"American Empire Is in Decline": Economist Richard Wolff on Trump's Trade War & Tariffs
譯文簡(jiǎn)介
隨著特朗普總統(tǒng)最終公布他的全球關(guān)稅計(jì)劃——對(duì)所有進(jìn)口商品設(shè)定 10% 的基線關(guān)稅，并顯然根據(jù)個(gè)別國(guó)家與美國(guó)的貿(mào)易差額進(jìn)一步提高關(guān)稅——我們的嘉賓理查德·沃爾夫 （Richard Wolff） 等經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家警告說(shuō)，這將對(duì)美國(guó)消費(fèi)者產(chǎn)生嚴(yán)重的經(jīng)濟(jì)影響，并導(dǎo)致經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退。沃爾夫說(shuō)，特朗普政府的關(guān)稅戰(zhàn)略是出于一種非歷史的“將美國(guó)視為受害者的觀念”，盡管“我們一直是過(guò)去 50 年經(jīng)濟(jì)財(cái)富的最大受益者之一，尤其是對(duì)頂層人士而言”。為了應(yīng)對(duì)世界其他地區(qū)不斷增長(zhǎng)的經(jīng)濟(jì)財(cái)富和隨之而來(lái)的美國(guó)霸權(quán)的衰落，特朗普和他的盟友在絕望中“打擊其他人”，否認(rèn)結(jié)束美帝國(guó)的統(tǒng)治?！癧它] 不會(huì)奏效，”Wolff 說(shuō)。

It wasnt 'foreigners' who moved industrial production to the far east. It was American capital looking for abundant coal and no regulation of pollution and no minimum wages
把工業(yè)生產(chǎn)轉(zhuǎn)移到遠(yuǎn)東的并不是“外國(guó)人”，而是美國(guó)資本——它們追逐的是豐富的煤炭資源、無(wú)污染監(jiān)管和低廉的勞動(dòng)力成本。
The United States is like the Titanic. Too big to turn, too slow to react, in denial about sinking, and there aren't enough lifeboats for every passenger except the 1% ultra rich.
美國(guó)就像泰坦尼克號(hào)：體量太大難以轉(zhuǎn)向，反應(yīng)遲緩不愿認(rèn)命，而救生艇只夠1%的超級(jí)富豪逃生。
The US playing the victim is ridiculous.
美國(guó)裝受害者的樣子簡(jiǎn)直荒謬。
It's definitely a perspective that's gaining traction in some circles. The argument often goes that these aggressive trade policies are a symptom of a nation trying to hold onto its dominance in a changing global landscape, sometimes in ways that ultimately weaken it
這種觀點(diǎn)在某些圈子里確實(shí)越來(lái)越流行：激進(jìn)的貿(mào)易政策像是一個(gè)國(guó)家在全球化變局中死守霸權(quán)的掙扎，而這種掙扎反而會(huì)削弱自身。
Tax American billionaires, leave American consumers alone.
該被征稅的是美國(guó)億萬(wàn)富翁，而不是普通消費(fèi)者。
By “make America wealthy again” he really means “make HIMSELF (and his billionaire buddies) wealthier”, at the expense of 90% of the population.
所謂“讓美國(guó)再次富裕”，實(shí)際是“讓他自己和富豪朋友們更富”——代價(jià)是犧牲90%的普通人。
Truman’s Farewell Address. January 15, 1953. Excerpt regarding the mistakes the US made that lead to WW2:
“…we withdrew from world affairs. We failed to act in concert with other peoples against aggression. We helped to kill a League of Nations, and we built up tariff barriers that strangled world trade.” If you don't learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it.
杜魯門(mén)1953年告別演說(shuō)中反思美國(guó)二戰(zhàn)前的錯(cuò)誤：“…我們退出國(guó)際事務(wù)，未能聯(lián)合他國(guó)抵抗侵略，扼殺了國(guó)際聯(lián)盟，又用關(guān)稅壁壘窒息全球貿(mào)易。” 不吸取歷史教訓(xùn)，注定重蹈覆轍。
All of these problems result from an economy that is unstable due to a number of uncertainties, such as housing concerns, foreclosures, worldwide swings, and the pandemic's aftermath. To restore stability and spur growth, all sectors must give urgent attention to rising inflation, slow growth, and trade disruptions.
當(dāng)前經(jīng)濟(jì)動(dòng)蕩源于多重不確定性：住房危機(jī)、法拍激增、全球波動(dòng)、疫情余震。要重振經(jīng)濟(jì)，必須緊急應(yīng)對(duì)通脹加劇、增長(zhǎng)遲滯和貿(mào)易中斷。
I was in the garment biz in NYC for 40 years watched my merchandise that was manufactured here go overseas. No one stole our businesses… we gave them away. Just ask Sam Walton!
我在紐約服裝業(yè)干了40年，親眼看著本地生產(chǎn)的商品流向海外。沒(méi)人搶走我們的產(chǎn)業(yè)…是我們自己拱手相讓。不信去問(wèn)山姆·沃爾頓！
This day will be remembered for the biggest disaster that any leader of a country can do. Trump is an economic disaster
這一天將被銘記為國(guó)家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人能制造的最大災(zāi)難——特朗普就是場(chǎng)經(jīng)濟(jì)浩劫。
Trump, telling the world he doesn't understand economics, without telling the world he doesn't understand economics.
特朗普用行動(dòng)向世界宣告他不懂經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)，盡管他嘴上從不說(shuō)。
Thank you for your Educative videos... If there is one thing I have learned in recent months it is to remain calm, especially when it comes to investments in cryptocurrencies. Learn not to sell in a panic when everything goes down and not to buy in euphoria when everything goes up.
感謝你的科普視頻...最近我學(xué)到最重要的一件事就是保持冷靜，尤其是在加密貨幣投資上。不要在市場(chǎng)暴跌時(shí)恐慌拋售，也別在市場(chǎng)狂熱時(shí)跟風(fēng)買(mǎi)入。
The worst form of hypocrisy is when the oppressor plays the victim. God sees all.
最虛偽的莫過(guò)于壓迫者扮演受害者。上帝在看著呢。
Trump doesn’t give a flying F about us and the rest of the world.
特朗普對(duì)我們和全世界都毫不在乎。
This is nuts. The only winners are the grifters.

Trump lives in a different world. He doesn't know what it's like to struggle. He was born into a rich family. He's making life for the everyday Americans very difficult.
特朗普活在另一個(gè)世界。他不懂掙扎求生的滋味，生來(lái)就是富家子弟，卻讓普通美國(guó)人的生活難上加難。

As an observer from abroad- America’s form of capitalism is built on greed! Because wealth has been glorified as the way to happiness, people have sought personal wealth over community sharing and joint wellbeing.
作為一個(gè)海外觀察者——美國(guó)的資本主義建立在貪婪之上！當(dāng)財(cái)富被神化為幸福之源，人們就會(huì)追逐個(gè)人財(cái)富而非社區(qū)共享與共同福祉。

As a Canadian who has travelled for 50 plus years in your country and grateful to have seen 43 states from the ground in that time, the Empire has been declining for 25 years in real time...its sad and Trump in the White House a second time after Jan 6th and his convictions is proof positive.

We, the rest of the world, if the US thinks it can impose tariffs on us without consequences... maybe they're wrong.
