China's economy is in trouble and will bend to Trump's tariffs which are only making trade fair.

Are Trump's tariffs "fair" ?

"Whether tariffs implemented during the Trump administration were "fair" is a matter of considerable debate and depends on one's perspective. The tariffs, particularly those aimed at China and other countries, were intended to address trade imbalances and perceived unfair trade practices. However, many economists and businesses argued that the tariffs were detrimental, leading to higher costs for consumers, disruptions to global supply chains, and retaliatory measures from other countries.
Arguments for fairness:

• 
  
  Supporters of the tariffs argued that they were necessary to reduce the US trade deficit with countries like China and to level the playing field in international trade.
• 
  
  The tariffs were seen as a way to protect US industries from unfair competition from foreign producers, especially in sectors like steel and aluminum.
• 
  
  Some argued that the tariffs were justified as a means of pressuring China to respect intellectual property rights.

Arguments against fairness:

• Increased costs for consumers and businesses:
  The tariffs led to higher prices for imported goods, which were passed on to consumers and businesses.
• Disruptions to global supply chains:
  The tariffs disrupted established supply chains, leading to uncertainty and increased costs for companies that relied on imported materials.
• Retaliatory measures:
  Other countries retaliated with their own tariffs, leading to a "trade war" that further harmed the global economy.
• Economic slowdown:
  The tariffs were blamed for contributing to a slowdown in global economic growth and increased expectations of a recession.

In conclusion: There is no universally agreed-upon definition of "fair" in this context. Whether the tariffs were fair depends on the specific goals they were intended to achieve and the perceived costs and benefits of those goals.

Think about it. Trump would not have started this unless he was sure he would emerge victorious or at least appearing so.

All this dancing is just the prelude anyway. We are in another cold war, this time with China. Not an arms race, but a quantum c-o-m-p-u-t-i-n-g race. Whoever wins that race will rule if they want to, just as long as they are far enough ahead in the race when they decide to cyber attack.

Worried about tariffs? A quantum computer as primitive as a Commodore-64 was to digital c-om-p-u t-i-n-g, could break economies, shut off powers grids, or worse, put them out of commission altogether. It could break our military grade digital encryption in seconds that would take digital computers a thousand years to break, which is why we can use them successfully.

With 10 Commodore-64's the Germans might well have won WWII.

Several South Korean exchanges have announced the delisting of $HIFI, which has caused a wave of discussions. Delistings often signal regulatory issues, low liquidity, or risks. For investors, this is a worrying sign, especially when it comes to regional markets with active trading. Such events do not go unnoticed and are often recorded in the , because they directly affect the price and trust in the project. Now it is important to understand the reasons and actions of the $HIFI team in response to the situation.

It is at times frustrating how everyone with no experience, or prior knowledge, or showing any prior interest in a topic is all of a sudden an overnight expert armed exclusively with the talking points handed to them by the media invested in political rhetoric.

Oh hey Marchegiano's well known for having started an entire international market who went out of his way to pick a fight with China back in 2018. Might have some insight. Might could tell you propaganda from reality.

Nah doe dog. We got talking points handed to us from MSN and Fox we need to argue about and call ourselves informed citizens.



****ing bought your own 1984 you dumb ****s. look at the state of you.





Like all politicians, putting a light on something already happening, done been happening, and was going to continue happen regardless, just to put their name on it.

Tariffs took down unfair chinese practices? China still shipping on American coin? Can a Chinese company sue an American for copyright infringement? Alright then TF is you talking? I can still get a custom made counterfeit from Shenzhen. I didn't mention what because the answer is yes. phone? Sure, purse? sure. Currency? Sure. Whatever you like bro. But tariffs is the language we speaking huh?

Amazon and Lowes ain't have **** to do with ****. Tariffs and wither or not they're effective.

Like the idea that causality should be questioned is crazy. Hmm. Wonder what hand wrought that?

Nowhere in that pointless article did it say that china's economy is in trouble you fvkcing moron.

It also says this "Prospects for a major breakthrough appear dim" so if that's thr case then china's economy doesn't appear to be in bad shape

China is currently facing significant economic headwinds, with issues like a struggling real estate market, weak consumer spending, and concerns about local government finances. These challenges have led to a slowdown in growth, coupled with rising debt and concerns about deflation.
Here's a more detailed look at the situation:
Key Challenges:

• Local Government Debt:
  Deteriorating local government finances, particularly due to shrinking land revenues and rising debt burdens, threaten a sharp slowdown in investment.

• Private Sector Confidence:
  The private sector's "animal spirits" remain weak after policy crackdowns in recent years, leading to a reluctance to invest.

• Excess Capacity:
  China faces issues of excess capacity, particularly in manufacturing, which further complicates the situation.

• Rising Debt:
  China's debt-to-GDP ratio is high, and the is particularly acute at the local government level.

• :
  Concerns about deflation are growing, with falling prices at the factory gate and a potential for a similar situation in the consumer price index.

• Trade Tensions:
  Trade tensions with the United States and other countries also negatively impact China's economic outlook.

• :
  The property sector, a major driver of China's economy, is in a protracted downturn, with declining sales, construction starts, and property prices.
• Weak Consumer Spending:
  After the , Chinese consumers have been hesitant to spend, contributing to a sluggish economy.
