Are you referring to his personal tattoos, or are you referring to the dictator's draconian tattoo laws? He was 16 when he left. He left because gangs threatened his family. His family ran a business in El Salvador. That is "his past". The only thing that makes sense is that he's their citizen, BUT he was not legally allowed to be deported there anyways. It's great that they're eliminating gangs, but they're not doing it through any system I'd like to live in. You can't sacrifice your freedom for safety. That's not how it works, especially in the USA. We have a long history of defending that, and we need to be vigilant, because the Patriot Act IS EXACTLY what everyone said Covid restrictions were going to end up being.
Did he not get numerous cases of due process while he was here? All of which determined the facts that are now being disputed by the left that he was at the least a MS13 gang affiliate. a person that required his wife to get a restraining order? So now he requires more process on top of what he has been given when the order is given?
Serious question. If i enter japan illegally then get caught dealing with a american mafia ring and also beat my wife to the point of needing a order of protection from japans system should i be deported? Seems like alot of resources were used already.
If they return me to america and i am imprisoned why is that a issue for japan to determine how my country of origin desides to deal with me. If anyone feels he should be freed from the prison then by all means fight to petition the gov he is under control of...not ours.
I see the issue but unfortunately a comatosed fool decided to ignore laws to flood our country. Suddenly everyone on one side has found a duty to abide by them and are extremely diligent and orderly ONLY when it comes to a clean up effort on the mess they cheered for. Its a bit ironic to say the least.

I find it pretty hard to listen to people talking about the upcoming economic fallout of decisions a instant after they got finished cheering on the closing of the american economy.

tariffs only increase the cost of goods to us. we can't compete with slave labor so we must compete in other ways. perhaps that's why trump is all about stealing land with valuable resources. when that fails, we need to invest heavily in cutting edge tech and services while preparing a unsurpassed work force. Not easy, but a lot less unsettling than the current approach. which, btw, has an ending no one can predict.
Well i exampled how this is the exact same as other countries who tariff us. This is a tax on their people that conviently results in our industries having a hard time selling over their domestic industries. How is being reciprocal in action considered such a detrement over what they already do besides just polical bias and nervousness of markets? That nervousness comes from ANY changes introduced and if noone can pridict the outcome then we also cant predict the impact being positive or negative. My position is any change is worth it as we are obviously loosing anyways. So why so much resistance to attempt to turn things around. Hope for the best and try your best to buy american just like foriegn markets are reacting and lets see where the dust settles. Deals can evolve so this stern stance isnt as detrimental as some would convey.
As for your solution. Seems extremely short term and standard to what has always been. New tech is great and will give us a boost but will end up becoming watered down and stolen or companies will just outsource labor after using our innovation same as always. Our "unsurpassed" workers will do specialized work here and the rest will be done dirt cheap outside to maximize profits and slap a false "made" in america badge. If i had a idea on how to prevent this long term it would be exactly the same. Major surcharge to be in our huge spend happy american market that would cut or eliminate profits from slave labor making companies rethink the workforce and corporate operation options they have.

It’s a global economy with manufacturing competitors paying subsistence wages. In many countries workers make 5k per year. It’s tough if not impossible to make up for a 10 fold difference in labor costs with tariffs. It’s not gonna work.
the market is heavily influenced by confidence. There’s not much of that surrounding trump. I hope that changes.
So if tariff is too volatile whats the solution? Why do we just accept things like Chinese slave labor and censorship as a normalized "tariff" companies must abide by or other countries protecting their domestic industry against outside markets but we are just suppose to offer free trade to all as is? The only difference is the normalization. Any change results in uncertainty, so i just hope any waves settle over time. People will always scream doom and gloom about them as they sway the boat but they are required to turn it around if you have been gently floating towards a waterfall.

Im not thrilled with the tariff plan. If it was going after particular sectors and hostile countries i think it would be different but going after everyone simultaneously while also creating major uncertainty doesnt sound like a sound strategy, especially in the short term.
At the same time we have heard for decades how US industries must grovel on their knees under Chinese censorship. How in covid we were incapable of supplying basic needs internally and destroyed under lockdowns. Seeing high percentage of foreign industries this country founded driving in our streets while other nations strictly have their own. We are nothing but service sectors and buying other counties garbage on our overbloated credit cards. Not to mention biden kept many of the original tariffs from trump and back then they were screaming doom and gloom over them as they are now.
So what part of the economy mentioned are we pleased with? It doesn't seem sustainable and industries that many here were certain would revolutionize it have crashed and burned our tax money. Should we throw a few more trillion at the charging station industry and green dream sectors that havent given return after a full throttle backing of the last administration?
All i can hope is they know what they are doing. Anyone who thinks this country isnt going to need some drastic changes to make a difference isnt paying attention. Sit back as more companies announce closers and major investments outside our country. Just demand that we just need "them" to pay their fair share to pour more funds into social programs as our debt swallows us whole. the stock market will be nice and steady in the meantime. Sorry kids.

