On defense: the US likes to be on top with military expenses because it helps the military industrial complex and therefore the US economy. It also creates dependencies that funnel even more money into America’s pockets. Case in point the future expectations for US arms manufacturers have gone down after Trump started his stupid trade war while the European companies have seen surges. It’s not going to help the US when Europe arms up but doesn’t use US military equipment or weapons.
On dairy: The US overproduces milk which is heavily subsidized by our government. Canada does not. Therefore there is a lot of cheap (and lower quality mind you) dairy available from the US. To protect its own dairy industry there is a tariff. However, Trump negotiated a tariff free quantity that allows US milk to be imported without tariffs (last time he was around - he must have forgotten). Not even half of that quantity has even been reached for most categories in a given year. So no one is actually paying any dairy tariffs in Canada.
1. Your first statement implies strongly that the U.S. buys more weapons than it needs. Ursula von der Leyen and Volodymar Zelensky clearly disagrees with you. So does Taiwan.
2. I am not here to support the Military-Industrial Complex. I'm here to support the United States of America. If Boeing takes a hit, so be it. They'll be busy with the F-47.
3. Your dairy point just completely misses the point.
1. It doesn’t but nice try. Please refrain from distorting my point so it favors your fantasy argument.
2. I’m the last one to support the US military industrial complex. I’m quite happy about Europe waking up and starting to rely less economically and militarily on the USA. Unlike you I do see the real strain this will put on the US economy. I just don’t give a shit. That’s what you voted for so good luck with the repercussions ☺️
3. It doesn’t. Again nice try to argue without arguments. And it took you a while to reply which shows that it was hard to come up with something logical to refute my point. Which continues to stand as written.
Such a bad take. Examples:
