What a shithole the US has become, all because of the conservatives.

I know you said “big if true” but lets be honest here this idiocracy is to be expected by the current US administration. The “big if true” implies this will be a deal breaker but all the other idiots who voted for this or did not vote at all won’t have this hit their radar if by this point nothing else has.
Yeah, the only people winning this are the top 1%. The average Joe American will be suffering a lot. Tbh might do some good as it will wake alot of them up to their decisions regarding voting and hopefully those that have not been paying attention be cause they are too comfortable in their lives.
Lets work through this logic shall we. Lets say those companies setup production in the US, in the scenario where all required inputs are US based and produced then the only other determining factor for price increases would be wages. Do you think the end price would be cheaper or more expensive then what China can produce? In order to compete with China you have to have their level of wages in an economy that supports that low level of cost of living. Now lets see how scenario two plays out where at least some of the inputs still have to be imported, same result as before but just more costs to add onto the end product passed to the consumer.
This is a rather simplified outlook but I am curious if you can see what the dilemma would be those scenarios particularly for the US.
Authoritarianism in full display. No due process.
Coming soon to a signal chat room near you.
Even when statistical data supports these huge sweeping statements there will always be outliers but they will be few.
Given Leon’s blatant support of the Nazi’s. Then I believe the saying goes “If the shoe fits”.
The truth is too hard for them you see. In this day and age you have to work to verify sources, distinguish opinion pieces to factual ones. It’s easier for them to swallow the reality they are fed that better aligns with their shitty views then do that all that work to you know live in reality.
Those that still use X is a nazi in my book.
The US imports more food then exports, in 2023 imports exceeded exports by $21 billion.
Edit: I like your optimistic view though. Realistically though you guys are going to go through a very rough time. This is not going to be as simple as well we just won't send it overseas, because you guys rely a lot on imports with Mexico, Canada and China being your top importers of various foods and agricultural products.
You are correct because them saying they wont vote for Trump is because they are selfish and have only come to that conclusion because they have been personally affected. What they do not address in their “enlightenment” is what led them to vote for Trump in the first place and what they will do going forward to ensure they have learnt from this mistake.
I won’t argue with that, this has happened not only because of those that did vote but also the non-voters. Where I am from we have mandatory voting and although its not a guarantee which way it will go I think we are better prepared to handle the idiocracy.
Edit: Cross your fingers and toes for us though.
