Sometimes, Americans need reminding that they’re only 4% of the people. And the other 96% are starting to get pretty tired of them acting up.

@carpediem tariffs. Add it to the list of imaginary problems.

@MasterLee The left will grab onto anything they can to whine and complain. I agree these tariffs are shaking up the world markets. And THAT is what I voted for. Let them cry. In the end, the US will come out miles ahead and slacker countries, like say.... CANADA, will learn a valuable lesson.

@carpediem its called find a decent product at a decent price. Period.

@HeidiA

Yes. Manufacturing died because they put no tariffs on 3rd world countries doing it cheaper

@carpediem You're clearly not a corporate BoD. Profit is not left nor right. It's business 101. It's what pays your wage, a majority of your insurance premiums, your paid time off, new equipment for a company...it's maint, the electricity the company uses, etc... Did you know...the taxes you pay in your paycheck...a company has to match and pay to the feds? That also comes from the profit. It's simply a requirement for any company to remain in business. You must be getting business advice from someone that had a lot of bankrupt companies. I bet that person would even send a casino into bankruptcy...could you imagine that one?! Crazy talk.

My advice:
1) Educate yourself using impartial sources for your political information. Dont use left or right resources. Sheep blindly follow without taking any action except to eat whats in front of them. Don't be a sheep.

2) Educate yourself in Business 101, in the Japanese business model, and in Macroeconomics.

This will be my last response to this thread. This started off with my request to not lump All Americans in as being of the same mindset. Point proven. Also, I just dont have much time for the maga's. Franky, they just arent worth much of my time. Life is short.

To the rest of the world:
Things are starting to happen to correct the issue in which we find ourselves. Hopefully, the momentum and pressure will build and spark permanent, positive, and productive change. Try and be patient with us (as difficult as that may be right now). Lies were told (repeatedly) and we apparently have an abundance of naive voters here.

You can help by clicking like, love, etc on this post and show the maga's they are the minority.

@PHlover19701 I own and operate three small companies with revenue in excess of $31,000,000 per year. Not very large, but I am engaged in the economic fabric. I know a little about paying taxes LOL. I'm guessing by your ignorant response you do not. The amount a company pays in federal employment tax is absolutely a cost of labor. It does not come out of company profit. Profit is realized after costs are accounted for and that includes employment taxes. They are a hard cost when someone employs labor.

Do you know what profit is?

@SunshineGirl State sales taxes are half or less of most EU VATs.

We'll see.

@BrandNewMan The important point is that they are not protectionist tariffs aimed at excluding international trade, as Trump implies . . they are applied equally to all businesses.

@HeidiA you might want to fact check that

@dale74 Why? Doesn’t it align with you ideology?

@dale74 And the rest of the world makes up 75% of it. Guess which one can survive without the other.

@HobNoblin

@tobynshorty Not at all, but it’s your job to make sure nutters who can’t keep a casino profitable aren’t given the whitehouse. And you failed. One term is excusable, but a second?

@HeidiA I didn’t fail. I didn’t vote for him. I understand worldwide frustration but it is only going to come back on the poor people of the US.😕

@tobynshorty It’s not over. If you work together you can apply pressure. You’re his employer after all. In large enough numbers you can achieve anything.

@manly no thats the libs

@MartinTheFirst And??

If you've nothing to offer .. maybe just don't. 🤷🏻

@BrandNewMan I think I offered a lot right there

@BlueVeins we became arrogant the United States has been arrogant for the last 50 years or longer

@BlueVeins Not you, more the people currently sitting in power.

@HeidiA We're the ones who put them there, over and over again. We have lost our sense of direction. Pain will be our teacher.

@KingofBones1 Perhaps you aren’t of sound judgement after all.

@durinsBane1983 With servers in Bangladesh?

@MsSwan I’m not paying for anything right now, you muppet. But anymore nonsense off you and you’ll be going - off this post.

@HeidiA

@MsSwan Strange person

@HeidiA brush your teeth

@ArtieKat my gaze prefers fixating on the future.

@thrash Bye bye, have a nice life.
