Ordinarily not much, but go ahead and listen to the first five minutes of this video.
I
wouldn
’t
think Those Evil Foreigners would
respond to tariffs on foreign cars being imported
to the U.S.A. by imposing tariff
s on cars exported from the U.S.A., since the U.S.A.
exports
relatively few domestic-
built cars. (Which
company
exports the most domestically-built cars by value
?
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
!
)
I would expect
they’d respond with tariffs on products the U.S.A. exports a whole lot of.

For an anchor in a relatively partizan news channel, Maddow really dumbs down the news the same way I’d dumb-down an explanation of how internal combustion engines work to a six year old.

Most of her audience is over 70 years old, like my parents.

Kind of, sort of, but maybe not really? I consider myself a pretty liberal guy, and she turns me off. Not so much of what she says, but how she comes across. She’s clearly a very, very smart woman who heartily believes in what she is saying, but can take forever to get to her point, and spend 15 minutes (or more) teasing some big revelation that isn’t all that big . But she gets her viewers indignant and shaking their heads like the best of them. But then again, I don’t watch any of this news theater. Please bring back John Chancellor and David Brinkley, when news was news.

So what do you think about the prospect of a new
chicken tax, except against all imported
cars?

I am against tariffs in general. But to call foreign cars a security threat is so fucking stupid that I can’t find words for it. The fact that there isn’t a single American car on the market today that interests isn’t Honda’s (or BMW’s, or Mercedes’, etc) fault.

I think it would be met by huge taxes on US exports.
