Trump talks about stronger economy all the time. Tariffs are just one aspect of it. There are many other aspects of his end goal. For instance, there's also manufacturing, regulation and tax cuts, energy production, health care, housing availability, etc. etc.
Kamala has zero plan for a stronger economy ~ she's all about destroying our economy.
Tariffs are useless when in Bangladesh people are happy to work for $2/day, and in India for $100/month, and in Thailand for $10/day. Americans have no clue at all about the other 8 Billion people on this Earth. Americans live in a total ilussion.
They don't, otherwise you wouldn't see blogs like these, also the problem isn't america; its the bankers in charge of the BiS and FED. They know about the Economic calculation problem, and they've done nothing since their establishment to correct course.
Tariffs are part of the solution, when you have countries utilizing slave labor to manipulate their currency/trade through printing within the international markets its a necessity.
They do this primarily to set up long running economic attacks when conditions change. Unfortunately, the entire tactical gambit depends on the targets own countrymen accepting the dependency/inducement of the remote supply chain, which will naturally occur when there are high levels of bureaucracy/corruption (which go hand-in-hand).
The USD won't be the reserve currency for much longer. The Saudi's didn't renew the Petrodollar agreement, which means the pool of those holding dollars is in significantly less demand and will inflate. What was $2 one day, may be $4, then $8, then more. The purchasing power however will drop as it inflates and they won't work for those static wages when they can no longer support themselves (in currency normalized purchasing power for goods)
Trump is a fascist, and insurrectionist. Kamala's policies are communistic/socialistic. Which do you think is the lesser of the two evils?
Hint: The choice is no choice at all. If you have properly studied the failings of communism, there really is only one rational answer which turns everything into an authoritarian regime, but one that's recoverable. Communism is a spiral of madness, slavery, destruction, then death/annihilation.
All of this has happened before. All of this will happen again.
Generally speaking, I agree with everything you're saying.
One correction, though ~ we all have a gross misunderstanding of what fascism actually is. I did a study on it, and what I learned is that it's actually a form of government that has to exist to get a country turned around from a Communist form or attempted takeover to a republican form. It's a temporary form of government that requires an iron rod to get a country back to freedom.
Concerning Trump being an insurrectionist ~ don't fall for the Marxist wishful thinking propaganda. Research the entire story from every angle, not just from one side of the story.
Trump has zero intention of being a life long dictator. In fact, he is already the president of the restored constitutional republic of These United States of America. Biden has been the president of the bankrupted and completely defunct UNITED STATES, Inc. His administration, completely Communist controlled, are (illegal) foreign occupiers, and as such, are traitors, seditious saboteurs, and enemy combatants, most of whom have now been executed, but a few have fled and are hiding out in Communist countries.
At this point, they have no power and they know it, but being cornered as they are and refusing to give up, they're doomed to fight to the very moment of their last breath.
Please, don't take my word for anything I'm saying. Do your own research ~ just make sure you look at EVERY side of the story, including origins of organizations and movements and complete histories.
One other thing, tariffs being a tax pushed off onto the consumer is an illusion. If a country produces and sells its own product, there are no tariffs on that product, so the consumer has a choice ~ they can but American made with no taxes, or they can buy foreign made with the accompanying taxes. Trump intends for nearly all products sold in the USofA to be made in the USofA.
Income taxes, being illegal in the first place, will be totally ended ~ most of them are already. The IRS is a private off shore bank, de facto.
There will also be no more property taxes, also illegal. Tax wise ~ there will only be a flat tax charged only on brand new products, encouraging the purchases of used products, replacing our present throw away society, with a far more practical buying system built on quality construction vs. the Communist cutting-corners construction.
“Strong” currency is still currency which means it’s still worthless. Sound money is the only solution and we should accept nothing less. As long as the currency is backed by nothing they will make it worthless. Higher rates just slightly delays how fast it becomes worthless.
I listened to Trump talking at the New York Economic Forum. All he does is boast about what he thinks he accomplished. It is boring. It is lazy. He had no good ideas. He's not truthful. In 2016 he said lots of things I liked. I supported him. He disappointed me from day one when he selected all CFR people to run everything. Anyone who thinks the US and Western Europe can survive with their welfare society lives in Lala Land. The days of being able to get rich by financialization are ending. The world is no longer is awe of the US Dollar or the Pound or Euro.
The financial system would have to go through too much pain for either of them to straighten out the economy. Both are not allowed to create the pain necessary in the financial system for this to happen.
Higher rates and stronger dollar would not translate well in an economy during THEIR terms.
Higher rates (or tigher credit restrictions) would make leasing cars, using credit cards, and buying houses more difficult for the middle to lower class (largest population) and the "stronger dollar" (due to the higher rates will a lower PRICE (nominal terms) in the stock market/ 401ks etc and other asset classes. This, along with banks, corporations, and business closures (due to higher rates on the debt) would probaly spark mass layoffs and protests. Though all of us here know what the right move should be - Im not sure we would want to remain (short term) in the economy (or specific area) that is "viloently withdrawing" from easy credit. NO president wants that in the history books under their term.
The average person and invester is "deliberatly" confused about "purchasing power".
People think that the higher the number they see in their portfolios the better / more secure they are. And in some instances thats true -today. But what they dont realize is the number is high due to lose of purchasing power. Couple that with manipulated markets and a fed funds rates (due to no free markets). We are forced to chase price not value.
Businesses use loans to finance business growth. Not the classical investment in innovation, but increasing inputs to scale. Business growth means a growth in GDP which reduces inflation and increases tax take. A stronger dollar reduces exports, driving up foreign debt. Because u.s.a owes nations due to bretton woods conference et al, and repayment would be cash it doesnt have, exports cause the buyer to surrender its 'u.s. foreign reserves' reducing debt. (1 reason why the biggest economy at the time was selected.) Treasury interest also drives up foreign debt (debt consolidation) and reduces liquidity (liquidity being tax take ) leading to more quantitative easing. A stronger dollar in turn helps imports and a higher interest rate helps investors. Because the U.S. government isnt at $0 debt, nor aiming for zero debt, citizens boycotting banks in favour of treasury bonds, wouldnt reduce tax nor increase infrastructure spending on primary class of government lenders (hypothetical people) but it would drive down the number of mortgages and housing inflation.
Really, we can't say we are forced to do anything until they come with guns to take it or do something coercive.
It is true, the average person/investor is misled about the markets. This is because corruption and graft rule supreme and leadership didn't do their job.
However, have you considered that the manipulated markets you speak of may largely just be an effect of the economic calculation problem described by Mises.
Money/inflation seems to have similar characteristics to a limited visibility n-body problem with arbitrary changing constants (i.e. variables, not really constants).
What we need are honest scales. What we have is an abomination. The CPI is cooked and the Fed is holding the other end. We need truth and Justice. We need to end the Fed and go back to real money. The US dollar is defined as gold and silver and we need to end our fascination with zeroes. If you have a Million dollars(fed debt notes) or 100 dollars(constitutional money) if they buy the same goods and services they have the same value. End the Fed and end the government borrowing outside times of declared war and only from US citizens. No more debt to be played back by people who don't even exist yet.
Have you considered that the Fed has literally caused all normal business to be crowded out by zombified companies through the requirement to defend against a leveraged buyout, and preferential loans (like AT&T). Who but the government would provide a loan for 100+ years at a rate that loses money to inflation.
We live under an oligarchy. We don't know how many are at the top or who they are. I agree that the people come in last in this system and government, institutions, and financial entities are self serving and self perpetuating. They will move more and more power from the people to control systems such as the fed debt dollar or whatever the next thing will be. Knowledge is power. But Faith, Hope, and Love are what matter.
I don't believe that we can solve the problem, we're too far gone. All that politicians can do is either burn it down, or kick the can further down the road. Honestly, I vote for burn it down, let's start over while I'm still around to watch the flames.
You would really need to do three major things to bring things back to a balance.
Cap inheritance at 100x median yearly annual national wage. Everything above the limit is forfeit to the state. No exemptions.
Increase the Tax rate dramatically on all business income for companies and individuals, with larger than 4% marketshare. Anything above 8% marketshare should zero sum any revenue. Anything larger than 8% the taxes should outweigh the revenue made by a scaling factor.
Medicare and Social Security need to be removed. The financials don't rationally work, and the growing debt have become a systemic national security threat.
Those actions would largely fix the monetary concentration issues, remove unlawful influence and also most current vehicles for corruption and graft.
Because they are both playing for the same team.
Yes, the same team; Team FED.
I've been done with the selection cycle for a while now.
I only believe what God says and my gut feelings.
This is a spiritual war and there are MANY who walk and talk on the dark side. I try to concentrate on what truly is important and nothing more.
God. Family. Helping others. Preparing. And of course, target practice.🙏✝️✌️

