Canadian Tariff situation gets its own thread

Increase in real wages.

From the graph in the link below, real wages seem to draw pretty straight line that increases starting in about 2014 and continuing to today.

Hey Beauregard, address the topic of the thread instead of deflecting from the discussion with your usual atavistic and false narratives in praise of your covetous MAGAt Moses.
What about Trump’s bald face lies and threats against Canada? What about the punitive sanctions?
Bet you haven’t the balls to engage the subject directly.

Yeah regarding poverty and real wages, not sure where that claim comes from @Jolly do you have numbers to back up that claim?
Poverty reductions by President:
- Clinton: Reduced by 3.8%
- Obama: Reduced by 1.6%
- Trump: Reduced by 0.8%
Real-wage grow by President, the green line is the 1st quartile of wage earners:

The tariff stuff has to calm down. I don't think very many of his voters were expecting the fifth fastest stock market correction in history. The global market and its efficiencies are sort of a big deal, and America's prosperity depends on it. So does America's piggy bank, the stock market.

I agree.
I know I’ve said before but….
You cannot fool the market. In fact you cannot fool the market any more than you can fool the law of gravity. Any politician(s) in past who thought they could, failed. Sometimes with catastrophic consequences. This time round won’t be any different.

Billboard Chris has an interesting proposal. Why don’t we just buy Canada? Offer every living Canadian resident $100K if they vote to become part of the US… That would be about $4 Trillion… A lot of money, but think of the resources!

You'd only need to buy 51% of the votes. Maybe only pay the women to vote for it. That way, opposition to the plan would be misogynistic.
