and that is the problem from the globalist fascist liberals... globalism (aka freetrade) can not work unless ALL is EQUAL






someone making $100/week in Mexico is living well... but that would not cut it ANYWHERE in the USA, where the median hourly wage is $25/hr

You’ve lost your mind.

Fascism is nationalism on steroids. Fascism has nothing to do with neoliberal globalization and free trade.

I think my leanings are considered more liberal/progressive than conservative, and I know better than to reason with someone who writes the things you do, but can I at least respectfully suggest you give up the effort to describe opinion, philosophy and/or ideology you don't begin to understand?

Liberals don't believe or advocate that ALL is EQUAL, for example. Not sure how much time you have spent outside the country, but any numbskull can understand the different standards of living that are different in one economy vs another. Hell, we've even got plenty of that disparity found in different parts of the United States! Pointing at the obvious is no way to pretend you know what you think you know about all these political labels you like throwing around like mud in a mud fight.

I was almost tempted there for a second to elaborate with a bit "more of the story," but then again I am reminded that with those who demonstrate the most extreme ways of thinking, the chances of better reason, logic and understanding are all the more extremely remote.

For you too, I highly recommend a careful review of this thread...

...maybe to reflect and appreciate the dynamic I'm referring to, that is a problem for all of us.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Consult a dictionary.

Ah, the uneducated Trump supporter. Every -ism is the same to them; they have no clue what any of them mean.

It's sad that this is the level of ignorance that put an equally ignorant man in the WH.

actually liberals constantly push the all equal, or one size fits all, or the nationalism/nationalizing/national level of things... look at the min wage argument from them, even though there are 1500 different economies within the USA

Have you actually heard them push for proposal where everyone would earn the same, - the min wage?

I sure never have.

Why?

Because no one ever proposed such thing.

you haven't... they (liberals) are pushing for a NATIONAL (FEDERAL) level at $15/hr plus


min wage should NOT be federal... set it at state level, or even better locally





meanwhile there are 1500 different economies (cost of living areas) within the USA

The most immediate problem for what is now a very robust economy is a growing shortage of skilled workers while the threat of a tariff war casts a cloud over the future.
But for now, times are good.
I heard our economy is so robust, any punishment they could throw at us via tariff backlash would probably go unnoticed, so expect this to be a nonfactor while we bring back mfg to the USA.
