Well, we agree in some ways and not others...

Globalism is mistreated as a notion. I think of it in terms of we take advantage of your cheap labor, and at the same time help you grow and prosper, move into the 21st Century, and be able to afford our products, so in a way investing in the future, and it is a win win for everyone’s growth. For example, iPhones are the top high end brand in China, and that is because the Chinese can now afford them. The results for Apple is that in the last 5 years it went from 40% foreign sales to over 60% now. It is starting to build the smaller iPhone in India now, and that market is a huge target for them, but they must be able to afford them.

I hate nationalism and socialism that impedes progress and innovation for the sake of those who won’t do.

Student loans are a problem because what you could do in America in the 70s, get an inexpensive education at your local state universities has become extinct, but that was one big reason that had fueled America’s business. No more. It is to our interests to educate thise who want intstead of becoming plumbers.

Trade tarriffs are anathema. China’s currency manipulation on the other hand is not good, but as you see Trump has like his predecessor done nothing about it, despite his big uncle Wally words, because China fuels American business by making it competitive around the world. If Apple had problems putting together its phones in China, it would go from the NO 1 valuable company in the world to nothing in a matter of weeks.

Things aren’t always what they seem. There are many layers to global business, which is the only business America can win at, if we don’t have a buffoon, who has bancrupted every business he started other than real estate, which is leveraged to the hilt, guide America in this century. The only goid thing he did is drop corporate taxes, but he is doubling the deficit in just a year, and increases the debt by trillions in the next few.

BAD SHIT COMING!

ZZ

I am a capitalist as are the vast majority of all conservatives. Especially business people.

But there is a difference in terminology between being GLOBAL in business, and being a globalist or globalism.

I know all about bring global in business. Had an office in Taiwan, TaiPei to be exact.

However, I manufactured my products here in the U.S. in Ohio. I know a LOT of large corporations and did business with them, several were fortune 500 and a few fortune 200.

So Yes sir, I agree, Reagan was a capitalist, which the Democrats howled and howled about and really, nothing has changed.

No, protectionist policies are Nationalism.

SOcialism is where the democrats want to tax everybody and redistribute the wealth and give everyone everything from cradle to grave with no means to pay for any of it.

Take student loans as a small example. IF ya cannot afford to pay back money ya borrow, then don;t borrow it. Go to a local state college or community college. After you get employed, if you want to further the education, then consider using ONLINE courses and pay for them as you go....

As I said, my kids went to college and both today have doctoral degrees and beyond. They owed NOTHING when they graduated.

It can be done but it requires WORK..Something most dipshits today are not willing to do, much less PAY BACK student loans they took out unnecessarily because they did not want to work and go to school at same time...

Innovation occurs for several reasons and factors, none of which are associated with TRADE tariffs.

Billy CLinton and Obuckwheat both pretty much killed American manufacturing with their policies and programs that were TOXIC to corporations. HIGH corporate taxes, highest in world, don't help when competing and neither does allowing the competitors overseas sell into our country while being subsidized by their governments.

Just a couple easy examples.

Ya know, if ya keep on talking, I believe you actually could acquire some conservative basic principles, which are really just basic common sense 101, same as business practices and principles.......

Thanks for the feedback!

On Samsung, have you ever owned a Galaxy Smart phone, or a Monitor, or OLED curved t.v ?

Samsung Ranges are bad. But lot of other things they make are great and top tier. Just look at the reviews by Consumer Reports.

That said, everyone can't be great at everything and some are not good at anything.

AUdi is owned by VW. The President of Hyundai Corporation was a former head of engineering for Audi whom Hyundai hired away from them several years ago, which is when their cars and Kia started to really get better and better. Now they are always among the top three sedans in the ratings....

Dependable also.. German engineering is normally good. Just repairing anything with one when something goes bad is a small fortune and a lot of time.

THanks for chatting ! Good evening!
