the US. There is no disputing that success. He also renegotiated the one-sided NAFTA trade deal, which DID turn out to be a big sucking sound of jobs leaving, as Perot predicted.

[Renfrew]

Throw in the towel? These guys opposed it from the very beginning.

Every time an executive can fire an American making $70K per year and hire a Chinese worker at a tenth the wage, they get to pocket the difference in their annual bonus.

The issue is not tariffs, it is about Slave Labor in Communist China.

That is what Big Business and Big Government WANTS! Graft, payoffs, Corruption and allowing China to buy the world with slave labor.

Is no one awake? Somebody turn on the lights, where we at least appear to be at home.

[Born to Conserve]

These are the middle men. The ones that will be cut out. Fools.

[Chgogal]

Exactly! It is a labor issue.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

Too many of us are willing to choose the lower price over the "Made In USA" label, even if it means choosing slave labor over our own Vets.

We're awake and we know what's happening, it's just that too many don't care.

We can only hope and pray that God is willing to give this country another chance.

[Texas Fossil]

I pray for that every day. Normally 2 times a day.

I’m thinking about adding Texas to that prayer. We need his help more than ever.

And God DID Bless Texas.

[Texas Fossil]

Slavery is hideous crime.

But it is profitable.

That is what the ChiComs exist for. Conquering the world and destroying their perceived enemies by human cruelty.

Is there a Good Communist? Even one?

[curious7]

To answer your question, yes, all the dead ones.

[dfwgator]

“The Capitalists will sell us the rope we shall hang them with.”

[Texas Fossil]

Is the death rate up in the USA?

No.

Why did we not have common flu the last 2 years.

Do you believe all the BS stats that came up in the media.

Do you think that Fauci ever came over as competent or honest.

How many times was he totally wrong about this from the beginning.

Why did the freaks try to outlaw any treatment that showed promise? BECAUSE they needed it to be an emergency in order to cripple the free world.

[Colorado Doug]

This is not news. US big business is addicted to Chinese slave labor. They never did want tariffs nor do they care about America or the average people in it.
