U.S. Trade Policy: Populist Anger or Out-of-Touch Elites?
Post Date: 2016-05-16 10:19:47 by Willie Green

Just how disconnected is the business elite and Washington policy class from the way most Americans actually experience the U.S. economy? The presidential primary campaigns of both political parties have exposed widespread voter anger over U.S. global trade policies. In response, hardly a day has recently gone by without the New York Times, the Washington Post and other defenders of the status quo lecturing their readers on why unregulated foreign trade is good for them. The ultimate conclusion is always the same – that voters should leave complicated issues like this to those intellectually better qualified to deal with them. So much for democracy.

Donald Trump Walks Back Tax Plan, Saying 'It's Going to Be Negotiated'

As Donald Trump pivots to the general election battle, he's already walking back his tax plan, the most specific policy proposal he has released during the campaign. "By the time it gets negotiated, it's going to be a different plan," Trump told George Stephanopoulos on ABC News' "This Week." In Trump’s tax plan, the wealthiest individuals would get a tax break, with the top tax rate dropping from 39.6 percent to 25 percent. But when pressed if he wants taxes on the wealthy to go up or down, he predicted that the top rate would be higher than the plan says. "On my plan they're going down. But by the time it's negotiated, they'll go ...

Macleod explains, “I think the most important point is actually the dollar has turned. The panic move into the dollar by miners and producers of raw material . . . was driving the dollar up. That has now ceased. China has now started buying those raw materials, base metals, oil and so on and so forth. So, the result is the commodity crisis is over.

Wages of Labour

Wages are determined through the antagonistic struggle between capitalist and worker. Victory goes necessarily to the capitalist. The capitalist can live longer without the worker than can the worker without the capitalist. Combination among the capitalists is customary and effective; workers’ combination is prohibited and painful in its consequences for them. Besides, the landowner and the capitalist can make use of industrial advantages to augment their revenues; the worker has neither rent nor interest on capital to supplement his industrial income. Hence the intensity of the competition among the workers. Thus only for the workers is the separation of capital, landed property, and ...

In 1 Out Of Every 5 American Families, Nobody Has A Job By Michael Snyder, on April 24th, 2016 Family Silhouette - Public Domain 2If nobody is working in one out of every five U.S. families, then how in the world can the unemployment rate be close to 5 percent as the Obama administration keeps insisting? The truth, of course, is that the U.S. economy is in far worse condition than we are being told. Last week, I discussed the fact that the Federal Reserve has found that 47 percent of all Americans would not be able to come up with $400 for an unexpected visit to the emergency room without borrowing it or selling something. But Barack Obama and his minions never bring up that number. Nor do ...

Most Americans may not realize this, but this is something that the Federal Reserve has actually been tracking for several years now. And according to the Fed, an astounding 47 percent of all Americans could not come up with $400 to pay for an emergency room visit without borrowing it or selling something. Various surveys that I have talked about in the past have found that more than 60 percent of all ...

Civil rights activist Harriet Tubman will replace slaveholding former President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, becoming the first African-American woman to be featured on the face of U.S. paper currency in more than a century. The U.S. Treasury will announce the changes on Wednesday, spokesman Rob Runyan said in a phone interview. He declined to elaborate. The decision to replace Jackson, a slaveowner, with Tubman, who was born a slave and went on to become an anti-slavery crusader, follows months of public outreach by the Treasury Department regarding which woman should be featured on a bill. The department had announced in June that it would feature a woman on the $10 bill in place ...

Before we look at that complete series, here is an overlay of the two (Total Private and Production/Nonsupervisory) for the overlapping timeframe. The objective is to see the relative correlation between the two. Now let's step back and view the complete Production/Nonsupervisory series, which dates from January 1964 (giving us a January 1965 start for the YoY data). At first glance the chart looks horrible. We are currently at a level below the ...

Unfortunately, U.S. industrial decline is a long-run phenomenon and will not be reversed by short-term fixes. ...
Freight Truck Orders Plummeted 48% in January

Orders for new big rigs plunged in January, as trucking companies eyeing weak shipping demand held back from investing in fleets. Just 18,200 new trucks were ordered last month, down 48% from a year earlier and marking the second-lowest monthly total since 2012, ACT Research said Wednesday. The data dashed equipment makers’ hopes that relatively strong December orders would carry over into the new year. Instead, trucking companies are canceling expansion plans and postponing trade-ins for their older vehicles. They fear that new trucks will sit idle if lower-than-expected retail sales over the holidays and signs of contraction in the manufacturing sector translate into a sluggish ...

West Texas Intermediate futures, the U.S. benchmark, sank below $30 a barrel on Tuesday for the first time since 2003. Actual barrels of Saudi Arabian crude shipped to Asia are even cheaper, at $26 -- the lowest since early 2002 once inflation is factored in and near levels seen before the turn of the millennium.

There is a spirited argument among economists about whether the much-delayed “Obama Recovery” has arrived, and whether it’s anything to celebrate if so. A real recovery, sufficient to begin healing the enormous damage to our workforce and pull government debt out of its death spiral, would be obvious. We wouldn’t have economists peering at spreadsheets with electron microscopes to detect it. Why should anyone celebrate an economy that leaves most workers with declining wages and a growing burden of debt? Even left-wingers agree, uncomfortably, that “income inequality” got much worse under Obama, as the rich got richer, while the poor… didn’t. ...
Alaska governor proposes income tax to help plug budget gap

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Alaska Gov. Bill Walker is proposing instituting a personal income tax for the first time in 35 years as the oil-dependent state looks to plug a multibillion-dollar budget deficit amid chronically low prices. In laying out his budget plan Wednesday, Walker also proposed using the fund that provides annual checks to most Alaskans to generate a stream of cash to help finance state government. The plan would change how dividends are calculated and mean lower checks, at least initially — with 2016 payouts about $1,000 less than this year's. Alaska isn't alone among oil-producing states to experience hard times as oil prices stay low. But unlike states ...

Congress is hoping to close out its session and depart for the holidays, but two major items remaining on its agenda are standing in the way: the omnibus bill and a tax break extenders package. The current government spending bill is set to expire on December 11, but congressional leaders have already indicated that its highly unlikely a budget agreement will be reached before then, setting the stage for yet another potential shutdown. Lawmakers have stated that a stopgap spending bill will be passed to keep the federal government open after Friday, and will serve to buy more time for talks on the omnibus. But according to White House spokesman Josh Earnest, President Obama will not sign ...

The interventionists will do anything to prevent Americans from seeing that their foreign policies are perpetuating terrorism and inspiring others to seek to harm us. The neocons know that when it is understood that blowback is real – that people seek to attack us not because we are good and free but because we bomb and occupy their countries – their stranglehold over foreign policy will begin to slip. That is why each time there is an event like the killings in Paris earlier this month, they rush to the television stations to terrify Americans into agreeing to even more bombing, more occupation, more surveillance at home, and more curtailment of our civil liberties. They tell us ...

Inequality in South Africa: A Post-Apartheid Analysis July 7, 2015 - 1:05pm | admin By Alireza Saniei-Pour Twenty years after South Africa’s transition to democracy, inequality continues to be a major concern in the country, with stark contrasts between the haves and have nots. Troublingly, despite policy reforms aimed at reducing inequality, South Africa still has a two-tiered economy, and lacks the “stepladder” positions that allow for the growth of the middle class. Current evidence shows that increasing wage differentials between people at the 90th and 50th percentiles are driving this persistent inequality. Contrary to the popular belief that inequality is growing ...
