Socialist President Clamps Down on Auto Price Increases

[placeholder]

 

President Trump convened CEOs of some of the country’s top automakers for a call earlier this month, he issued a warning: They better not raise car prices because of tariffs.

Trump told the executives that the White House would look unfavorably on such a move, leaving some of them rattled and worried they would face punishment if they increased prices, people with knowledge of the call said.

Nationalist Socialist President?

Price control. That's right out of the socialist handbook. The US is not a capitalist democracy anymore. It's run by a king with socialist leanings and his court is packed exclusively by unwitting jesters.

I don't know what the profit margins are on car sales in the US but if they're not allowed to raise prices they're bound to be going out of business. Great for American car companies in the short term but in the long term it's a disaster. 

And for the American consumer this all sucks. Welcome to the new reality; The Nationalist-Socialist Disunited States of America.

Please chaps, let's call it out for what it really is at base:

 

"Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy. Opposed to Marxism, democracy, anarchism, pluralism, free markets, egalitarianism, communism, liberalism, and socialism, fascism is at the far right of the traditional left–right spectrum."

What fun you Americans are going to have.

Kudos to Trump for attacking corporate greed and looking out for Americans interests. Lucky America woke up and didnt vote for democrats and their holy trinity of big pharma, big corporations, big weapons manufacturers.

Go Trump!!

Efficiency pains? Is that the new MAGA euphemism for going tits-up?

He's going right for the jugular of big business. That's why he's pushing for a big cut in corporate tax rates from 21% to 15%. He's going to kill them with kindness.

I'll do even better. I'll quote you a guy you may have heard of who says price controls are "full communist"

 

Donald Trump on Saturday ripped Vice President Kamala Harris’ plan to slap socialist price controls on groceries, saying she’s gone “full Communist.”

The Republican presidential nominee compared economic proposals to reduce inflation that “Comrade Kamala” announced a day earlier – which includes cracking down on price gouging – to infamously failed communist plans pushed in Venezuela and the former Soviet Union.

“She wants to destroy our country. After causing catastrophic inflation, Comrade Kamala announced that she wants to institute socialist price controls,” Trump said.

Actually, the case is even worse. Harris wanted to stop price gouging. But Trump wants to stop auto manufacturers from pricing in the very real costs s caused by his protectionist polcies.

I don't have to. Donald Trump has already offered his evaluation. Why isn't that good enough for you?
