They will cause short term pain, but bringing industry back is necessary and everyone knows it. If Obama did it, they'd all be cheering.

Guaranteed they're going to be making money off of this via tax breaks and other incentives. Apple is also flush with money so its time for them to spend it while there's a recession.

>>25503182 Apple is one of the richest company on earth, they can afford that but the problem with tariffs is they lead to more losses than gains. Spending $500 billion for 20k of employment might sound impressive to an idiot but the economics aren't great. American industry is probably going to become globally uncompetitive and depend on protected domestic markets more. >>25503199 >They will cause short term pain, but bringing industry back is necessary and everyone knows it. That isn't what happened historically. America increased tariffs to counter the great depression and it didn't work... the government forced industrial investment during WWII is what kicked started things. Smart industrial policy will always win against inflating the costs of imports.

>>25503344 The world was a different place then. The industry that was here was previously incentivized to leave, and now they are being incentivized to return. That problem didn't exist 100 years ago. Not to mention we weren't being tariffed like we are now without reciprocity. The average tariff or the US in 2010 was 1.3% which is totally lopsided compared to the tariffs levied on us.

Its kind interesting that americans complain that their country is becoming like brazil, and take the exact same economic measures we take in brazil. I mean, it do actually work, but why are they doing this? Shouldnt they die on the hill of open markets or something?

>>25503390 I said American industry will never be cost competitive globally. The government subsidizing industry and exports like China could "work" but making imports into America more expensive won't make Africans buy more F-150's. Opening global trade was also a result of WWII and Bretton Woods FYI

>>25503431 The goal is to make industry come home, not to make Africans buy more F-150s. When we speak about reciprocal tariffs, you don't see too many people driving African made cars in the USA either.

>>25503488 Do you know what it is knock down production? You wont produce shit, just assembly pre-made modules on local shacks and sell it with an american label, just like it happens on brazil.

>>25503611 TSMC is opening fab facilities in the USA. Apple already does knock down production in the USA, they announced that like 5 or more years ago. It may look like that in the beginning, but the die was already cast even before Trump. Biden was trying to do the same, but of coure its slow.

>>25503488 >The goal is to make industry come home, not to make Africans buy more F-150s. Are you sure? Trump is constantly whining about foreigners not buying America goods and says he wants to run trade surpluses with foreign countries, just importing less doesn't do that obviously. You're probably confusing Drumpf for some cuck social democratic "inclusive growth" visionary, Trump wants growth to be paid for by foreigners and have it trickle down to the American population. It's Reaganomics 2.0 and what happens when you cut finance lose to reorganize things isn't reindustrialization in the sense you think >>25503640 >It may look like that in the beginning, but the die was already cast even before Trump. Biden was trying to do the same, but of coure its slow. Biden wasn't putting up blanket tariffs on raw materials required by American industries as inputs.
