april 2 'liberation day' predictions;

[country978]

Don't give up now, Sonatine. You people are supposed to be welcoming of diversity of thought. I'm not saying I like the free plane or the way these trade issues were handled or the unsettled war with the Russians. I do like the idea of peace with the Syrians and Iranians though and I like it that he's trying to solve the Russian issue. We'll know when the mid-terms come whether or not he was ultimately a success or failure. Until then I give him the benefit of the doubt.

Nothing he ever does would be enough for the crazies on here. No clue why you treat them with respect. The left is human garbage worried about their own self interest in having a country where the lazy are rewarded and success is punished.

Fuck fat ass Tine sitting on it daily collecting from the taxpayers to survive. Without Druff providing this forum he would have no reason to live. No family, no real friends it’s a miserable life he leads.

I'm the only true liberal who posts here. That's why I treat everyone with respect. That and I've no interest in 10 seconds of my day being spent with ill feelings towards others. Sonatine has been rude and sometimes for no good reason but I'm not ever allowing it to get under my skin so much that I'm berating him weeks later in unrelated topics.

That's malice in the heart and I don't have that for anyone.

Trump tells Walmart to eat the cost of his tariffs instead of raising prices

Walmart should STOP trying to blame Tariffs as the reason for raising prices throughout the chain,” Trump posted. “Walmart made BILLIONS OF DOLLARS last year, far more than expected. Between Walmart and China they should, as is said, “EAT THE TARIFFS,” and not charge valued customers ANYTHING. I’ll be watching, and so will your customers!!!”

Ozempic is alleged to have protective effects against cognitive decline. This is a very unfortunate development.

Nixon wage and price controls? We are in a national emergency after all.

It ain’t going to happen. The CEO knows if profits tank, he’ll be ousted by the board and shareholders, as it should be.

I was just talking some shit about QE in another thread.

The Cantillon Effect describes how the introduction of new money into an economy affects prices unevenly, benefiting those who receive the money first while disadvantaging others. This phenomenon highlights that inflation does not impact all goods and services equally, leading to distortions in relative prices.

Google Cantillon Effect just to add to your trivia repertoire. I’m hung over and not up to describing it

It benefits corporations and investors and disadvantages wage earners. It’s the post 2008 economy and core to the MAGA outrage. Trump is giving a nod to the Walmart MAGA voter. His political instincts took over here. Horrible fucking look to the Ron Paul guys amongst us

Tariffs are inflationary, of course. I didn’t have to say it but I can see how I might have seemed off point. There will be QE too. (QEII lol)

[lol wow]

bruh 21 pages i assume sonatine came off looking retarded as his his wont

A startling decision Wednesday from the United States Court of International Trade appeared to put at least a temporary pause on many of President Trump's wide-ranging tariffs.

The Manhattan-based trade court ruled in an opinion issued by a three-judge panel that a key 1977 law called the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not give Trump "unbounded" authority to issue the worldwide and retaliatory tariffs the president has imposed by executive order in recent months.

A US trade court just blocked a wide swath of Trump's tariffs. Here are the duties that may be impacted.

edit: this was just announced about 1.5 hrs. ago, trade futures are very much up....

futures are up because of nvda earnings (i think?). the government is going to have to pay back all those tarriffs btw.

Make no mistake. Easing is already here and more is coming.

Remember Silicon Valley Bank? They got caught holding mucho Treasuries whose value declined as interest rates obviously rose post Covid.

The problem was solved when the Fed promised to buy the Treasuries back at full face value no matter what. Bank Term Funding Program was the moniker used to describe this.

It’s a great way to find a fresh new market for Treasuries and fight rising interest rates. AND allow banks to lend fresh money into existence which will be inflationary.

Let’s make the Bank Term Funding Program permanent

That’s just one program in the wings. Lotta ingenuity is going to be put to work. Easing of Bank capital requirements etc etc. We ain’t rolling over. The fight is gonna be almost as good as the Stanley Cup Finals.

Assets of all, kinds will get a bid with the fresh inflation.

When I was a kid I would find myself in a construction elevator attached to the side of a high rise being built . I’m trying to look cool with the construction workers crowded inside the cab. A grizzled worker looked at me and said as we were descending, “Don’t lock your knees”. The elevator operator was apt to bounce off the spring at the bottom.

Don’t lock your knees Sonatine cause it will indeed come to a sudden stop eventually. But don’t forego the promise of riches until then

Trump’s constant craving for fresh attention getting topics made the boring old standard issue of the national debt fade into the background. He was our last great hope and it’s not gonna happen.

AI Agents in 2026 and the intelligence explosion in 2027 is gonna rock an unsteady economy.

Just as the Industrial Revolution caused a movement from farms to the cities - the AI revolution might cause a migration back to rural America so people can subsistence farm between UBI checks. Those (white collar) displaced will be uniquely less qualified to make it raising chickens

back to square 1....

WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal appeals court on Thursday allowed President Donald Trump to continue collecting tariffs under an emergency powers law for now, as his administration appeals an order striking down the bulk of his signature set of economic policies.

The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit granted an emergency motion from the Trump administration arguing that a halt is “critical for the country’s national security.”

The appeals court temporarily halted the order from a federal trade court issued a day before.

All Congress has to do is pass legislation approving the tariffs. Of course, none of them are going to put their asses on the line for it. They have elections next year.

it really is amazing that many of you...

a) had initial faith that Cheeto Jesus was going to be able to make ANY of his economic proposals come to fruition in his own timeline
b) STILL have faith....
