:Trump's first round of tariffs on April 2 was about nostalgia for the manufacturing economy. That's a lost cause. Then Trump pivoted and made it all about China. But what does he want from China? If it's about opening the Chinese market, that won't be easy. Trump tried doing that in his first term without success. You can't appeal to Chinese public opinion. That doesn't exist. The Chinese people "follow the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party," as the Constitution puts it. [[User:PeterKa|PeterKa]] ([[User talk:PeterKa|talk]]) 08:13, April 15, 2025 (EDT)

:::It's the same problem America exporters always had: Few can afford to pay the [[inflated]] and high wages of American workers (which include the costs of [[Obamacare]], maternity leave for [[gay married]] people, etc.). It seems only the [[military industrial complex]] thrives on exports. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''Zelensky Must Go!'']]</sup> 12:13, April 15, 2025 (EDT)
::Is the reindustrialization of the USA a lost cause? China is the workshop of the world and its fertility rate is 1.18 children per woman. Robotization/AI are both progressing. The world is likely going to have to replace the workshop of the world given its super low fertility rate and its vehement dislike of foreigners immigrating to their country.
