Why Trump's import tariffs do not help anyone

in blog •  7 years ago  (edited)

I think I have found another difference in our opinions here: "I simply don't think import tariffs are a good way to solve the problems of globalization" Globalization is the problem. With the different cultures all around the world comes different traditions, different religions and therefore different laws. The truth is the whole idea to me sounds like trying to fit a square peg in a round whole and the truth is we are dealing with people. The application of force with people is the definition of violence and criminal behavior. I can't support that? This doesn't mean that I cannot support your post. It doesn't mean I won't up vote your post when you clearly are attempting to provide value. It does mean however that many of my comments won't exactly be a support for globalization. If you object to this I will respect your wishes and mute you so as not to bother you. Let me know what your decision is.

I don't mind us having different opinions on globalization. Rather than that I like to have discussions about these kinds of topics with people who disagree with me while at the same time not being insulting. Only talking with people I am on the same page with would not be very helpful.

The cultural aspect of globalization is somewhat different from the economic aspect in my opinion. While I believe the latter to be unavoidable and also neccesary for technological advancement, the former is one that can cause many problems, for example the clash of wildly different cultures currently happening in europe due to the refugee crisis. Some cultures have obviously wildly different, and in the case of the Middle East for example, much more outdated beliefs and societal structures.

If you want to continue this discussion let me know, otherwise no hard feelings, I know Ive made some mistakes in my original post like mentioning Mexico, so please forgive me.

I think we can work at it in a way that increases the value of your post which should be both of our goals. Is why I up vote and comment and up vote comments as that is how we increase curation rewards and increase reputation.

Fore instance:

"The cultural aspect of globalization is somewhat different from the economic aspect in my opinion. While I believe the latter to be unavoidable"

Change the subject from globalization to Denverization and the unavoidable conflict comes into a much clearer context. If you personally happened to be the unavoidable conflict we might here an entirely different song. Instead of trying to hide the intent to harm a few to have it your way aspect of Globalization, try to speak freely.

One should be free to speak or write without fear of retribution. As a friend I am saying that your own consciousness is in conflict because you know people will not accept harming of people in the Globalization process. So instead of saying so out right you try to hide it (Freudian slip). You don't have to do that with me and in my opinion this slip shows your consciousness is aware of the conflict.

P.S watch how your reputation sky rockets as you have long conversation in comments on your post. Let me tell you the same will happen to my new steemit account. LOL
