USA is a consumer society. If USA wants to bring the deficit down then it should consume less. By the way following are the deficits US have by each country in order. Why trymp is not targeting Vietnam, Germany Ireland Japan or South Korea? \n \nChina $295.35 B \nMexico $171.86 B \nVietnam $129.38 B \nGermany $88.01 B \nIreland $87.23 B \nJapan $72.35 B \nSouth Korea $69.92 B \n \nCanada has $63.3 B trade deficit and mainly due to oil demands in US. All US has to do was to buy less oil from Canada and it would have worked out. US coming after Canada and putting an economic war because it want to acquire Canada. He is learning land grabbing from his friends, you know who is grabbing land in world from sovereign countries. \n \nThis may be the last election US had.

The people behind The Century Initiative will be very wealthy now thanks to the disaster caused by the mass migration. That wealth will roll into the pockets of the 40% of politicians that own rental properties as well. It's about greed and the disregard of real Canadians who struggle due to their poisonous plans.
Frames immigration as economically motivated conspiracy benefiting elites and politicians, mixing economic grievance with unverified claims about wealth transfer.

Trudeau is a WEF puppet. A tariff war between Canada and the U.S. is ridiculous to begin with, and it will certainly have negative consequences for the U.S., but much more so for Canada. Let's face it, the U.S. internal market is several times that of Canada. Many businesses in Canada exist only because of their trade with the U.S. The same is not true for the U.S. Trudeau can paint whatever picture he wants to Canadians, but the Trump administration is not made of fools and they are very much aware of the reasons they have for having enforced the tariffs.
Analyzes economic asymmetry between nations and tariff impact, with unsubstantiated 'WEF puppet' claim.

I'm not an expert by any stretch but I think what America is trying to do is, by doing this, force the US market to start up working again, America can make 90% of everything it needs. \n\nThink about WW2. America wasn't reliant on world trade or manufacturing. Quite the opposite actually.\n\nOnly thing that makes sense to me.
Speculates about US economic strategy and self-sufficiency in manufacturing, comparing current policy to historical WW2 economic independence.
