Kokinda: “On Saturday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio blew the lid off of a 50-year-old conspiracy. He said that the destruction of the American economy was deliberate.” Rubio: “The industrialization was not inevitable. It was a conscious policy choice, a decades long economic undertaking that stripped our nations of their wealth, of their productive capacity, and of their independence.” Kokinda: “He’s right. It wasn’t an accident. It wasn’t market forces. It was a plan written down 50 years ago and today we’re going to give you the receipts.”
Jamieson says that he supports tariffs as a policy tool, with illegal immigration, people buying Russian oil, etc. How will this affect our America First, not America alone? If tariffs are used against every country that we disagree with, what are the long term effects if countries just stop buying from us? Are we self sustained enough that we can afford that? Only time will tell!
”A country that structurally exports more than it imports, is benefitting off of other countries to serve its own growth” Finding a balance between supporting our own American workers while also respecting the sovereignty of other nations will be an interesting battle.
Alexander Hamilton: Creator of the American system; First Secretary of the Treasury; established the National Bank; combined tariffs and subsidies to help grow America. Henry Clay: Took up Hamilton’s project, continued advocating to the government for tariffs and policies that would help grow America from the inside. Henry Carey and Abraham Lincoln: Advocates for the American system during the Civil War, wanted the South to break away from the colonial system where cotton would be sent to Britain.
Our first example of how Hamilton’s system directly benefits the American economy. Once we switched to free trade, small manufacturing cities like Patterson suffered. Instead of building things for America, we were providing those same things to other countries.
”We want to be America First, not America alone. Take care of ourselves first, and then make relationships with other countries.” This is well said; no country should be catering to the needs of another nation first, or the whole basis will fall apart and that nation will no longer exist. Sovereignty is important, and finding a way to continue being productive on a global scale while ensuring the cultures of each individual nation are still being upheld is our most important mission.
When Tucker asked Tommy to replace “Should” with “Do I want to”, that is something we need to take into our own lives. Living off of other people’s expectations is unsustainable and terrible for our own well being.
