Yes, it’s a PCM meme, but still accurate as fuck.

      By making the products more expensive while your wages stagnate? How’s that balancing anything out?

        Why will wages stagnante?

        A rising tide raises all boats or in this case wages.

                I read your non-response, which is why I asked how wages will stagnate to your response to tarrifs.

                  The argument was that wages rise if labour is scarce. My counter is that labour will just be moved outside with the people, thus countering the scarcity, thus making wages stagnate rather than increase.

                  Somehow tariffs are supposed to balance this out. Which is really the nonsense in all of this.

                    So you have no rebuttal to tarrifs stopping companies from moving manufacturing outside the US.
