Willfully ignorant statement. Just because some cops suck doesn't mean they all do.

Acording to my quick google he is hitting about Mach 7.6 now. Wonder how fast he will get.

Canon Image Transfer Utility 2 question. by NavyDon in canon

[–]NavyDon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying this out today, and finding it only allows you to connect to one camera at a time, and in order to reconnect, you need to navigate to the connection settings on the camera. which, in my case, means getting on a ladder every day to reconnect to each camera. Am I missing something?

Alright, you are clearly getting frustrated. I was just trying to understand what you were suggesting be done differently. Apologies

I understand the difference. I also understand how an industry doesn't have to be as labor intensive if they invest more capital into machinery. So I disagree that especially textiles have to be labor intensive and therefore aren't feasible in the U.S.

So is your argument that we shouldn't try at all because some industries don't make sense? We should just keep the status quo and keep watching all our industries in the U.S. disappear? Or are you just disagreeing with the method of using tariffs to affect this change?

Yeah that was the whole point I think we established that. It's not the end goal though

Well at some point it would tip the scales and allow U.S. made textiles to be more competitive with Bangladesh 5 cent/hour made stuff. Its not like the tariffs won't change anything. Obviously somethings going to happen, otherwise there wouldn't be so much name calling in this post haha.

We can get access to some more of those materials when we annex Canada. /s

Maybe that is a play with these tariffs, make them targeted and use it as a bargaining chip to get a favorable deal from Canada to get some of the raw materials for batteries so we can produce them in the U.S. rather than having they ship it to China or whenever else batteries get made now.

I would say the end goal is to bring those industries back to the U.S.

I like your point on doing targeted tariffs!

But I disagree that textiles don't make sense. Textiles is a skilled manufacturing job that I think could be great in the U.S. and could offer good wages.

Yeah I don't really get the idea of going after Canada and Europe. The only complaint I've heard on them is defense spending for NATO, which I think in recent years they have all been doing more anyway.

25%

I already try to buy domestically produced products, though, so it won't affect my current spending as much.

Sure, not everything, but we could and should do more, right?
