So again, beacuse there cheaper people would have less products to sell and the price would go up for exactly the same quality of goods if every major corporation decided to buy American.

Also there would be a material shortage very quickly.


Only until we start utilizing our own resources. China produces nothing we can't produce ourselves.

But they produce more of it for less. Buying American means prices are jacked up along the conga line all the way to the consumer. You might be filthy rich and not care, but a lot of people who need some of those products aren't.

This is really, really disturbing and shocking.

And the fact that people in that place's comments section are defending this too is worse.

Deportation requires a judicial hearing, or are you saying that should be skipped?

If they have no rights then it's fine to torture, rape and/or murder them?

You said they have no rights. That would imply anything can be done to them. So what's your answer?

No rights as far as the constitution is concerned but irc rape and murder still ranks highly on the “don’t do” list.

Because it's kind of predictable how the first response to anything is always "kick out the browns". Only sometimes with due process as per the constitution as well.
