The United States is just too expensive to produce items in. For example, my country is one of the lead producers of e-bikes in the world; but even if you put 150% tariffs, it'd still be cheaper to produce it here than in your country.

You are learning the hard part of Marx now.

The USA never really worked out. They conquered the South because otherwise they would have become insolvent. They destroyed Nord Stream to get rid of a competitor. They blackmail politicians worldwide, or murder them, or build political careers of US puppets. The USA needs to commit these crimes.

Because Trump is a criminal that is stealing money from everyone that needs to buy imported products, thats the real motive of the tariffs, it takes several years to plan, build and tool up a factory to start manufacturing products

Why would they move at all? The advantage is purely artificial and will evaporate when the tariffs are removed, forcing them to move again.

employment rates =/= manufacturing output.
American companies build what is needed. Employment rates are not indicative of economic output.
America automates literally everything it can, and it's MUCH cheaper to build anything cumbersome domestically.
America also has one of the world's most productive electronics industries. If China had America's electronics manufacturing capabilities they would want for nothing else.

Because Wall Street knows that as soon as Trump is out of office in 3.5 years, the next president will remove all the tarrifs. They are willing to take 4 years of losses so that they don't have to move anything back to the US.
Also, tarrifs affect outgoing products as much as they do incoming products.

Their entire culture is about scamming to make lots of money and fast without thinking in the future all that counts is that numbers must go up for the next quarter.
Their quality is garbage and their wages ridiculously high so who is able to buy made in America crap? We can get cheap garbage from China much cheaper.
And you can't just create expertise and educated workers if you just throw money at it. Trump will be gone in a few years anyway and then all the tariff garbage will change once again so no company will invest in longterm planning with shorterm president.
Only value usa has is very low taxes and cheap energy but that's it.

If you're absolutely superior in something then you can tariff the world and get away with it but since you exported your entire industry the only thing you have left is muuh consumer market but that doesn't work out anymore since the entire world becomes richer every year.
You're not super rich anymore and most Americans are filled with debts.

If you want the war you need the tariffs. "And that's what's happened for years and decades, to the point where if all you do is import steel and all you do is import aluminum and all you do is import copper, how are you going to fight a war? We need steel to be made domestically. And so Donald Trump is saying, I'm going to take that government subsidy off the table. I'm going to put tariffs in to make it equal, so Americans build steel here so that if we want to fight a war, we can make our own ships, our own missiles"

I wonder why Trump slapped a 39% tariff on the Swiss, unless Trump knows Switzerland is the nwo HQ and wants to punish them.

Swiss are very big in pharmaceutical stuff so he hopes they will relocate to the USA and produce in the USA for India wages.

Other countries don't call them tariffs and are just import taxes for everything, because tariffs are taxes on the importer, paid by the importer and passed onto the final consumer, retard.

The Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) shows the maximum number of two goods (like e-bikes and aircraft) a country can produce using all its resources efficiently.

If you build more aircraft, you must build fewer e-bikes, and vice versa—this is called opportunity cost.

However, through trade, countries can specialize in what they produce more efficiently (e.g., one makes more e-bikes, the other more aircraft), and both can end up with more of both goods than they could alone—gaining beyond their PPF.

Regulations, tariffs, bureaucracy and so on can be used to funnel capital towards specific industries and away from others, via politics you can try to dictate opportunity cost

You increase the price by 25%, the consumer pays the extra cost as the retailer recoups his losses. Eventually the consumer has to reevaluate what expenditures are really necessary. Leisure and entertainment are the first unnecessary expense. Cinemas suffer, bars and restaurants lose business, vacations are cut short or put off. Rental companies, hotels, tourist economies fail. TV and streaming services get cut, more job freezes and job losses- more people cutting expenses as a result, on and on.

Next is putting off big ticket purchase: appliances, home upgrades and repairs. Tariffs have made this crap too expensive this year; maybe next year. Another 50k jobs lost in construction as a result. Forget luxury brands and that new car, can barely afford housing as prices inflate as less homes are manufactured (tariffs on material for manufacturing). Oh oh, daddy got “doged” ! No college for you. No one is hiring due to hiring freezes caused by the uncertainty of the tariffs.
Brown outs in the NorthEast. Yeah, Canada supplies a lot of electricity to the US but tariffs are making it difficult to continue doing so.

Spoiler alert: the tariffs have only now kicked in as of August 1 and we are only on day 3….

Theoretically, if we produce at home, more people will have jobs in manufacturing. While pricing won’t come down, having a job would allow one more purchasing power. Reality: most manufacturing jobs don’t pay all that much. “Cheap crap” would be too costly to manufacture here. When we do produce something of reasonable quality, people working in manufacturing jobs still can’t afford.
