Zorodius posted:come on, you guys, just vote for him. What's the worst that could happen? Even assuming he does nothing wrong during his term as presidency, it might result in economic repercussions similar to brexit in just international diplomatic and financial relations feeling our government is not sane, so we could stand to immediately lose a ton of cash out of pocket. It'd also render our entire nuclear program completely pointless and threaten nuclear stability in the world -- even if he does nothing to advocate for the construction of nukes by other countries like he's said. The strategy of reducing proliferation and slowly disarming has been working pretty well to reduce the threat of nuclear terror. A key point of that is our nuclear doctrine: We have technology and policy in place that makes it practically impossible to launch a nuke by accident, and Russia has been fully informed on how it works. The counterpoint is true: Even in extremely difficult situations, we can still launch a nuke if authorized in very short order. Trump's own supporters have said, "It doesn't matter if he's hot-headed and and flies off the handle and tries to nuke some country, the Joint Chiefs will just block the decision." Even if he was sane, the fact that so many people involved in the nuclear program believe he is not undermines our capability for nuclear response, which means no more stability in our nuclear system. Countries have to worry about if our country does launch a nuke just on the whims of a crazy man or countries like Russia might take advantage and push treaties or behave in a way they wouldn't do so if they felt our nuclear arsenal was actually capable of doing anything. It also just threatens the way our country functions in the future. The fact that he attacked the foundational principle of peaceful transfer of power is insane. There really seems to be some people that are happy about the idea of injecting instability into our government, which is weird. Like, people who love Trump because he's crazy and are like "omfg, wouldn't it be loving amazing to have an mentally unsound person as president?? loving lol". We should be super happy about our tradition of stability and peace in elections and how little election fraud we have. Like those should be traditions you respect and protect. I mean, all these people wishing for instability, I wish they could see life for a week in an unstable country just to get some perspective or something. The fact that anybody cares so little about the rights and lives of women as to value "LOL OMG PRESIDENT TRUMP LOL xD'" over the federal legalization of abortion is completely crazy to me, like. People who are pro-life, I get at least, but people who are just doing it for laughs and otherwise think abortion is fine? They're loving psychopaths. |

Like what the gently caress is this poo poo. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/723904/Donald-Trump-wants-import-levy Does he have any idea what that would do for consumer prices?? Imports would drop drastically as companies have to balance their books, so supply goes down. Each dollar of goods imported gets marked up to cover these tariffs, so basically he's just adding another tax to the poor. He already proved he has no understanding of global macroeconomics at all. Like, we should desire to maximize our imports and minimize our exports; our exports are what we pay to get imports. The more imports, the better our quality of life. He keeps saying he's going to maximize exports and minimize imports; that effectively means the country will be paying many times more for a lot less in goods, which results in a quality of life reduction as prices on everything rise. But a loving import tariff of 35 cents to the dollar? I hope people enjoy paying 20 bucks for a pound of coffee... |

Actually, exporting means other people give money to the US, but importing means the US gives away all its money. So this plan is smart and good. now, you might think, "35% is a lot." But probably he thought, "How much should I say... 3500%? No, that would be too much." and he was right. Right again, Donald Trump! -- Wow!! Great! |

Vladimir Posner said that even Russia doesn't want Trump to be president, because who in their right mind would want someone like that in charge of a major power. He also theorized that the only reason that Putin could possibly want Trump to be president would because it would be easier to bully Trump than Clinton.

No. Why would you care about the money? What we want is the goods, not cash. What good is exporters having some cash to your average consumer, especially if supply and demand means everything is more expensive and there's nothing to buy anyway? All that cash goes far less distance if you've traded all your goods away for it and aren't importing jack poo poo. That import tariff is bad. A slap in the face to anybody who lives here. He's effectively proposing raising the prices on everything more than 35%, including to folks below the poverty line. |

Lol, what's the end game with that kind of idiotic thinking? Ban companies that ship jobs overseas? Congrats, you gently caress our quality of life even harder. Now we have even fewer products! Let's raise their import taxes to keep everything made somewhere else out of the hands of average citizens! Yay, people are poorer! Let's say some company agrees to get blackmailed to do business here, so your lovely factory job came back to the country after being lost. But your minimum wage is six times what they were paying all their workers at the factory, not to mention well below the poverty line (don't see any plan to raise federal minimum wage under Trump). So, what, every phone or whatever you're making costs 6 times as much just on the labor? Not to mention China's our primary source of rare earth metals. Our mining operation is about 4100 tons a year, China mines 105,000 tons. So every ton of nickel or zinc we bring in, they're paying a 35% surcharge to the government for. So yeah, your 700 dollar iPhone becomes 10,000, 9,000 dollars. Not accounting for problems with the valuation of the currency since going completely bonkers. Here's Milton Friedman explaining basic macroeconomics, and why the political drive to 'balance' exports with imports or 'double exports' is complete nonsense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXkX4POxA0g |
