Is that now everyone on Tigernet thinks they’re an economist. It’s kinda like how during Covid Tigernet became the place to go for expert opinions on medicine and epidemiology.

Word. I’m definitely not an expert. I’ve been seeing videos of politicians in the 90’s talking about our trade deficits and tariffs by China. Democrats were for it, Nancy Pelosi was one of them.
I know that was 30 years ago so I understand things may have changed. As you see it, is there a benefit to putting higher tariffs on China?
I disagree with much of the tariff bs especially on the smaller countries. I don’t understand a lot of it though.

So Nancy Pelosi making a speech 30 years ago is enough to convince you that tariffs are a good idea? Please make that make sense. This makes it more or less conservative as economic policy?

I don’t know. I pretty much covered the fact that I don’t know much about global economics. I was asking a question. Not directed at you but am more than happy to hear your answer if you are knowledgeable on global economics.

I thoroughly enjoyed the COVID years, reading about immunology from people who couldn’t tell me what an interleukin is.

If u think Tigernet became the place to go for expert opinions on medicine and epidemiology, you might wanna read some Darwin.

But I can read the reports and analyses from experts and understand them. And then be amazed at all those who support tariffs just because, well, Trump, will also refuse to read those reports.
