I think iirc from his campaign trying to force american companies to not outsource to Mexico. I forget in all honesty. Idk do tarrifs affect products coming from Mexico if it's an american company?

Yeah


Then i want to say that is why he's doing it. He talked about trying to deter american compainies from outsourcing during his campaign think he said give them incentive to stay in country as well so well see if he even bothers with that end of it. Probably what he considers tax breaks for the rich to be for.

Well that's fucking dumb

If companies stopped outsourcing and manufactured everything in America the consequences would be drastic

You're going from paying people peanuts to paying an overpaid unionized worker $60 an hour with gold plated unionized benefits and protections who works at 1/20th of the rate

Imagine what doing this over a short time period on a mass scale would do

That's why you put the stuff in states with weak union stuff so you can pay your workers like 9-12 dollars/hour.

That's still enough of an issue

There's also other factors to take into consideration here. Want to border yourself off and ignore the global economy, take a look at North Korea. That's what happens basically.

Hey im just saying what i believe is his reason. Im not some armchair economist who thinks i know what is good for the economy so I leave that out. I coulda been though i aced economy class in 8th grade but that was a long time ago. Ive likely forgot more than I remember.
