One day you'll work through the philosophical issues the rest of us tackled at 15.

Per Merriam-Webster:

Concentration camp - a camp where persons (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, or refugees) are detained or confined

It is what it is. Indefnsible political behavior and treatment of human beings, which is why Trump backed down on it so quickly.

Other industries have also expressed fear that Mr. Trump’s tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum and the retaliation from other countries will be damaging for business.

Mid Continent Nail Corporation, a Missouri-based manufacturer of nails, said last week that it would likely lay off half of its employees and that it could go out of business because the higher costs of the steel it imports from Mexico is making its products prohibitively expensive.


This is the grade of steel China was "flooding into the market". something domestic production doesn't often make and can't price match, even with a tariff. So production moves to a place without the tariff. gosh who could have seen this coming? not the people in this thread who don't know anything about grades of steel/aluminum and their applications.

"Traditional economists have forgotten how to win, I will show them the way!"

Trump's acting like a highschool kid with a brand new mustang that insists on changing 50% of it to aftermarket. He was handed a perfectly working machine, all he had to do was just drive it. Domestic manufacturing was returning big time, the DJJ soared, and unemployment sank into historic lows. Now we're rolling the dice on stuff that is guaranteed to have blowback effects, and the only credible positive course is to starve out other economies until they are ok with renegotiating entire trade deals. even believers in that model of economics realize that could take decades, by which time Trump will be out of office. so its a bad idea even to those who support it. it's like coming into a football game with a strategy that takes 3 games to implement. nonsensical.
