it’s like you believe you can tariff them expecting they won’t do the same. Why do you believe the rest of the world is not going to retaliate and why do you believe America can prosper without the rest of the world?

What’s the point of having a military alliance with countries you puts tariffs on? That’s unfriendly to say the least.

    “Chance and circumstances” is either doubling down on the eugenics theme, or you’re just opposed to increased investments in education and training.

        No, not time. Investments in public education and technology. We’d already have a crop of grads ready to go, if we’d have been training for as long as Congress has been trying to import the labor instead.

            They’re not bringing them in to train US workers. They’re bringing them in to work.

            You don’t have to start training them to manufacture chips in kindergarten. And in the time they’ve spent lobbying for importing the workers, we’d have had years to train up our own. Now that would make the chips more expensive to properly pay US workers to do it, for sure, and cut into profits. Which is really why this is about.
