RE: Watching Trump and the Opposition, I See More Of How the Money System Is Going To Collapse
Trump's idea about tariffs creating millions of new manufacturing jobs is antiquated by about 50 years. Multinational conglomerates don't want to pay Americans $25/hr to make their widgets and American workers don't want to work for below min wage and live in crowded company dormitories like Chinese workers do. If Apple had to pay American factory workers to make iPhones they would cost at least $10K each and nobody but the uber wealthy would buy them. It's a complete non-starter. Manufacturing will only ever become more, not less, like agriculture with machines doing the work of hundreds of men.
This is indeed true.
I do believe that T.H.E.Y. are bringing manufacturing back to America, because we have better property rights. So they aren't afraid of losing their fully automated factories that they are going to build.
