Economy What is the best non-violent way for the USA to siphon the wealth of other countries?

[Anewt]

We live in a world of limited resources and it’s time that the USA focus on enriching ourselves and taking more wealth for our country from other countries.

Liberals are so focused on taxing wealthy Americans, what we really should be focused on is how to siphon that wealth from other countries as opposed to other Americans.

Call me crazy, but aren’t we supposed to be about America first?

Now I don’t believe in shedding blood and gaining wealth through the conquest of other nations, but I do believe in leveraging our existing wealth and power to ensure we get more wealthy as other counties get poorer.

Is this something achievable with tariffs? How can we use our power to siphon off the GDP of other nations and provide that wealth to Americans?

And before people call this cruel, this is the game, in a world of limited resources, the more we have, the less they have, and it’s time we take as much as possible for America.

Save the discussion about morality, I am interested in economic theories for how we can gain wealth from other countries.

You already have 30% of the worlds wealth. And operate like a mafia selling weapons and " security ". This is your non violent approach.

The sad part is... even if you go up to 50% of the worlds wealth like you wish to... regular americans will be no better off ......

You will have a bigger military though

This is why all countries should unite and stop using the dollar.

A giant straw?

I hear the code to Norway's sovereign wealth fund is 1-2-3-4-5.

Worth a try at least.

Wtf are u talking about TS... USA is the richest country of all time, it’s doing just fine with siphoning money from other places. Can’t really do much better than it is, historically speaking.

Forcefully? I said non-violent, and we should just distribute it as social programs for Americans.

Universal income for all Americans, $2000 a month, $100 from each citizen of a European country. Etc.

There’s all this talk about the rich getting richer while the poor get poorer? We are the richest country in the world, let’s leverage that wealth and get insane amounts of money from weaker nations.

There’s gotta be some international economic policy that can help make this happen.

I say it is still deemed violent when the end result is the other country getting dirt poor that its citizens will now die of of poverty.

This is unhinged mate.

America at its post WWII is an empire of cooperation whereby we establish mutually beneficial arrangements and it's because of this that we can create enduring alliances to project strength.

This small minded, zero-sum view of the world is antithetical to our values and threatens to weaken us on the world stage.

Also worth noting that one of the main reasons America had a golden age of domestic manufacturing was because every other industrialized country was crippled or blown to bits during WWII and it took decades to recover.

This is genuinely the stupidest post I've ever read on Sherdog and that's quite the accolade.

America taxing the rich would enrich and empower America more than any other measure.

You already had the answer, you've just been told not to like it.

No no, America itself isn't rich, a small portion of its citizens are insanely rich. Different thing.

TS wants America to be roman without having the political will to be.
You want to be Roman? there's one country in the world you can take over and immediately guarantee trillions for yourself, with minimal effort cause they can't fight back - Saudi Arabia.
Just like the roman emperors had egypt, you can have saudi arabia.

You were already doing this very effectively, by making the pie bigger. Current policies are making the pie smaller, as you can see in the stockmarket.

This thinking is very counterproductive for America it self.
