Educate yourself on the topic, and no need for name calling. All countries somewhat employ them to protect certain industries, but when you use them in blanket effect, which is what the US is doing, well,they become ineffective. Unfortunately the US is the Worlds Reserve Currency, it has it's upside, but it is also Artificially Strong, which brings some downside.

i suspect im far more educated formally on topic
than you ever will be? why is every other country in
world, allowed tariffs . . . but not the u.s. ? bollox

[jackspratt]

Bollox indeed.

The US has plenty of "tariffs", starting at 6.8% on Live Asses (how appropriate) https://hts.usitc.gov/view/Chapter%201? ... 9HTSARev10

and finishing at 2.5% with Monopods, bipods, tripods and similar articles of aluminum https://hts.usitc.gov/view/Chapter%2096 ... 9HTSARev10

And everything in between.

Look it up if you like.

Most of the threads on the Map are American focused threads. The poster who claims he was slandered and the controversial Donald Trump can perhaps take the credit or flak for that.

[mech_401]

and the EU is not just one massive tariff consortium? im afraid you brits will soon find
this all out. duh jackspratt all countries have tariffs

[GT93]

Jack a Brit?

He's a sandgroper.

[mech_401]

in that case my apologies. it was not my intent
to offend in such a grievous, insensitive way

Yes, all countries do.

But you seem to be under the illusion that the US doesn't - at least not until the recent punitive tariffs were applied to Chinese goods.

Your geography ain't great either.

[mech_401]

im under no such assumption. my geography's
fine. the tariff debacle with EU has been going on
for 15 years. here's a tip : stop being an as*
the as* from down under apparently dumbas*

Because, dummy, the tariffs are going to be ineffective, if Chinas' currency keeps falling in response. It's just a vicious cycle, because as Chinas' currency falls, capital will flow out, and most of it will head to the US for safety, making the US dollar even stronger, and further offsetting the tariffs. It's a race to the bottom.

This stuff is Econ 101.

[GT93]

Add in the religious like intolerance of Lone Star's posts and we're further into, putting it kindly, murky waters.

[mech_401]

dudley do-right to north. if tariffs are so ineffective
why are all the other countries using them? I think
econ 101 was supply/ demand. keynesian theory?

[GT93]

Let's hope then that he's also currently compensating the scores of women he has previously sexually assaulted and perhaps raped.

Wow - 4 edits to make yourself look sillier each time.

ps Australia is a long way from the UK (geographically speaking).

[mech_401]

more libelous print from gt93 . in the absense
of any reasonable argument, let's just " make stuff up " and slag people off. whooppee no rules

Jesus man, they are not placing tariffs on everything they import, from a particular country.

Canada places some tariffs on it’s dairy products. Now while this does keep Dairy farms afloat, Canadians pay a much higher price for these products, and many are not happy about it.

[GT93]

Trump's sexual history, his taped admissions of grabbing women without consent and the numerous allegations made in public against him are fair game.