Machines will need mechanics- some.
Office workers??? What office?Electricians- some
Quality will all be handled by Musk, personally
Payroll is already dumb enough to hardly need someone to actually do it- it's friggin numbers...
And as we speak, code monkeys are currently busy inventing algorithms to replace themselves permanently - and those are supposed to be the smart ones...
Doctors- 90% replaceable by automation
Surgeons- same
Lawyers are getting crucified
Smelters - done
Miners - done
Sock weavers - done
Every working driver on the planet - done
Boat Captains- start training, there'll be some heavy competition
Logging, a bit of farming, construction, and creating boutique muffins is the future.
What property will be necessary, and what payroll will remain to tax?
The world is going to evolve, and 'bringing manufacturing back to America' is a long-term joke of a concept. Get ready for joblessness, replaced by automated lunacy.
... and then there's AI... that'll be a future topic to terrorize this board with. )
Well i only ask because i come from a industrial skill trade background. I was in a industry that desperately wanted to move from old machinery to new. From my perspective it was pretty interesting to see how new over engineered machines were just as needy for human intervention.. and definitely more costly to run.
As to not mention specific examples you probably know nothing about ill ask a question? Does your modern car require less manpower then your first? All the sensors, computer operation, blue tooth connected, extra parts and labor to get to? These all require more specialist to design and fix then a simple car that you yourself could maintain back in the day. I could of swore flying self aware cars that order parts and fix themselves was right around the corner by now.
Automation requires everything goes perfect all the time. forever. Any error or change in a system requires human intervention. A single valve on a stack leaks and you need a mechanic to asses. A jamup or error needs a operator to jog, home and reset. A single wire or switch..in the hundreds a machine uses, needs a electrician. Any change required in part or action needs programmers and plc specialists and setups. Maybe one day office, payroll, ordering, saftey and managment will be completely automated but as of now those systems are used as tools that steamline things but require humans to oversee implement and maintain.
IMO We are not eliminating human intervention for a very long time.
decreasing it, yes. Thats true. if automation and high tech was so attactive and in such high demand then why are companies flocking to run to third world countries to begin with? they are not going to beacons of technology areas of the world. They are simply going to places that can exploit HUMAN workers in PLACE of costly machines and automation. If thats true then why would you not be for any effort that supplies that human need, at a modern standard of living, to an american citizen? So Regardless of whether that increases or decreases over time, its better then zero. That is worth not throwing our hands up and pretending the end is near lets all kneel to our robotic overlords and give up on bringing american manufacturing or other jobs back to our country.

Trump's already said he's OK if the US economy goes into a recession- it's all part of the 'painful' plan. A total reverse of what he said would happen, btw.
So what's your plan once we emerge on the other side?
Do you expect manufacturing will return to the United States? I mean like, making socks and digging coal???
Those jobs are not returning- it'll be automated, so I don't know what you think is going to happen, but I'd suggest not banking on a manufacturing job 18 years down the line when the fruits of this idiocy come to fruition.
It will be automated? So american mechanics/office workers/management/electricians/quality/payroll/programmers ect ect can get a job, even if every production position is done by some robots? Not to mention the property and payroll taxes generated?

Who? Trump or Musk?
I give Musk a lot of credit for what he has accomplished. Truly a person of importance in our time. That article I posted was not negative about him, it was more descriptive of his companies incredibly game changing technology.
Trump just inherited wealth and lost it, several times.
You tell me. Either one acomplished a successful buisness and did not need politics to become wealthy, regardless of how many times they lost and earned it back.
In the meantime your career politicians accomplish nothing but garnering votes and rely on the power of their elected position to create the wealth they get.

Im on chi's side on this one. If the country cant get a senate super indefinite policy on the books then what else can a administration do at that point? Thats correct. The answer is to use fed troops to cut the barbed wire fencing Texas erected as a last resort.
After that we need to provide a bit of sanctuary and tax money in blue cities across the country. No!..its so we can keep a eye on them. How can they reinvade if we are watching them closely in the 5 star hotels across the street! Idiots.
We need to have them dependent on tax money so when we are watching them they dont do anything that involves leaving the couch. That couch is crucial to the plan. Developing a app and flying them in will make them really easy to catch later on and has a 100% rate on stopping re-entry.
Finally, dont read a graph on any of this B.S. so its easier to agree dumb MAGA policies were ineffective and if they were. it was covid.
Also, dont look into anything on covid.
