If that’s a trade war, then we are all losing one to our local grocery store.

Well... Who cares if the Trade War hurts FedEx anyway... Even our own employees want The Trade War despite it threatening our own company. What really matters is that our elected politicians win their respective urination contests.

Barista economics. All your steel workers can work at Starbucks.

Because we're not Americans... My vote will reflect this and did. I switched to a different party over Free Trade and this issue threatening MY job - the most important one.

Trade Wars have been very damaging to America's economy every time we've tried them. The economy was roaring and this is just the start of The Trade War. Go look at what started The Great Depression... Was that good for America? No. How many BS manufacturing jobs would we need to replace the tax revenue of 1 FedEx 777 Captain?

Hopefully we knock this garbage off because it's not just damaging FedEx. Go look at soy farmers, pig farmers and even GM employees. It's damaging consumers and affecting all of our retirements. I can't think of anyone it's actually helped.

I get it that you won't change your mind but you might when this starts hitting us harder.

Just to be clear, you think we have free trade with whom? The market crashed because of Fed Policy. They had loose money for eight years and that inflated the stock market. They are worried that since we now have full employment inflation will kick in so they are trying to slow down the economy. Idiotic but looks like they slowed it way down. We have a better deal with Europe. We have a better deal with Canada and Mexico. We need a better deal with China.

You are truely blind, bias or delusional. You’re making excuses for poor policies just like you make excuses for our crappy TA in 2015. SMFH

So you think it was a coincidence the market crashed a thousand points in 24 hours after the FED boosted the rate. You are a booboo head. Na na na. I noticed you didn’t answer the question as to who we have free trade with. I notice you also didn’t refute my other points, you just called me names. I take it back you are an imature poopy head.
