RE: 50% Tariff On EU Is Just Silly. Let’s Discuss.

Fair is fair. Europe adds huge amounts to USA imported products. I just think we’d be better off saving the money by leaving NATO. Let Europe control themselves and let USA hundreds of thousands of troops in Europe come home and defend homeland.

Perhaps. I find it disheartening that government used to be to serve the people and stabilize the economy and human rights across the globe. The saving money seems to be doing the opposite in recent months.
Government has never been about serving the people. With all respect That’s a silly fairytale. Most these organizations getting funding are money laundering scams. It’s a fake narrative that foreign aid funding cuts are hurting people. These programs are 99.99999% scams and payoffs.
99.99999% of stats are made up on the spot. Your Constitution literally establishes the framework for a government that is representative of the people. One of your founding fathers specifically stated in the historic Gettysburg Address "government of the people, by the people, for the people."
Maybe visit one of the 26 poorest countries and ask the people if the aid and food they depended upon was a scam. https://www.cgdev.org/blog/which-countries-are-most-exposed-us-aid-cuts-and-what-other-providers-can-do Maybe not the sole responsibility of the USA but sharing the wealth like other countries do to help feed the needy seems like a good use of resources.
Best focus on our own state of affairs before overextending internationally. How about cuts to feeding domestic vulnerable people? https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-cuts-hit-struggling-food-banks-risking-hunger-low-income-americans-2025-03-25/
Nah. Better to save money.
With all respect we couldn’t disagree more. Also your sources ate iffy at best. Reuters is bias AF & most of the so called cuts are not even in effect. Let’s just chat about another topic my brother. No point in arguing. We disagree on the foundation of the whole thing. So that makes it silly to argue when the foundation of it isn’t agreed on. Using Reuters as a source after there countless lies & propaganda the past decade just makes it impossible for me to take seriously. I can’t understand trusting mainstream media who gets funding from USA funded NGO’s…. I am thrilled in finally having even someone talking about cutting government corruption & spending. However I doubt much ever gets cut, it’s mostly media fear porn, but I sure hope it does. It’s mostly just media headlines. The cuts are partly speculation for future. Ur good people, we just don’t agree on the topic here. Cheers! 🍻
Oh for sure and not to be taken the wrong way. It is discussion for learning and sharing of perspective and not necessarily arguing.
I hate the left and the right equally and the red vs blue division game that is meant to neuter us and turn us all into impotent cynics.
I also believe in using our power and any advantage we have to help others. Individually and as countries.
