If the unemployment rate is so phony then why hasn't he mentioned the real rate since he took office? LMAO. I don't hear nothing now. By his calculations it should still be 39%-40%

I don't care about petty media bullshit disconnected with reality. All I care about is real results on the ground. And I got them right after the elections. Does that makes you mad?
replied 2122d
Yep real results like Harley Davidson leaving America and the farmers getting reamed because of Tariffs. You will be paying more for goods, but too stupid to realize it.

And I don't mind to pay the fair price of things knowing it has not been manufactured by expoloited kids. Have you no shame?

Well you are fortunate to have enough cash on hand to buy American made products. But it doesn't explain away the fact that Wallmart and Big Lots do so well.

I don't know how Wallmart is pulling their strings but reality is, almost everyone is doing quite well right now.

Its simple. People buy cheap. It's the way of life for the middle class. America will never compete with China paying workers 1.25 an HR. Tariffs are a dumb move.

It's impossible to sell anything other than raw material to China.

Even Roger Ver slams Trump for those tariffs. And for the most part I disagree with a lot of Roger Ver's political views.

Roger believe in free trade and so do I. But reality is China does not engage in free trade in any ways. That's how they became the number one manufacturing power in the world.

Yes and Iphones also got a free pass too. Because that's the only way, by getting a free pass to bypass the policies which are granted by the chinese governement. Now what dummy?

Since we are both on memo, I suppose we agree that the USD should not be global reserve currency. IF Donald Trump audits the fed, adopts crypto, and/or the gold standard, I will MAGA.
replied 2122d
I'm considering this as well. I don't care about the gold standard though.

If Donald Trump allows paying taxes in Bitcoin Cash, trust me, I will never wear a non-red cap.
replied 2122d
Although I think Trump would be in favor of crypto, I doubt he will make any decisions on crypto in the two years he has left. He is too busy tweeting stupid shit on twitter.

It is surprising weird to think about this...

As a reserve currency, the USD needs to run a deficit. "The US can eliminate its trade deficit or run the world’s dominant currency—but not both."

The US can definitely change how their silly monetary system works in the first place. But for that you need to make the Federal Reserve FEDERAL instead of private.

If China does not fold to tariff threats, US will experience inflation. Interest rates will rise, and emerging markets will crash. https://goo.gl/LKvFdX

Why would the US experience inflation because of that?

replied 2122d
Because prices of goods will rise. Even though you personally might face more economic opportunities (so maybe inflation won't bother you), the cost of goods will definitely climb.

Who wrote that silly wikipedia article? Inflation is the increase of the money supply. Rise of prices is a symptom of it.
replied 2122d
Inflation describes a phenomenon. Increasing the money supply is a monetary policy that causes inflation. https://www.econlib.org/library/Enc/Inflation.html

Your not making any point by doing so. Their importation policies are very strict and clear.

Congrats for pointing out the very few products that got a free pass from their importation politics.

Looks like Harley Davidson was worth sacrifycing VS all the other manufacturers that are booming right now.
