The Decline of America

Tweet

Most of the world recognised that China had 'invaded' Third World Countries in the 1980s. Selling products cheaper, loaning government's money, creating the 'Belt and Road', on and on until Chinese products filled the shelves. From computers to motorcycles, shoes to stoves, everything comes from China. The only nation which doesn't know that is the United States, especially the President who, it must be recognised, doesn't even know American reality. The tariffs he is implementing will effect Americans. They will pay more. Common Sense states that if this sells for $100 and the tariff makes it $150 it is the purchaser who pays the tariff. Many people who travel will buy items in other countries, those countries buy as little as possible from the US. The positive side is that Caribbean countries increase their trade with each other, with Africa and South America, and Canada should be busy selling goods to us, not to the US. Yes, countries which depended on America, (most in Africa) suffer with the end of aid, so will have to find help elsewhere. Which isn't a bad thing. America can fool itself into thinking it is the centre of the planet, while China and other nations take more control.
