They'll serve as a nice example for the others

They do what they fucking want, fuck off

I bet costco will love when China expropriate them.

Because he isn't a king and his tweets aren't legally binding

He told them to find a manufacturing alternative to China you fucking idiot, he didn tell them to stop selling to the Chinks. This is an example of America making money off of the Chinks for a change, this is what Trump wants. Stupid fucking leaf.

an "american" company, moving to China, to sell the chinese, lots of "american" products, made by chinese, in China.

peak capitalism

>yfw China forces Costco to take a pro-Chinese stance or get all their Chinese assets expropriated, which is exactly what happened to Lotte Mart, a South Korean retailer that was forced exit China after its parent company sold some of its land holdings to the S.K. government to make space for a new joint S.K.-U.S. military installation there

this

Crucial to my ass.

For the most part, the "alternative" can't even fill a fraction of China's manufacturing capability. Vietnam, Mexico, India don't have anywhere near the workforce size, training, or logistics to handle what China can.

I don't think most people comprehend the scale of China's manufacturing capability. It will take decades for others to catch up.

Because Trump ain't shit.

They are literally ants

That's a good thing. The OBJECTIVE is to get others to catch up. We're facing an inevitable resource war and you don't want it to be "those who have factories" vs "those who don't". The entire trade war is about preventing the rest of the world from being dependent on China to save them from eventually being conquered. They're too stupid to see this or they are ruled by bad actors.

yknow, opening a store in china is different than outsourcing to china

Costco is literally more powerful than China

It's so fucking crowded. Looks like someone took an amusement park crowd and handed everyone a shopping cart.

more like they said on communist radio go buy a cart full of junk at Costco to be patriotic.

most companies will be and are currently moving further south of china to places like vietnam.

>The percentage of China-leaving businesses surveyed by quality control and supply chain auditor QIMA was 80% for American companies and 67% for those based in the European Union.
>QIMA has more than just anecdotal evidence. Demand for their China-based audits dropped by 13% as mainland manufacturers are either losing their foreign clients faster due to costs associated with tariffs or are relocating part of their manufacturing out of China to avoid those tariffs.

It's not going to end well. This will only train the Chinese the business practice, and they'll soon compete Costco out of China.

They can enjoy their new tax penalties.
Sure, this will,make their products vastly more expensive in the American market but it's not like the American consumer has other ootions right?
Right?

>US company takes money from Chinese people

The funny thing is, the Chinese is doing the same. They're opening factories in Vietnam, USA, Africa, etc... Because of rising Chinese wages and they're transitioning out of the manufacturing based economy.

Jesus you are stupid.
India alone can absorb the manufacturing potential of china with western investment

No, it's about a reality tv star trying to keep things he doesn't want in the news by filling the cycle full of other things.
The tariffs are completely incoherent and do nothing to actually address the issue of the decline of the western manufacturing base.
A genuine effort would include the rest of the west.
This is pablum to placate idiots such as yourself who start from a feeling and work backwards to justify it, you know nothing about this subject and are simply being a tribal shill and regurgitating simplistic idioms on cue as you've been conditioned to do.
You are why nothing will change.

Because the chinese version of CostCo still isn't competitive enough, once it is CostCo will be kicked out of China

>expropriate
clasico pendejo creyendose las mamadas que dicen los idiotas aqui, china es mucho mas capitalista que cualquier pais en europa o los judios unidos

India does not having the port capacity, shipping industry, nor the road development of China, much less the workforce training. India also has the same protectionist policy as China.

> Costco selling cheap chink shit to cheap chinks.
Hopefully with a "Taste of America" premium.

In capitalist societies people get excited for the openning of new entertainment sources.
In communist societies people get excited for the openning of new food sources.
Sure does encourage one to contemplate

India still has sub-80% literacy rate and that's after fudging the numbers. Most Indians literally can't be trained to work in factories.

