this is the cartoonist btw

>give free things to minorities and women

how's that my interests

>implying the American industry didn't lose tons of jobs to third world countries because those countries don't have a ton of regulations

Move to China and see how awesome it is, retard

Holy shit, you're retarded and should learn how to read.

I'm saying the comic is wrong, because the American industry did indeed die and mostly moved overseas. It's not corporate whining.

Industry died because we got rid of protectionism

When we first built this country tariffs were 40% to ensure we had a trade balance

now we have a trade deficit because of idiots like you who think it has anything to do with "regulation." Guess what, you can never have less regulation than China they are willing to make their products out of lead and serve you human waste products.

Le bump

Dis gonna b good

But industry DID die in America.

We're all service now.

oh and they use slave like labor

have fun competing with slaves

also

>regulations are bad goy trust us

This

> the free markets regulate themselves

Top chuckle

>give blacks an entire dollar

and here lies the saddest joke of all, unlike modern wage slaves negroids had all their basic needs paid for! Housing, food, water etc all paid for by the plantation owner. All they had to do was go out and grab some cotton or whatnot. A modern slave has to slave away for everything! Good luck getting someone to give you free housing, food, water etc!

I wonder who could be behind removing health and safety regulations.....

>that picture
>an argument
>smugmolyneux.png

Nice b8 m8

Except regulations are used by both kikes and people who think they are doing good with them.

Look at the American Medical Association, they have a strangle hold over the medical industry and are the cause of high pricing in health care.

Doctors and physicians have a hard time getting licenses and setting up businesses because of the regulations intended to "help" us. There are still shitty doctors and there always will be but by giving people more options people will have a better quality of care and be able to afford them.

"not an argument" is not an argument

>Except regulations are used by both kikes

For competitive regulation not health and safety regulation

Are you too dumb to separate the two?

>health and safety regulation

Stops China from serving you lead and human feces

>competition regulation

exists to stop anyone from competing with the establishment

It's two completely different things.

>vid
theres no hope for change, is there

Seriously, does anyone with a US flag work in a factory? Not a warehouse, not a repair shop, but an actual factory where thousands of cheap consumer goods are created every day?

I used to work at one, a food packing plant (hey, making thousands of gallons of mayonnaise and filling squeeze bottles with it is still manufacturing, sort of). It shut down and moved to Mexico in 1998, and the factory is just a big storehouse now.

Even the local poultry processing plant moved all their operations out of town. Are there any actual factories still operating in the USA?

why would they use expensive white labor when they can use cheap spic/chink labor?

pu

Pulp and paper are still strong industries within the US.

Make america great again.

Oh look, another revisionist history cartoon.

>"not an argument" is not an argument
Nor is it meant to be.
In these situations, you are the one making the claim, that ”[thing] is bad". Therefore the burden of proof is on you.
If you can provide no arguments to support your claim, then I don't need to argue. All I have to say is "you haven't given any arguments to prove your claim", and refute everything you claim, unless you provide arguments.

I work in a paper mill.

If they would have to pay import tariff of any signifigance then they would use expensive white labor.

Well certain laws and regulations do in fact harm economy.

Germany has a very strict job protection and it only leads from one problem into another.

Since companies weren't able to just fire people when they didn't need them companies were much more reluctant to hire someone in the first place. A side effect was that they started leasing workers through proxy companies, that would hire them for a smaller wage and keep the difference in pay.

Now people work in the same place, but just with lower pay.

So governments passed a law that said after 6 months they need the leasing company needs to hire the person.

Then leasing companies just switched the worker after 6 months.

Now government reduced that timeframe to 3 months.

But leasing companies still keep doing the same, just now they don't even care to educate the workers properly for a particular job.

And no party dares to just remove job protection again, which was the original cause for all of this bullshit.

"Jews are subversive" is an a priori truth at this point

That's what trump is rambling about mate

>only leads from one problem into another.
>huge trade surplus
>huge Manufacturing output

you will complain about anything

>Why does Sup Forums vote against its own economic interests ?

