My late grandfather continues to be to today the wisest man I’ve ever met.
Grandpa had frequent sense. He got here to America from Germany within the early 1900s, with no dime to his identify. He labored for 20 years as a butcher. He saved up sufficient cash to start out his personal butcher retailer.
He labored 16-hour days, 6 days every week for 40 years in that little butcher retailer. It grew to become wildly profitable. He grew to become higher center class. He purchased shares. The shares went up. He prospered. He grew to become a pacesetter within the enterprise neighborhood. That little butcher retailer paid for his two grandchildren (me and my sister) to attend Ivy League college- Columbia College.
One little butcher retailer with six butcher blocks- that’s all it took to attain the American Dream.
Grandpa taught me the important thing to success. He stated…
“There are solely two guidelines in enterprise. Rule quantity one- the client is all the time proper. Rule quantity two- if the client is unsuitable, refer again to rule primary.”
These two guidelines helped Grandpa obtain the American dream. He handled his prospects like gold. He rolled out the pink carpet. He bought solely one of the best cuts of meat. He made positive they had been all the time happy, or he gave them their meat free of charge. He knew with out his prospects, he was out of enterprise.
That is why President Trump is a superb businessman and chief. That is why Trump’s tariffs will succeed and Trump (and America) will win the commerce wars.
As a result of America is the world’s primary buyer.
And the client is all the time proper. The shopper all the time wins. No enterprise or economic system can survive with out its prospects. They name the pictures. Even when they’re unsuitable, refer again to rule primary…
The shopper is all the time proper.
American customers purchase all the pieces from everybody. If we sneeze, the world economic system catches a chilly. If we cease shopping for their merchandise, the world economic system collapses.
With out our customers, the economies of China, Canada, Mexico and the EU all collapse. They will’t win this commerce warfare. We maintain all of the playing cards.
China has over a billion citizens- however they’re largely poor-living in abject poverty. India has over a billion citizens- however they’re largely poor- dwelling in abject poverty. We don’t rely upon China or India, not to mention Mexico or Canada. We don’t want them.
However all of them want us.
The third largest nation on the planet is America- and our 330 million residents are largely wealthy by the world’s requirements. They’ve a excessive commonplace of living- one of the best in world historical past. Even People who’re poor, are wealthy by world requirements. They’ve disposable revenue, and so they like to spend, spend, spend. We purchase all the pieces everybody else makes- electronics, jewellery, toys, clothes, furnishings, materials, carpets, building supplies like metal and aluminum. We purchase EVERYTHING.
With out the US shopping for, everybody on the planet is up sh**t’s creek with no paddle.
President Trump is aware of this. He is aware of the remainder of the world will depend on American customers shopping for their items. He is aware of they will’t survive with out us. That offers us POWER.
So, the remainder of the world can cry, and scream, and huff and puff, and threaten to blow our home down, nevertheless it’s all a bluff. Ultimately, they will’t final. They are going to starve if we cease shopping for. They are going to all fold to Trump’s calls for.
Trump and American customers maintain all of the playing cards.
Listed below are the one prospects that can come out of those commerce/tariff wars…
1. We cease shopping for from China and the remainder of the world. Their economies collapse.
2. China and the remainder of the world ultimately offers in, they survive, however we win.
3. As a result of they offer in, Trump lowers tariffs on every nation. However the cash that pours in from even low tariffs pays our taxes, and Trump can use all that cash to both decrease revenue taxes dramatically; or finish revenue taxes totally.
4. Even when these international locations give in, and we decrease tariffs, the ball has began rolling in the appropriate direction- we carry extra manufacturing again to the USA. We create extra jobs for center class People. Extra People purchase American items. Our nation prospers.
5. To fulfill Trump, Mexico and Canada safe the border. Drug trafficking is drastically diminished. And China stops the circulation of fentanyl. Over the subsequent decade that saves the lives of about ONE MILLION American younger folks. These are your little kids.
6. We carry the manufacturing of essential provide chains again to the USA- like prescribed drugs, antibiotics, and the pc chips that run our vehicles, computer systems, cell telephones, home equipment and army equipment- tanks, fighter jets, missiles and battleships.
7. And if the commerce warfare lasts some time, and subsequently costs do go up- bear in mind, US customers have a choice- purchase American and lower your expenses.
8. There’s yet another risk nobody is speaking about. Any enhance in costs might be eaten by China, or China’s American suppliers. Who says the patron pays for the tariffs? That’s a scare tactic. In the event that they need to maintain promoting their items, China and the others will eat the associated fee, or ask Walmart, Costco, Residence Depot and CVS to eat the associated fee (or cut up the associated fee). These tariffs might wind up costing U.S. customers little, or nothing.
These long-term accomplishments will supercharge our economic system, maintain us the strongest nation on the planet, make People affluent, save our youngsters’s lives, and within the case of a warfare with China- maintain America robust and protected from having our provide chains taken away.
Will there be a bit of short-term ache? Positive. Nevertheless it’s price it. “No ache, no acquire.”
Ultimately, Trump is right- once more. America will win this commerce/tariff warfare. As a result of as my grandfather stated all these years in the past…
The shopper is all the time proper.
