I guess the AUKUS pact to sell Australia secondhand Virginia-class nuclear submarines, and the joint development of new SSN-AUKUS  submarines, does not exist in your world.

 

So Australia parting with $1.07 billion already was for nothing.

 

The last time I looked, nuclear submarines are classed as warships, and quite advanced ones.

The USA does sell second hand ships.

You called another poster a liar. You said the USA does not sell warships.

 

Obviously, you struggle to admit you are wrong. Bye now.

Did Yagoda hack your AN account?

No he is a guy on the other side of the political divide, essentially on your side, telling you that posting its Trumps fault every time you get a hangnail is a bit much.

A post using a derogatory nickname to belittle or mock individuals with differing political views and a reply has been removed.

You lie.  The USA does not build warships for other countries. 

 

Because of laws like the Arms Export Control Act and security concerns, advanced U.S. warships (like destroyers and submarines) are not built for foreign governments.

 

Okay, its all over the news for technology and war fare industry, so?

Again for those of you who are on the short bus. So what, its nothing new.

You celebrate what you think is something new, it just makes people look foolish. This has been going on for 60 yrs, subsidies will pay for these crops.

Though you'd have to know the tax code, just like the farmers do.

The Aukus contract was for the UK to build the Submarine for Australia built at BAE Submarine systems here where I live in Barrow in Furness. We are the only ones capable of building nuclear submarines. The only part the US will deliver will be the platform which is the Missile System such as Trident or the Earlier Polaris missile system. Norway has just ordered 6 new Frigates to be constructed i believe at Govern on the Clyde. American may sell decomissined frigates or destoyers to other poorer countrys but not to the Royal Navy in the UK.

You really have a problem reading isn't it, or is it a pure state of denial you're in?

 

I posted links to articles about Trump CANCELLING those subsidies.

 

Assuming that you understand the meaning of the word cancel, though not sure as I never met you, how do farmers make claims when the subsidies not exist any more, courtesy of your dear leader?

No kidding, thats what it said ?  Huh, imagine that. Also imagine that USAID is not the only way they get subsidies, of course I'm assuming you have the ability to read and understand, well, much of anything really would be an improvement.

Its your hatred of Trump that makes you blind

You said that subsidies paid for the crops. So how do they pay when they are cancelled. Keep going Frank

US manufacturing activity contracts for sixth straight month in August: 'It's survival'

 

One contact in the electrical equipment industry told the ISM they've raised prices by 24% so far, but these increases will only offset tariffs, meaning their margins won't actually improve as a result.

"In two rounds of layoffs, we have let go of about 15 percent of our U.S. workforce," this contact said. "These are high-paying and high-skilled roles: engineers, marketing, design teams, finance, IT and operations. The administration wants manufacturing jobs in the U.S., but we are losing higher-skilled and higher-paying roles. With no stability in trade and economics, capital expenditures spending and hiring are frozen. It’s survival."

"Cost increases are being passed on to customers via widespread hikes to factory gate prices," Williamson added.
