That's kind of crude for a Garrison cartoon. But then again there isn't much to animate in a NPC face.

Perhaps if Mr Koch would be ready to pay more to his workers, then he would not have to employ illegals. But then he would not be able to earn $GAZILLION profit.

The economy is doing amazing. Unemployment at half century lows. Dems ignore this, and make up fantasies about Russia and the KKK.

Deficits are an important part, but not all of it. The other quite important component is that due to ORANGEMANBAD and general paralysis of Federal power structures there are very few new regulations. Businesses feel more comfortable knowing that they will not be hit with new, random laws generated by brain-dead politicians.
This great economy is a nearly linear continuation with what happened the previous 5 years, that were paying over one trillion deficits per year for.
It's not worth it. Sometimes spending less, having a recession, clearing out the excess would be better for the economy.

Prob depends on which industries we are talking about. Oil/fracking is pretty happy. Have not talked to farmers lately, they may think differently.

Better Trump tweeting than Obama introducing new regulations, I'd say.
risk of his tariff policies

Notice the conflagration of "ILLEGAL" with legal immigrant. Not wanting a unmitigated flood of illegals does not make one against all immigration. This straw man meme is pathetic.

Anti-Tariff Fucktrards don't understand why they can't get a job making a "Living Wage" while looking at that fucking graph either. Instead they push for the same old bull shit of a "minimum wage" because the dumbasses can't negotiate their own pay correctly or they accept doing work that isn't worth much to do in the first place. Then they feel like they should be able to make enough to live on and fight for that "living wage" to be applied to their woe is me minimum wage job. Fucktards, the lot of them...
Dems ignore this
Trump Cucks ignore that we're running deficits over a $trillion for this:
Are they the manufacturing jobs that Trump promised ?
Sadly the multiplier effect is not what it used to be, it's not worth the effect hey get, but it's still substantial. Any idiot is going to look good in that office with deficits that large (as long as the media is pretending it doesn't matter - which they won't do when a democrat is in office).

What amazes me is that there are people that think tariffs will undo that. IT's been understood for many decades that the best that will do is cause inflation,
Actually, true costs of goods. A nation of free men and responsible environmental laws should not be outsourcing production to nations whose sole competitive advantage is use of slave labor and lax pollution laws.

The United States, and not Mexico or Venezuela, became a superpower because of Tariffs. As did Germany, South Korea, and Japan.
Lack of Tariffs ruined Free Trade Britain, which industrialized because of Tariffs as well as a ban of exporting Fuller's Earth and Wool.
What amazes me is that there are people that think tarrifs will undo that. IT's been understood for many decades that the best that will do is cause inflation, where our pay goes up almost as much as the cost of living. I guess that's good for highly leveraged investors. But everyone else will be hosed royally.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_System_(economic_plan)
The Great Thing about Southern Secession was that it finally allowed the American System to fully deploy without resistance for Rich Landlords, causing a huge boom in the US Economy.
Rich Landlords opposing tariffs and wanting cheaper, better goods from Europe rather than protect and develop native industry is why Mexico industrialized very slowly between 1800-1990.
Please point me to some reading you can find explaining the causal relationship between tariffs and becoming a super power.

What amazes me is that democrats and some republicans want to bring in and/or allow in enormous numbers MORE of unskilled people. In fact, the anti-Trumpers seem to want to make the USA a beacon for unskilled people.
Nearly everyone understands that cheaper labor in a global economy is the reason that unskilled labor is not paid well in this country relative to our cost of living.
