Indeed, the US foreign policy including global economic policy is indeed â leveling the field â. Like a wrecking ball and a D9 dozer leveling a playground for a parking lot. For the first time, a country is tariffing the entire planet. America has applied a global tariff to everyone. The Emperor believes every country has been unfair regarding trade with the US. Our duly elected Emperor decided that to reduce our trade imbalance, the US taxpayer will be happy to pay even more for commodities we do not produce, to teach the globe, a financial lesson. And for the few things manufactured domestically that we do export to, we will jack up those prices by 145% in the case of China, to teach them a lesson that you just canât get an airliner anywhere, it has to be Boeing, and they will be walking with out Boeing. Of course Boeing can absorb this airliner takeaway financially in the meantime because the Emperor can sell these unobtainable airliners to other tariffed countries, who the Emperor thinks will buy at a reduced tariff, the now painted accumulating Boeings from China. Yes, while paying higher domestic prices, he thinks the US consumer will live with more layoffs, corporate bankruptcies because this is a necessary economic pain we must endure as patriotic citizens to make America great again. After all, we have been continually taken advantage of prior to this âawakeningâ. Time to teach the planet a lesson in economics. After all, Airbus, Embraer, Tupolov, Tecnam, and the do-called Chinese âfledglingâ aviation industry are all inferior to Boeing and its technology so much so, they have no capacity to produce a competitive product. Therefore, itâs global US compliance or no airliners for anyone. Global compliance means everybody will have to pay more of varying degrees for unobtainable airliners. Some more than others.
This fanciful, bombastic hubris and flat out arrogance is another mile marker on our current pathway of technological, economic, and moral decline. At least we are an equal opportunity destroyer as we treat neighbors with equal audacity as our Emperorâs personally chosen enemiesâŚwhich, in this case, is everyone else outside our borders.
I am sure global boardrooms are all breathlessly negotiating â dealsâ to overnight, start digging holes for Airbus, Embraer, Tupelov, and Chinese aviation manufacturing facilities in the US to level the airliner playing field.
The Chinese have got this down to a science. They already own Cirrus, Diamond, Mooney, and Continental, without having to build any infrastructure. They bought what no US investors wanted when they faced bankruptcy. Boeing could shortly become the next Chinese aviation acquisition making it the airliner version of Cirrus/Continental saga. They already have Chinese manufactured and flying regional airliners supporting their domestic passengers and national economy. Why not Boeing for the BRICS nationâs consumption.
Yeah Big Don, you will be teaching the planetâŚdonât mess with the US! At this time the remaining global airliner manufacturing companies will take you up on your offer and not invest into America until Boeing dies a quick financial death, then teach you a lesson when they buy it at the next aviation fire sale. At least there will be chance skilled American workers might get their jobs back.