Because the voting public is absolutely stupid to the facts!
Because no one touches the presidential ball without being in someone’s pocket

Vote or do not vote, it makes no difference. It is a UNIPARTY under the control of the central bank.
Because truth is the enemy of government and those who control the puppet strings. If voting mattered it would be illegal. One big fat uniparty.
Vote noun
3
: the right to cast a vote
specifically : the right of suffrage : franchise - Franchise as in a corporation?
And there would be licensing.

Higher tariffs are much better than price controls. Above all, however, low taxes strengthen the economy. Reduce taxes! Reduce taxes! Reduce taxes!
KABBALAH HARRIS
Increase the corporate income tax rate to 28 percent.
Increase the top tax rate on long-term capital gains to 28 percent for taxable income above $1 million.
Increase the net investment income tax (NIIT) to reach 5 percent on income above $400,000.
THE DONALDO
Lower the corporate income tax rate from 21 percent to 20 percent.
Lower the corporate income tax rate to 15 percent for companies that make their products in the US.
Consider replacing personal income taxes with increased tariffs.
Exempt Social Security benefits from taxation.
Impose a universal baseline tariff on all US imports of 10 percent to 20 percent.
Consider replacing personal income taxes with increased tariffs.

How about no taxes. Don't vote!
BOTH ARE PLANED BAD IDEAS
More control over you and me
