Manufacture in US , pay less Tariff, hire Americans to do your work. Is that a definition of a senseless person ? Did you check unemployment index in Nigeria, compared to US ?

HenryWilliams:
Even with low tariff..the cost of production is way way higher..
He might want to sound tough and pro-US but this is a battle he can't win. Product costs would be too high for the average American to buy spiking inflation and overhead resulting in the same job loss that has plagued them for decades..
There's a reason why most companies outsource their production to China or India.
That's the way it has been for over 2 decades or so..the US can't change it .

TheWitchKing:
Best he moves production to south america. Nations like Guatemala and say Peru and co would be a better bet .

Tjra:
So America should import from China what they can manufacture in their country?

In this era of automation, cheap labour overseas isn't an excuse anymore.

Na you no get sense bro.

Roboto11:
You mean they would suddenly know how to make microchips in Guatemala?

TheWitchKing:
It took time for China to perfect, It would take time, but its achievable. Your coloration of China as a super power is something to be thought over. I rest my case, we done talking.

If you don't agree with an opinion, engage it constructively and stop advertising your illiterate mind. I do engage my country too.

Roboto11:
China that has 1 billion individuals, strong in Asia and African continent, for whom the USA is indebted to the tune of over 1 trillion dollars, to you isn't a super power?

You mean a country that produces almost all gadgets, cheaper and sometimes better than what exists elsewhere isn't a super power?

You think that is something you just dump on some other soil and, voila, they just start producing?

They won't have MOUs with other nations for their raw materials.

Those other nations would abandon their own relationships with China just to please the US.

Those nations that joined BRICS would pay obeisance to Trump and USA because he is the King of the wold and without him they are toast.

You guys say the darnedest things.

For all of you hailing this man. This is gibberish nonsense. The minimum wage in the US is $15 dollars an hour. Any product made in there will be very very expensive. He thinks he love his country but he is about to put them in trouble.

udemzyudex:
Madam there was nothing constructive about your post.
And your opinion on what doesn't concern you is trash.
Madam intelligence.

Fearurcreeator:
E no concern you

Stop all this beer parlour analysis...
Where and when did U.S.A help China??
For more than 2 decades now the U.S are the largest importer from China.

Konquest:
Indeed, if LOWER TAXES are offered for multinational companies that would eventually move to operate in the United States, then things might pan out right. On the other hand, to threaten VERY STIFF taxes on imported goods from other countries would also trigger a rash of higher taxes on imported American goods thereby nullifying whatever advantages Donald and his economic team are trying to achieve. So, each country has to find a BALANCE when engaging with international business entities.

These are the push-and-pull dynamics you get to encounter in international trade.

NOETHNICITY:
Manufacturing in USA is fuuucking expensive
Makes no business sense to do so

ScarletBrace:
So you no know say China's accession into WTO in 2001 was a huge factor that shaped her global significance today?
That's more than 2 decades now. Those born in the 90s and 80s at least, know that the "made in China" thing wasn't a trend at the time.
The US played a major role in China's accession into WTO.., triggering a new era for China to open up to the world for global opportunities in the wake of underlying reforms, induced by the influence of the Western globalization ideology,, which had a great impact on Hong Kong, China's greatest trading partner at the time.

I don't expect you to know as far back as before you were born, cos you bubus have an anemic reading culture these days. You just pick up headlines and confuse yourselves with semantics.

What concerns you with my post. Whatever I post isn't your concern or business

Dougad:
I do not even think the gains from the lower taxes Trump proposes would be enough to offset the cost of these businesses moving their operations from a country where they have already established a well-oiled manufacturing process while also maintaining significantly low overhead to a country with high cost of living where increase in labour costs is guaranteed and eventually will lead to a rapid increase in the price of their finished products. This increase in price will eventually lock their market reach within the US and they'll have to calculate if it's going to be worth it in the long run.

justmondris:
Really? they play. He should do the needful or subsidize their cost of manufacturing in America so that the production cost will be the same with the cost of manufacturing in China.

He is more likely to fail because of pride. He thinks he can always issue commands to get things done. Pride done dey enter am.

dealslip:
My opinion no concern you. Face your front.

udemzyudex:
Just stop posting nonsense online and calling it your opinion.
