      Belgium, or just look at my profile. It’s the first word there.

      You Americans all say USA anyways, it’s same size as china or Europe in land size. What state are you from

          I could, but I’d have to do research about it and it would be the most basic shit you’d already have heard 50 times.

          You’d be weaker if decentralised into 50 countries, but you’d not randomly have 125% tariff on china.

          Both centralisation and decentralisation have their benefits.

          Well, good luck. It’s going to be turbulent for 4 years.

              The monarchy is basically a cheerleader group, they are symbolic. The leader of the country is the prime minister, currently Bart De Wever.

              For the EU it doesn’t matter that trump puts 20% tariffs, as long as china has higher tariffs. China sells to us, we manufacture it further, we sell it to the USA.

              It doesn’t even matter that much, you folks barely have any VAT on your products. These tariffs will be a discriminatory VAT.

              It’s going to hurt a lot in the short term. This is a policy that requires a steady leadership like china has. I don’t believe the USA has the structure for that. In the next elections it will be a landslide victory for the democrats. Too much chaos and uncertainty, looks like child’s play to win such an election.

                  They are socially leftist but economically not.

                  Stocks did quite well under Biden, so I don’t see an issue. Bottom 50% of the population gained a larger percentage of total wealth.

                  Why would you even want a manufacturing job? We’re paying people without education to do that. We’re paying their living costs, which is far cheaper. Then import it cheaply.

                  I’m only interested in the difficult jobs. Engineers never had an issue getting a job.

                  My mate applying for an Amazon job for minimum wage, like what. He’s wasting all his opportunity. I never worked for a minimum wage job, never will.

                  Anyways, I made good profit on trump’s market crash. Today’s a good day
