Honestly, is there any group more stupid than the working-class whites? They have consistently voted against their economic interests for decades now out of racism/xenophobia, homophobia, and a pathetic admiration for rich white Republicans, who just see them as pawns
I am not sure what these working-class white people expect to happen. Where are the "jobs" they talk about going to come back from?
Do they expect that Trump is going to pass legislation so that it suddenly becomes more economical again for a company to have a US-based factory where they pay Americans a livable wage than it is to have a Chinese factory where they pay children peanuts?
Do they think 12 million people will be deported, a wall will be built and maintained, and now all those Americans trying to get landscaping jobs in Southern California and Texas will finally be able to without competition from Jose?

you see, this is why you lost, because you liberal faggots in your daddy mansions think yourselves the holders of the only truth and the only ones who should speak. You have bullied the people who have built the nation over the last centuries and in the last years you have constantly insulted and humiliated them, and you have the nerve to wish for them to continue being oppressed, silenced and ignored while they are expected to continue working for no gratitude or respect

Taxing goods entering the country.
Right now a company can open a factory in Mexico, pay them in shitty Pasos, then sell the product in the US. It's essentially currency trading via producing goods.

Economies of scale keeps rural areas from jobs.
That's just the way it is. The free market fixed them.
Why would I put a factory in Kentucky when I could put one in Virginia and reach millions more people while saving hundreds of thousands of dollars per year?

Carson Russell
It's actually quite simple: we just have to take advantage of the inefficiency of our size.
If we disincentivize people from living in giant megalopolis cities with welfare and housing, people will seek property and opportunities in less crowded areas, meaning that those people will need services and infrastructure. Because it can't possibly be centralized, we create more jobs and liquid funds and prosperity by putting our people to work instead of supporting them on the dole.
Getting America to move into the rural parts of the country is how we improve things.
If diversity is important (it is mostly a net benefit if you don't waste money forcing it to happen artificially), then the best policy is to get diversity out of the city and share it.
People will respect muslims if they are in their small towns working respectable jobs. Same with Mexicans and blacks. Everyone wins, everyone profits. Except for real estate speculators.
Jacob Nguyen

Jaxon Cruz
They are no more stupid than the other side. A few dumb asses believe that jobs magically appear (and a few on the other side thought Obama was gonna pay the mortgages).
Mostly, I believe, they feel like the economic recovery skipped them. It's frustrating being told that everything is better when your life is just getting worse. Trump's isolationist leaning platform may actually help these people. Certainly more likely than more free trade would help them.
But mostly what Spain bro is saying... this is like the final phrases in the Grapes of Wrath.

So tell me, why should working-class whites vote democrats when those people hate them simply for being white and poor? Democrats were tho ones who bashed and bullied whites for decades and it was Hillary supporters like Lena Dunham who called for the extinciotn of white men. >Working class whites voting against their own extinction >stupid Pick one.

Yes, because Trump is gonna tax chinese products to hell so that american workers can finally compete.
By the way, did you just defend chinese slavery?

When the american worker finally has good jobs and economic prosperity, he will be able to afford himself nice things and maybe expensive things as well. It worked before, not even too long ago, just a few decades. Why shouldn't it work now?
Justin Scott
Just pie in the sky, but I'd like to see a wage and environmental tariff disparity system. Tariffs to be adjusted based on worker pay and environmental protection of the exporting country.
Use slave labor in China and keep dumping heavy metals in the rivers? Tariff balances that to a Federal minimum wage job and dealing with the EPA bullshit.
It would make iCrap more expensive here, hell a lot of non essential items would get way more expensive. We'd adjust, and have a more robust manufacturing base.
Jace Martin
CTR and Libtards are traversing anger now so you know. They are trying to snark and snarll at all of us cause they lost.
Connor Reyes
Factory workers in the US cost 23x as much as Chinese workers while only being 2x as productive. This doesn't even include all the other more expensive costs associated with a factory. You're going to tax the shit out of a company, seriously risking them just not dealing with the US altogether, just so some unskilled physical laborers in the US can feel like America is "great again"? Yea, not going to happen.
Ryder Rivera
He is not obligated to release his tax returns. >mug Drumpf is a rapist xdddd
There is literally ZERO proof that the women actually didn't consent to be grabbed by the pussy. Why are you denying a women the right to decide about her own body?
You act as if no women ever fucked a rich guy for his money. Which is exactly what Trump's "pussy grabbing story" describes.

I do believe that what you just watched was an election asking for that to happen.
Thankfully our system has checks and balances and moves slowly. You won't see it overnight but look for a shift that way... labor and environmental arbitrage was good for soaring profits for 20+ years. We may see the reigns pulled back on it a bit...
At least that's what was sold.
Adrian Davis
Stupid people are so shortsighted and afraid of losing their obsolete laborer jobs that they'd let corporations take huge tax cuts to fuck them over like slaves and fuck up our economy.
Aiden Howard
>why shouldn't it work now Because a protectionism and mercantilism doesn't work. Even the prosperity from the Marshall Plan relied on cheap workers after all European economies collapsed. The logical step for Trump's policies would be to invite more illegal mexicans. He wants to deport them.
Kayden Turner
At some point a system must generate something. A country of all bartenders runs out of liquor.
Not everyone is a great thinker inventing the next Internet sensation. We can't produce intangibles and import physical items forever. If we were to try we'd have to subsidize an even larger swath of our population so they can survive...

