I'm not sure I've ever seen a better setup.

While you are at it, taxing the hell out of people, how about forbidding remittances? All those immigrants sending money back home, don’t you think that’s an absurd… they should spend money in the good ole US of A…

Yeah that's the H1B issue. The hotel maids and shit spend most of their money here, they only make so much and still have to eat.
A lot of those Indian and Chinese engineers though, making 250k but living with 3 roommates and sending most of that money out of country.

Come back when you realize how absolutely precious Mexico is to the US economy. Oh, fuck it, I'll bite.

The supply chain in the US is heavily dependent on products from China that are much cheaper than those produced in the US, not only because of cheaper labor, but are the result of currency manipulation as well. China is literally footing the bill for these product for US consumers and accumulating a vast amount of debt as a result. For better or worse, that party is starting to end. Given that the Chinese debt crisis is roughly an order of magnitude greater than what the US saw in 2008, they're headed for trouble. That doesn't even begin to mention that the cheap labor in China is also drying up. It's been the case for quite some time that labor in China is less skilled and more expensive than other areas. Their manufacturing base and subsidies are the only reason they are still able to export as much as they do.

That doesn't even begin to mention their imploding demographic. The population numbers in China have been falsified for years. The one child policy and urbanization have gutted the birth rate. There are now more people in China older than 50 than under 50. Young people are the consumers and there aren't enough of them to keep the country afloat amidst the mounting debt.

The US quite literally cannot build a manufacturing base quickly enough to replace what we're about to lose. If you think you've seen bad inflation recently then hold on to your socks because you ain't seen nothing yet.

In comes Mexico that has a growing, young, and skilled workforce and the capacity to produce good and services at a cost folks in the US are willing to bear. If we fuck up that relationship, then those of you that are living on the margins are going to suffer. That is, the walmart shoppers among you that won't spend a cent more than you have to. Suddenly, those few cents you have won't yield the same quality of life you've been accustomed to.

You think an argument with this level of nuance (which honestly isn’t that nuanced) is going to make it into the bro podcasts or Fox News or any of the other red pill info ecosystem conversations? Not a chance. They’re going to get talking points and sound bites that don’t capture more than a single step of cause and effect. They’d be calling for Kamala’s impeachment if she was doing exactly what T is right now.

Got myself a good stash of oils I need to blast for a good few years at the end of 2024 when shortages were being predicted. Thankfully didn't get caught in their sudden closure. Regret not stocking up with more HGH tho.

Tracy was running sales every couple weeks in the last quarter of 2024. You had to be super lazy or cash strapped to not do anything.

HGH is still easy to come buy luckily.

Tariffs are a way to address trade imbalances. We run a trade deficit with Mexico on the order of $170 Billion. They have a $1.7 trillion dollar economy. The American consumer is subsidizing roughly 10% of the Mexican economy, before addressing things like tourism. Canada is around 3%. Thats a decent deal for them and why they get so upset when people start pointing out that "trade" should probably be closer to 50/50.

we just did a trade deal with mexico a few years ago. if its that bad we should never let who was in charge of the deal do another one

Remittances is one of the biggest factors that retains the dollar's relevance as a global currency. Are we really saying preventing money from being sent to weaker economies that trade with the US making them more able to afford US good is a bad thing? Make the dollar too hard to get and very soon they will replace it with money they can get.

I received a handjob personally from Tracy today, very happy customer

happy based on feelz? or did Jano actually check it out for you?

BS. The dollar is the global currency originally because of petrodollars, Brenton Woods etc. it has nothing to do with Chicanos sending money back to relatives.

AI: In 2023, the top five remittance recipient countries were India, Mexico, China, the Philippines, and Egypt.

All those Indian super cheap IT people that come via fraudulent H1B visa programs to work here and that common people think they are “genius” but they are not. There are 3 Indian companies involved in those scams. The government knows that for decades, they apply a little fine (slap in the wrist) and everything stays as it is. Hope the Donald change that.

Funny that two of the top 3 remittance countries are those that were pushing BRICs. Individual motivations will not let that move anywhere for now, but you actually think restricting flow of dollars is the best way to prevent countries from seeking reliance on dollars?
mmkay. This the same kind of thinking that makes people assume Tariffs are some sort of income tax on exporting countries.

The H1b stuff isn't really germane to this discussion lol. Citizens still remit. Green card holders remit. H1b fraud is a completely different issue.
It's also pretty rich to hear folks complain about H1b abuse but the USCIS gladly accepts multiple petitions and filings for the same people. There is a reason even them didn't make issues like multiple/duplicate filings illegal. the USCIS profits massively. Whether application is denied or not, they make bank. Capitalism.

fair enough.

Can’t argue with butt tingles

"Brown people bad!"

"WOOWOO."

Speaking of single step cause and effect. I continue be surprised at the inability of the general population to exercise second order reasoning. I consider this a fundamental shortcoming.... In myself, not the general population.

What? Fraudulent?

common people think they are “genius” but they are not

"Genius" implies a greater intellectual capacity. Putting aside a skewing of the mean likely as a result of nutritional deficiency in a portion of the population, I suspect Indians fall just about the same as folks in the US with regard to intellectual capability.

What they do have is a more advanced education. Like it or not, the average Indian gets a much stronger STEM education than one might find in the US. With regard to "fraudulent" H1Bs, I've never seen any evidence of this. One could point at the entire system and offer the opinion that it is corrupt in the sense that US corporations have lobbied very heavily to preserve it in an effort yield sufficient labor supply in the US to keep salaries under control.

Ultimately, the question is whether the increased labor supply yields enough economic activity to provide a net benefit. Probably, but I'm not sure.

In any case, folks in the US suffer at the hands of corporations as a result of the increased labor pool.

There is fraud in H1B, it’s due to inaccurate self reporting from individual. It’s not so common that it’s worth giving it much attention tho, the attention on it is fueled by xenophobia.

If someone loses their job to an unskilled foreign worker who lied on their application and complains about it they probably had a unrealistic sense of their value to society

damn so qsc really gone?

Dam bro you have no asked me a random question in so long I forgot you existed!! Everyone has surley missed you!!
