Any trade agreement with a major partner that lowers tariffs will benefit the USA. I don’t think this will be especially significant compared to China and the Pacific Rim nations, but it should still be a benefit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real timschochet 6,543 Posted May 8 It’s just amazing to consider how much more prosperous we would be right now if Trump hadn’t killed the Trans Pacific Partnership during his first term. I doubt whatever deals we get trying to extricate ourselves from this current disaster will be anywhere close to the benefits we would have received from that one. The TPP literally took decades to negotiate, it would have forced China to make all the concessions we desire simply in order to compete. Trump destroyed it with the stroke of a pen. So stupid.

From what I've read it's not a deal it's just a framework which includes the 10% tariff. We'll wait and see but I'm not optimistic for anything that comes out of that idiots mouth.

I'll give him props if this is something that will benefit the United States, which is something MAGAturds have been incapable of doing regarding the accomplishments of anyone to the left of themselves. Biden's infrastructure plan, for example, is great, all nitpicking aside. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What benefits U.S. consumers' pocketbooks is making the cars cheaper elsewhere and not having tariffs. As it is, the consumers get fukked either way. These tariffs were poorly thought through. We can't just snap our fingers and make doll factories and auto plans magically appear. This would take years, and we might not even have the labor to fill the jobs. Tariffs only deepened the Great Depression in the 1930s. Tariffs with Nazi Germany only worsened their economy.
