Matt Walsh is a never trumper?

As far as tariffs are concerned, you'll probably be surprised to find that a massive amount of right wing pundits are against them for exactly the reasons you state.

What I find funny is how people on the left have suddenly discovered Milton Friedman in their railings against Trump.

They don't have to. They only have to subsidize it enough to tank the rest of the world's auto manufacturing. Then, they become the only one left, a monopolist in a market with a huge barrier to entry. They can pull their subsidies at that point and rake in the excess profit.

This is a classic trade manipulation strategy. It's taught in undergrad business classes.

They care about it because it's exactly their plan - they tank the rest of the world's auto industry, then they take over. We've seen this pattern with industry after industry. This is why dealing with them is problematic - they are not operating in good faith.

This is why we have those tariffs. Divesting from China is of utmost national security interest for the United States and should be for the European Union as well.

And just because Orange Man Bad doesn't mean you shouldn't keep your wits about you. You strike me as the kind of person who would suffocate themself if Trump suddenly said he likes oxygen.

And causing massive damage to global economies and labor markets. We're looking at the gutting of the source of livelihood for millions of people here. According to the AI chatbot I just looked at, approximately 10.8 to 14 million people derive their income from the European auto industry and around 4.5 to 8 million people from the US auto industry.

This is why trade policy protects against dumping.

I'm looking at this thing, and honestly I can't see what the point is. An external keyboard with macros? How does that have anything to do with sound? Why does it take inputs and outputs for sound even? I don't get it. Why would I buy this thing for $400 when I can just plug my speakers into my PC and be done with it? There are plenty of software tools to reroute sound around from different sources to different output devices. Why would I need this cluttering up my desk?

1) Decades? I suppose if you mean around 18 decades. Mercury amalgam was invented in the 1800s

2) It's not. The mercury is coming from the fallout of coal burning. This is a poor attempt at diversion.

3) yes.

See, I don't get it. Just change your business hours - it's not hard.

Time to short LOGI.

Zulu Africa would seem a good spot to me...

No matter how much or how little you make, you will always feel as though you are an inch away from poverty.

What you are really saying is that you don't want to make any sacrifices for your own family.

The thing with kids and finances is to just do it - it will work out in the end. It always does.

Get married young.
Have 3 kids by 30.
Don't worry about the money. It will come.

Do something the robots can't do - raise a family.

Rule 1 of politics: Accuse the other side of what you yourself are in fact doing.

Nah. It's pretty easy. Truth is Truth, no matter what. Now the other side, I can totally see how that would be mentally exhausting. You need to hold two mutually conflicting ideas in your mind at the same time and believe both are true -- on so many issues.

I stopped reading new releases because it's all propaganda. The publishing houses are very tightly controlling what makes it to press, and if it doesn't conform to a certain set of opinions, it never sees the light of day. So, since I refuse to be propagandized, I just won't read their stuff. Same goes with movies and television.

The current book I'm reading Lord of the World by Robert Hugh Benson, was published in 1907. Amazing how much good stuff is in the public domain now.