Jayden Diaz
A country where people are working just to work when there are more efficient ways to create the products they're making is just stupid.
You can bring the factories back, but guess what they're going to do? Automate the shit out of them. They'll have robots that are 100x as productive at a fraction of the cost in no time.
People will just have to accept that capitalism in its current form is unsustainable.

The influx of "illegals" in the last 100 years have only helped America be the most dominant military, economic, and cultural power in the world.
The backlash against current "illegals" is purely about xenophobia and politics. It is not based on a reasoned assessment of the effect of immigration, legal or not, on the American economy.
Asher Scott
Popular vote was manipulated by intense democratic party voter fraud. Without your voter fraud it would have been a landslide election for trump by 8 pm
Justin Reed
>Protectionism will bring our jobs back Everyone who is a middle-class non-factory worker will be paying more for goods to make up for companies' lost profits. Until companies just automate the factory jobs away completely. US manufacturing productivity is at an all time high - it just requires far fewer employees.
Oh well. The dialectic is in motion.
Nathan Clark
Except.. you lost as well. Trump played you like a bitch and you were too stupid too notice
Jayden Adams
I gave you facts, you gave me talking points. Seems obvious who is blindly parroting the Huffington post's talking points.
Xavier Ross
We weren't just discussing method of production. We were talking cost of production and implied level of consumption. If you only focus on efficiency as a dollar cost per unit consumed I believe you are falling into the trap that makes this an unstable system.
Consider that the efficiency you prize in China comes at a cost to the citizens quality of life. Housing and lifestyle options are limited. The country is turning into a waste dump.
Attempting to normalize the cost between a place that dumps into the rivers and a place that treats their water is a reasonable response.
If the automated factories were placed here would all the manufacturing jobs return? Nope.. but we'd have more people building and upgrading robots that work in the factories, more janitors cleaning up, more accountants tracking inventory...
The decrease in efficiency would result in lower consumption overall, but so does having a bunch of underemployed people. With transit costs, underemployment, inefficiency of training, capital asset purchases, retaliatory tariffs, I don't think I'm qualified to answer the question 'is it good or bad?'. But I bet you aren't either. So the electoral body signed up to try, I guess we see what happens
John Brooks
There was never a claim in the OP that jobs were a problem. The argument was for the foolishness of middle-class whites. You may as well have given me the quarterly sales figures of dentures. Your attempt to move the goalposts were noted, and summarily called out.
Isaiah Watson

It might come as a stunning surprise to you, but lots of people are craving for a policy that puts it's voters on the front row. Invest in them.
I'm not afraid of the future, in Europe the same is being heard in the streets, informed people do not fear him, we understand his views. It's now up to him to make sure that policy is put in place where Americans can feel confident they are put in front of global agenda.
Here in Europe we also feel betrayed by our politicians. We want Europe to thrive, it doesn't mean breaking with the rest of the world, but maybe revisiting agreements made. Focusing on the people not the politicians.

>which implies that their economic situation would change based on who they voted for Incorrect. It would imply they BELIEVE their economic situation would change based on the candidate they elect. The entire frame of this argument is based on the inference that middle-class whites are unhappy with the current job rates. A correct inference I might add, given that jobs is a huge part of Trump's platform. And the inference that they believe voting for Trump is a step in the right direction in fixing them.
>Not to mention that he repeatedly uses "do they think" "do their expect" implying that they actually give a fuck about any of this Explain exactly what you don't believe they are interested in. Because if it is jobs, they absolutely do.

Truly amazing the bubble you live in. A question for your massive iq is..why do companies move abroad to manufacture? Is it A. Federal laws so extreme that the cost of manufacturing is hugely expensive B. Ensure only union jobs that limit flexibility and movement increase the costs of jobs C. Restrict the creation of jobs outside a sphere of influence to ensure the company has to continually pay back via taxes to politicians to ensure survival D. Deny workers the right to make their own decision cos you know better E. all of the fucking above I am sure your paper based degrees will have some slick muh union job saves abuse or some other bollocks your professor who never worked a fucking day will tell you to say.
Hey sparky let me tell you a few truths from someone 30 years in business Get the fuck out of the way you useless cunt. Stop creating 9gorillion fucking petty rules that save giant corps cos they pay you more to leave them alone and make you feel good about yourself at the wine parties The world is about to undergo a massive technology shift with both IT systems all the way to 3d printing and your solution is to hobble US firms to insist lgbt toilet sharing? Do you think the Chinese give a fuck about lgbt toilets...yet you come in here on your 1000 dollar iPhone and high fucking morals to insult workers. Fuck you. If you care about workers don't buy your iPhone you fucking lib cunt.
No your answer is to insult the very people who support the whole fucking edifice because they didn't vote for your candidate and her bullshit glass ceiling. Here a home truth about business you didn't hear in gender studies..you know who I hire to work..the best person to do the job. Don't give a flying fiddler's fuck if they are male, female,lgbt or a fucking martian. Do the job you get paid...
