Comments by "Lavender Eucalyptus" (@lavendereucalyptus3225) on "Trump Is Facing a Losing Tariff War With China" video.

I’m average American consumer, and my wage has been stagnant for decades, it can’t even keep up with inflation. Please convince me why I should pay a Chinese EV (if allowed imports into U.S.) twice higher with 100% slapping US tariff than its original Chinese competitive consumer friendly price with superb quality EV?! Government high tariff is designed to protect the uncompetitive slacker US industries. Too bad American consumers can’t enjoy Chinese EV with extremely affordable price and superb quality that would kick Tesla to the curb. So our government raises tariff in order to ‘protect’ the lousy and expensive and government subsdidized poorly made American made cars? Why should Americans be loyal to sucker plutocrats? Shouldn’t we encourage fair and fierce competition so we Americans can compete in fair ground and truly become better competitors instead of being spoiled by our government bail out and subsidies. American protectionism not only it does not benefit American average middle to lower middle class consumers, it will make its industries LESS competitive in world markets, because they are expensive and lower quality. High tariff creates the biggest losers which is the average lower end consumers. If you believe Trump is doing work for average Americans, you are sold by his cheap lies.

Has US citizens asked TWO critical questions for high tariff increases? 1. High tariff, high inflation, high consumer price. Why should average American consumers bear the brunt of inflation and high price of goods from high tariffs? 2. Where and what does our government allocate these revenues from high tariffs? Did they use on building American new infrastructures? Did they use on helping Americans get better affordable healthcare? Did they use on helping Americans get better and affordable higher educations? Did they use on building more affordable housing for lower income Americans? OR the government use these revenues on MORE WARS sending money without any delay to Ukraine and Israel…? OR make the rich richer, the poor poorer? Americans, ask your government officials these critical questions.

@ShovelShovel Thinking and being critical, using brain cells is DOING A LOT MORE WORK than lazy sleepy brains. What are you? Afraid of American people start using their brains and find out the truth?

Without Chinese labor market and cheaper labor, it’s impossible you can enjoy many many things you are taking for granted today. Stop hating on China, start holding your own GREEDY CORRUPT government politicians accountable, your government failed you, not China. But oh how convenient to scapegoat China, so they can direct your hate and anger on China instead of the original sinner, American politicians and American oligarchs plutocrats. things you are taking for granted today.

@ILIVEAGOODLIFE Exactly! With all the resources of money and energies US politicians have been spending on trying to ‘contain’ and ‘destroying’ China’s development, they could have used these resources on improving itself! But improving itself takes longer time to see results, so as usual, US politicians and big businesses take short and cheap bandaid policies with short myopic vision trying everything to put road blocks on Chinese development. US political system is so corrupt, they are incapable of competing by international trade rules, so they CHEAT.

@AveCaesar2025 And shame on US acting as if they care about environment and climate change, then blame China as a big emission contributor. China has done much more to change the trajectory of climate and environment as a DEVELOPING country than U.S. as a DEVELOPED country. Now under Trump’s administration, there is no hope at all US Woolf join the fight to climate change. US is a threat to the world in terms of peace and wellbeing of the planet.
