A chain made entirely of weak links.
A few, for sure. Britain, Germany, and France were perhaps foolish to be dragged down.

I don't think I actually said that. What I said was they work less hours, have more time off and as a whole have more money to spend (based on the fact their middle class is larger as a whole). I was contradicting the fact that they are so heavily taxed that they evidently have troubles living.
You can't compare how we live to how they do. Our cultures are completely different. For the most part theirs is OLD.... The housing is hundreds of years old compared to ours in most cases (large cities). But the cost of living for essentials is similar if not lower than what we pay. Housing is higher but their wages are as well.

23 days split between vacation, personal days, sick days, holidays is ridiculous? Good grief....
... look again at my reference - a New Hire gets 23 Days - a bit Extreme

Go Deep State!Watch out, the king makers are coming for Trump. These guys usually mean business and may dump the economy to get a compliant president of their choosing. I don't think he said this without permission.
"There's even a argument that the election itself falls within the fed's purview."
Trump should go after these mofos and get rid of their currency and go to our own sound currency along with balanced trade.
Crazy times could be coming. Go Trump, kick some fed butt!
Former Fed official Bill Dudley urges the central bank not to embolden Trump on trade or his 2020 re-election bid
The highly unusual warning came after a week of head-spinning trade escalations between the largest economies.markets.businessinsider.com
2manyfats is upset people with skills are able to negotiate better benefits.
Go Deep State!
Trump could impose a system of mandatory import licenses that ends the $320 billion bilateral trade imbalance. Issue U.S. exporters resalable licenses to purchase goods from China in proportion to their sales there. The more China buys in America, the more it can sell here but if it retaliates against American farmers, then it must sell less here. And implement tough financial sanctions against technology pirates like Huawei and their banks.
No it isnt.Cliff's notes: this needs to be done, but don't say it's going to be an "easy win" with little to no pain or that it's going to bring home a dearth of jobs. Both are lies.
Somebody at CNBC gets it, even if he tries to diminish the benefit to our economy -
Tariffs are no longer China's biggest problem in the trade war
The decoupling push is quite different than any U.S. efforts to get China to open up more of its economy to American companies. Instead, it focuses on reducing America's extremely heavy reliance on China for so much of its manufacturing needs, Jake Novak writes.www.cnbc.com
Keep making deals with other partners, Orange Man. Keep taking it to China.
Just remember they are liars and cheats.
Another thing buttressing the idea of decoupling from China is the national security element. This is about way more then American jobs. It's about the wisdom of putting all our import eggs in one bucket. If I was a betting man I would lay good money that the Chinese will cave pretty soon.

One China hardliner gone in Bolton. If Navarro gets canned, I would expect a trade deal to be reached sooner than later.
Yes. he will fold and hope his base is dumb enough to believe his spin. Like North Korea and The Wall...
