How did #NAFTA make a whole bunch of people in the US desperately poor, while it made a whole bunch of people south of the US desperately poor, too?

Elektromobilių revoliucija įvyko, lūžio taškas praeitas. BYD išleido elektromobilį, kuris kainuoja 7700 dolerių - dvigubai pigesnis nei analogiškas benzininis.

Transportui pereinant ant elektros, mažės naftos paklausa - ir tai labai gerai Lietuvai

Former Assistant Secretary of Defense Chas #Freeman criticized the Trump administration for unclear trade negotiation goals, particularly with #Japan, where officials couldn't specify #tariff objectives. He noted broken agreements, like the #NAFTA replacement, harmed US credibility and discouraged countries from engaging with #Trump. Freeman argued China preferred to "wait [America] out" due to unclear objectives and poor compliance, undermining Trump's dealmaking reputation.

No Globalization Without Representation: U.S. Activists and World Inequality
Paul Adler
University of Pennsylvania Press

"How consumer and environmental activists became significant players in U.S. and world politics

Amid the mass protests of the 1960s, another, less heralded political force arose: public interest progressivism. Led by activists like Ralph Nader, organizations of lawyers and experts worked "inside the system." They confronted corporate power and helped win major consumer and environmental protections. By the late 1970s, some public interest groups moved beyond U.S. borders to challenge multinational corporations. This happened at the same time that neoliberalism, a politics of empowerment for big business, gained strength in the U.S. and around the world.

No Globalization Without Representation is the story of how consumer and environmental activists became significant players in U.S. and world politics at the twentieth century's close. NGOs like Friends of the Earth and Public Citizen helped forge a progressive coalition that lobbied against the emerging neoliberal world order and in favor of what they called "fair globalization." From boycotting Nestlé in the 1970s to lobbying against NAFTA to the "Battle of Seattle" protests against the World Trade Organization in the 1990s, these groups have made a profound mark.

This book tells their stories while showing how public interest groups helped ensure that a version of liberalism willing to challenge corporate power did not vanish from U.S. politics. Public interest groups believed that preserving liberalism at home meant confronting attempts to perpetuate conservative policies through global economic rules. No Globalization Without Representation also illuminates how professionalized organizations became such a critical part of liberal activism..."

#Trump claims that experts have been wrong about #NAFTA, #China & his first-term #tariffs & that they will be wrong again about his current trade actions. 🙄

Futures on the S&P 500, which allow investors to trade when exchanges are not officially open, began to tumble after Trump started outlining the tariff rates. The index had ended the day higher, but futures are now down more than 1%.

I'm not sure I understand your understanding...

Essentially 100% of all Canadian goods being sold into the US market were already "complying with the USMCA". And the US had exactly the access to the Canadian market that the USMCA specifies.

i.e. there was nothing that Canada was non-compliant with. But we got hit with tariffs *explicitly banned* by the USMCA itself.

The USA is the only one who was noncompliant with our trade agreement, which if you'll remember, Mango Mussolini was extremely proud to boast that he negotiated himself, before recently saying whoever negotiated it was an idiot.