A combination of Stockholm Syndrome and wanton stupidity.

Mostly the latter.

I worked in a gun factory for many years. We made over 2 million guns a year. What is your point?

this, import tariffs are what this nation needs.

The Strawman cometh...

If you are pro Democrat you are pro NAFTA and TPP

if you are pro NAFTA and TPP you are pro outsourcing, mass immigration, and oligarchy

if you are pro outsourcing, mass immigration, and oligarchy you aren't very well voting in your economic interest are you?

the country's most popular tv show (simpsons) features a man who works at a factory-like job

And this is due to job protection?

We are exporting more than we import due to Euro, which is 20% undervalued compared to what we would have if we

This means we are exporting more products and services than we import, and we get currency. The other European countries are exporting more money than they import, this is not sustainable. Since we now vouch for other Europeans countries debts this will eventually come back to us, so we are working for free to a large extend.

Simpsons is a relic of the late 80s-early 90s

>If you are pro Democrat you are pro NAFTA and TPP

The Strawman intensifies...

Chris Edges is a leftist
You're confusing the Democrat/Republican dichotomy as in left/right when they just are different sides of the same coin

Because I reject materialism, globalism and growth economy. I'd rather have system that's actually sustainable both economically and environmentally. If it means that I'll have to give up on some of the luxuries we currently have then so be it.

Uh who exactly?

Homer works in a Nuclear Power Plant where all he does is sit in a chair all day and press buttons before going off to start the plot of the show

You realize that having a low Euro is protectionism by other means right?

Germans can have high wages AND export a ton to the EURO because the other idiot countries adopted the same currency as you.

But he's not pro oligarchy/wall street which Obama is

I vote for my cultural interests

>globalism
what is globalization?

I do not vote in self interest because I am not a selfish prick but a person trying to pursue virtue.

Voting for you cultural interests are in your economic interests

unless you think Mexicans pushing down wages is good for the economy.

>just vote for some obscure party that has 0 chance of ever winning anything
Yeah, that's in our interests, faggot pls, you were all about talking when it was to make assumptions about Sup Forums's ideas and insult them.
But suddenly when it comes to actually coming forth about what you'd do suddenly silence.

wages are mostly pushed down because workers can't bargain with their bosses since they are not organized in unions

Your problem is with Neoliberalism. You simply haven't worked this out yet...

The reason for this is: in the United State no one is allowed to criticise "Capitalism" (in any of its forms).

I don't. I vote against taking MY money, and giving it to someone else that's too fucking lazy to work.

Literally every credible economist and CEO has already said raising the minimum wage would, at BEST, stifle job growth and prevent entry level workers from getting into the workforce.

At worst, it'll cause unemployment for a lot of people.

I vote against:
Taking my legally earned money
Giving my money to other people against my will
Mass immigration of foreign cultures
Refusal to acclimate immigrants
"Pressing One" for Spanish when I call a government number
Passing absurd regulations that serve no purpose than to put one form of business under

Basically, I vote against liberals and neocons whenever the opportunity arises.

Why do Marxists shitpost on Sup Forums thinking that no one will recognize their shitty political philosophy?

Check the flag, retard.

You retard, we have a full blown Socialist running for office. The entirety of the democratic party despises capitalism.

>massive outsourcing to China and various other countries
>Lack of employment in numerous parts of the country
>Businesses "forced" to hire more women and minorities over hard working white men
>Labor unions protect even the shittiest of workers. Businesses have a harder time weeding them out and bringing more profitable and responsible workers in

No thanks

>they are not organized in unions

That's why unions were always against mexican intellectuals invading the country and driving down wages

I know what neoliberalism is

It the economic policies pushed by globalists to destroy nationalism and hand all power to jewish oligarchs and multi national corporations.

But you're so delusional and obsessed with muh identity politics that you think mass immigration and destroying white nations is actually good.

