    Yes, I actually know a lot about history, it was part of my double major with Philosophy being the other. I also know a lot about the tariffs as well. See above. Do you have something to counter, contribute or question?

    Or are you just trying to be cute and it backfired?

    Ok I'm going to stop you right there - why is there a relationship between the supply chain inflation from 21-23 and the new tariffs of 2025?

    Aside from not having a time machine - these two things aren't linked to each other.

    You're aware that tariffs are inflationary not deflationary, right? It makes things cost more. That's the whole point

    But anyway if you're asking me whether I'd like to continue along the current trajectory of 2.5 % inflation and low unemployment vs higher inflation plus potentially higher unemployment due to tariff related price shocks - i would prefer the current one.

    And finally - deflation is a really bad idea so that's why nobody does it - if you're having deflation, you're in a depression.

    I’m not sure what you’re saying here.. Section 301 was in 2017.. not 2021-23. Supply’s chain and tariffs are directly related.. lol…It doesn’t matter anyways.

    I am specifically saying there are ways to recoup tariff costs for manufacturers in the USA if they are exporting, or someone else is exporting similar product defined to the HS code. Feel free to look into it since you seem to know nothing about it.

    There is nothing long term inflationary or deflationary about tariffs if the purpose is to create jobs by bringing manufacturing back to America. The idea is to grow the economy and create more jobs. It’s a pretty simple concept and it would be un-American to be against it. Is there potential immediate financial impact? Sure, what doesn’t have one? If all you care about is immediate impacts, I can’t even imagine how your finances look.

    The impact to China and others is worse. I know this with 10+ years of first hand experience with it. The stuff you read in the news is far from accurate and that’s part of the problem.

    I’m sure most economists haven’t even thought about buying stuff made in America as part of their “forecast” which usually has an agenda depending on what news you are getting the info from.

    And finally - If you proceeded to read the rest of my post before interrupting it, you would already have understood that. I don’t expect the types that don’t know anything other than to regurgitate political agendas in the news, to understand.

    Anyways, good day.

    Quick question.

    For every one steel mill job how many jobs exist in US manufacturing that utilize steel as one of their items for bill of materials in their manufacturing process?

    I don't. Money shapes this world. The economy is global. Sure we have enemies but we all want our countries to do well economically.

    There is no need to protect our natural resources anymore. I love America but I'm not hooked on it remaining "America". The world is getting smaller

    I know he seems kind of ... Yeah - Im done for now.

    I don't know if this guy's one but the whole thing about the MAGA troll thing is hat they are starved for attention and oxygen, it's never enough for them to get their way, they are sore, angry winners from Trump & Elon all the way down to the lowliest low men here.

    They can't just be rich & powerful, they need you to like them and want to force you to do it any way they can.

    You don't need too though.

    You don't have to like them - or pay any attention at all

    Just as long as you don't forget Nazis were bad - that's non negotiable

    Trump disavowed David Duke and you know who.....I kind of believe him.

    I do not think he is a Nazi but I do think he is has some potential as an anarchist and someone who revels in chaos.

    He reminds me of Two Face Harvey from Gotham City but someone who does not need the Coin flip.

    This needed to be done at some point. All those tweets celebrating a far right populist are wrong.

    Congratulations to the victory though.

    Trump reminds me of a less successful Napoleon (just taller).

    The hope is that the Non Politician and the Old Man in him actually thwarts the plans of the far rights powers in his Party.

    I could be using my middle finger to point at a map to give someone directions. However I have the awareness to not use my middle finger. How do you do the Nazi salute two times in a row, and not have the awareness to know that you are doing a Nazi salute?

    And why are you just assuming that a guy who openly online is a white supremacist doesn't mean to do white supremacist things? Why would you even bother to play clean up for him? What has Elon done to earn your charitability to him?
