@aronro@SeanTrende@baseballcrank When you look at that globally though and see child labor, abhorrent working conditions, modern slavery, etc; that is where the reality breaks down the theoretical. Do you not believe that supporting the exploitation of these workers for cheaper goods is predatory?
@aronro@SeanTrende@baseballcrank Less about the states and more about the polarization of American society by the political parties and media companies that profit off of the constant division. But that is a different topic for another day 😂
@aronro@SeanTrende@baseballcrank My post originally was not to defend all tariffs or even to condemn all trade deficits. I think it would be expected that the US would run some level of deficit at all times as a consumer economy. I do believe there is positive significant to the moderation of that trend though
@aronro@SeanTrende@baseballcrank Because with the exception of one notable war, our states are aligned behind the preservation of our nation and share in the success of the country as a whole. As opposed to say China who has a stated goal of displacing the U.S. as the world’s top economy. (+federal wage laws)
@JimJatras@RonPaul Will never defend the hitting of the school. That was sloppy intel relying on AI to do the target identification. Truly disgusting. Iran would flatten Israel today if they could though. Let’s not pretend that has not been their objective from the outset.
@SeanTrende@baseballcrank This is, generally speaking, a very stupid reply. Trade deficits signal the flow of goods in and out and have far reaching economic impacts on currency and investments.
@martinandris@ABC My point is that even if you are a staunch liberal and do not want to back a ‘conservative’, at least back a competent liberal candidate instead. How many times must she fail to lose the vote? Insanity.
@FoxNews That is not peaceful protests or protected speech. Start arresting. Once they push the barricade aggressively toward an officer, they should catch a charge.
@CBSSunday@CBSNews Her husbands legacy will be that of a Weekend at Bernie’s puppet who was scammed onto America by a duplicitous media that was willing to hide him away and cover for him in order to defeat Trump. He was corrupt. His family was corrupt. He was a top 5 worst President ever.
@CNNSOTU@DanaBashCNN Perhaps they should investigate who is setting up the protest stations to hand out signs, riot gear, and food to people for these ‘spontaneous’ protests. You know of he was really concerned and not just playing politics.
@gatewaypundit “Power to the People” an event set to encourage handing power over to a party that is determined to consolidate power within the government. Can’t make this level of stupid up.
@USATODAY If his teammates are more concerned about him introducing the President than how accurately he can throw a corner route, then it is no wonder the Giants have struggled lately.
@jabeale And what was outrageous? The fact he wasn’t treated as above the law because he is a politician? That is exactly the attitude with which most congressmen act (in both parties). Shocker that a front line person decided to ignore your self appointed privilege and spray you.
@GOP You can survive high gas prices if you have a total victory in Iran. You cannot survive high gas prices and a return to the status quo in Iran. It is time to make the hard decisions required to win this conflict once and for all.
@NRO America no longer has the will to fight and win wars. Our unwillingness to strike power plants for example means we are not willing to do what is required to win a war. No one wants to put hardship on innocent people, but wars often require that to bring them to conclusion.