Nigger I know you're a Brit.
Doesn't mean you don't have an opinion on foreign nations.
I have opinions on yours, and if I were to guess you're a cucked labour voter.

>bringing more profitable and responsible workers in


You mean "cheaper and lower paid Mexicans"

The interest of the middle class is not socialism.

thre's a reason growth was tremendous back then and we can barely stave away recessions right now

would you rather feed stinking negroes or build a space elevator? lmao

>You retard, we have a full blown Socialist running for office.

Er... Bernie hasn't recieved the nomination.

> The entirety of the democratic party despises capitalism.

The Democratic Party is Neoliberal, same as Repbublicans. This is why Bernie Sanders is such a threat to the democrat and republican establishment.

Trump is a Neoliberal. Same as the establishment.

>It the economic policies pushed by globalists to destroy nationalism and hand all power to jewish oligarchs and multi national corporations.

Well done.

>But you're so delusional and obsessed with muh identity politics that you think mass immigration and destroying white nations is actually good.

Er... wat?

Is that supposed to be ron paul?

We need to feed the niggers, so that they can make more niggers.
They'll become great scientists n sheeit this time we swear.
We just need to give them mo money fo dem programs.

>Er... wat?

the average leftist talking point is that we love the middle class but mass immigration pushing down their wages, outsourcing, and increasing housing costs is objectively good because "muh diversity"

It's been an more of an issue with more professional jobs I've seen. My father works at a university. They hire shit faculty and once they stay there long enough, they can't be laid off as easy, and eat the hell out of the dept.'s budget.
Good point tho, businesses know they can pay Mexicans shit and get something out of them, it just depends if you work blue or white collar

He looks like a Dan Schneider happy merchant caricature.

well lib art majors are useless in general

They shouldn't even be paid imo

I worked in an automotive factory from 2004 to 2015. Made 55K a year to run a stamping press. The plant shut down and shipped to Mexico last year. Industry is dying in the rust belt.

Even this Britbong Knows trump is full of shit

Yeah, that counts. We'll still be able to write everything down.

Awesome. Never been so proud, etc.

Worries over, thanks Sup Forums

Industry always lobbies and politician shouldn´t care about it. Too bad they do.

Trump is a nationalist

My electrical engineering and mechanical engineering degrees won't ever go out of use. No worries.

Pretty much. They always find ways taking most of the advising and organization jobs. There's one woman in his offices that has been there about 10 years. She has a shitty English degree.
He has a degree in accounting and finance and has only been there 3 years. He only makes $1k less than she does a year. In the end, their shit degrees don't land them very far

The this entire cartoon seems to forget that different time periods and different locations have a lot more factors to be considered than just what their liberal arts Professor taught them

>posts another strawman pic

Reminder that global cooling was never a 70s belief, no matter how many non-scientific magazine covers you post.

>But he's not pro oligarchy/wall street which Obama is
Which don't really contradict what the Poortugese guy said.

Does anyone even think the job situation in the West is even good in this day and age? There are no jobs.

This image of full of strawmen. It is meaningless.

>"I do things to help others, not because they're necessarily in my best interest!"
>"Why is Sup Forums so stupid that they do things not in their best interests?"

The problem isn't just industry moving, its that the labor plants that do stay, for the short while they last, pay piss-poor wages with huge turnover rates and no job security. The very act of allowing so many to leave manages to hurt the ones that stay.

You can do the same thing with a lot of shit OP.
Remember how the global warming alarmist warned us we'd all be dead by now?

Even funnier, remember when the liberals went nuts over the sequester?
And claimed it would destroy our economy like 1936?
And then our economy was not only fine, but actually became even fucking better somehow?

There is only one truth to economics.
Corporatism works. Corporate welfare works.
We have such a low unemployment and record high stock equity thanks to the bailouts and TARP.

I used to until I got a better job.
I worked in a auto parts factory that specialized in making formed fiberglass hoses for GM.
