Spent 3 weeks in China….traveling through a bunch of big population areas. I was surprised how many Buick cars I saw.

I've heard that for whatever reason, Buick is the cats ass in China.

Is that like Tesla's are the bees knees in America?

How can they be reciprocal if Trump started the tariff squabble?!

Are you that ill informed?

I wish a buck was still silver, it was back, when the country was strong.

No more free lunch at the US tariff table. Winning.

I don't think the free market and capitalist crowd cares if we tariff countries who are tariffing us. If there's already a tariff on our goods, then the market has already been distorted, so we should respond in kind and ideally they go away on both sides.

They 100% care.

They DGAF if other countries tariff us and make it impossible for our companies to compete internationally.

I took it as sarcasm. But maybe I gave the poster too much credit?

ever wondered why we can't export trucks to Japan?

Have you ever driven in Japan? I have. Most American trucks and cars for that matter are too large for Japanese roads and parking spaces. That said, US auto/truck manufacturers should be able to compete fairly for Japan's market.

What would he be starting in the case of a country who puts zero tariffs on our goods?

And just like that Nucor announced this morning a price increase on flat products of $120/ton.

Someone not been watching scrap pricing??

We'll win this war, but we'll win it only by fighting and by showing the Germans that we've got more guts than they have, or ever will have. We're not going to just shoot the sons-of-b******, were going to rip out their living G*******d guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Hun c********** by the bushel-f****** basket. War is a bloody killing business. You've got to spill their blood or they will spill yours. Rip them up the belly. Shot them in the guts.