The fuck?
"order"?
I know you Leafs are cucked, but holy shit.

>Hi I know absolutely nothing about modern supply chains but I enjoy typing anyways
Nobody has anything even close to China's supply chains for electronics, nor does anybody have any plan to come close to matching it, let alone surpassing it.
Nor will they if they're not forced to, and nobody will be forced to when easily mollified retard such as yourself will; simply slap your fins for any old fish that is tossed into your mouth.

In other words, the tariffs are working.
Rather than deal with the economic uncertainty most businesses it seems would rather just move to safer markets

You're supposed to sage the leafs. Not encourage them.

>shilling for Chinese interests
Gee, I wonder what ethnicity you could be.

Does Costco have any white members? All I ever see there are various species of sand niggers and red dot Indians.

> China is crucial to American companies

Mfw apparently globohomo corporate monoliths are humble family run small town businesses.

>Chinese market is crucial to American companies.
It's really not. It's crucial to globalism.

Corporations are the enemy of the people

They can't get enough of that sideways chunk pussy.

cope more MIGAfag

well at least all of the products they sell were made there too

Your leader is a fake eye brow having, pink sock wearing, Muslim onahole, dancing, crying, commie faggot.

It wasn't an order; it was a warming.

Costco has been working a very long time to work into China's market. They probably didn't want to give up the many years of work.

fuck off and fuck canadians
have a tank

Based

Pretty much this.

Yeah, what's your point?

man your Spanish is absolutely disgusting. I hate the way indians speak.

Opening a store in China isn't what Trump was talking about.

This is sort of the reverse. This is an American company selling INTO china, not a US company selling goods made in China

How the fuck do companies keep falling for this shit though?

Chinks only showed up for the free samples and cheap toilet paper.

cuz them niggas be starving, at least CostCo globally affords itself some integrity

Why isn't Trump obeying President Trump's order to find an "alternative to China?"

I would imagine that many companies executives live in a bubble of information that have advisors and public relations people on board, who help guide them with making decisions based on "market trends" and "public sentiment," that are based more on statistics rather than observation of society, and this often leads to foolish business decisions. I would also imagine that every time anyone even thinks about bucking the trend, that is a boss, CEO, w/e, that there is some opportunistic lefty fuck just waiting to use the "that's racist" card to try and steal their position out from under them too. It's a vicious circle.

The same reason why Hollywood cater to the chinks. And how the Chinese release alone can make or break a film.

They have a huge consumer class now.

Guess I hit the nail on the head.

Maybe ten years ago, if you were to go to WalMart, 90% of the shit said made in China, but today its maybe 10%.

The Chinese were probably in a rush to buy non poisonous baby formula

Reminder the chinks need to import food to feed 25% of their population.
They have less than ten years of clean water left, and their entire country is now a polluted mess
They are at least 100 trillion in debt
They face an impossible transition when their boomers retire and their economy must violently contract to the smaller population

Chinas totally fucked, all they can do is print money to pay losers to shill for them

Films are usually seen once, but you use shops again and again.

If you hand over your tech, and then get kicked out, you only had a limited access to that market, and lost all opportunity to hold your cards and force the other to come to you.

Companies are opening in China, handing over their R&D, the Chinks replicate and undercut with government backing, then the company gets thrown the fuck out.

You're suggesting the short-term is THAT enticing?

Because capitalism is inherently globalist and anti-nationalist

That complete bullshit.

>approximately 80 percent of Walmart’s suppliers still located in China

That 3 years ago. Even on Amazon, the US biggest retailer by far, most of their goods are unbranded Chinese shit.

Films can get banned by the Chinese government, but they still cater to it anyways, because of the potential for big money.

Profit is king, to these businesses.

I would unironically serve in a Costco army to enforce permanent sales rights to their business model. They have a cap on product profit margins and they make most of their money off their memberships. Shareholders hate this but customers love it. It's the perfect form of capitalism, self regulating.
