Sign up with Google Sign up with FacebookQ: Reciprocal travel ban – If n how will it affect US companies / citizens ?
In intl relationshps, the core policy is of reciprocal reaction. Aftr the recent immigratn ban by USA (when upheld by SC), we can expect reciprocal bans by those 7 countries. If not with same intensity, it cud also affect USA atleast in some ways. (mayb exploratn, minerals, investmnts, trade, tourism etc).
What do u think those will be (if any) ?
this is the media blowing things out of proportion, before obama our immigration laws for inbound were enforced, and now we are going back to the standards we had back then.
Hell, Eisenhower kicked out 5 million Mexicans when he was president. It's not the end of the world, just a repeat of past policies and the left having hissy fits like they always do. The seven countries on the list was made by the hussein administration anyway. Trump did not even make the list. Obama did kick out some people, but he let everybody in the whole world come in, the funnel letting them out was not keeping up with people pouring in and now someone is stopping the pouring. We have pages of immigration laws, but nobody has bothered to enforce them for the last 8 years. Jimmy Carter had travel bans on Iran when he was president. This is so ridiculous to even be in the news and the average Trump voters in just more glad they voted for him. It's a losing fight and I'm surprised the media is even trying this. News flash to the media, only 15 percent of Americans have a passport to travel and don't give a shit. Only two of these countries even has a functioning legislative body to implement laws. Hell, I'm surprised they even have a government office working with bullets flying to even get a passport, let alone a visa.

america, or boeing could lose some airplane sales out of this, iraq already does most of their business with China anyway. I never understood the boeing deal anyway, If you do business with Iran, you don't need to sell them planes, they use money to have terrorists blow up planes, so they will create a demand by blowing up the supply, Just be patient and wait for fight for paradise and you sell lots of replacement planes to the tolerant west.

Yes, the famous "Operation Wetback." Estimates range from 1 million to 2.5 million people. Whatever the case it was a "yuuggge" operation. Do not forget that in the 1930s about 1 million Mexican people were also deported because they were seen as a public charge. Illegals and legals were all thrown out.
This reciprocation has already started. One lady named Alama Rosa Siller Contrerars turned in her visa to the USA consulate in Hermosillo mentioning Mr. Trump's attitude towards Mexico. More will follow. She will never visit the USA again and spend money with the "imperialist gringos." I am sure American people will do the same and say "F-you Mexico I am cancelling my vacation in Cancun" because you have no respect for national borders you "wetbacks." Damn, in this, no one wins and everyone loses.
Mexicans are self-deporting in rising numbers. It will hurt us in the short run, but in the long run it might not be that bad. We are the world's leading producers of silver, and I see a Mexican silver peso coming back instead accepting green pieces of papers with the pictures of dead American presidents. Once NAFTA is abrogated I wonder where the USA will get its silver to make its American Eagles since they do not produce enough themselves. They can get it from Peru and Canada but we will make the price of silver more expensive worldwide. Most of our silver mines are own by Canadians and export taxes will hurt them since NAFTA will die. The Canadians sided with Trump, fair enough. They benefit more from the USA than with us.
Retiredinchina will be always be welcomed to my house. You are alright man.
If reciprocity was the norm there would already be a 20% tax on all Chinese imports to anywhere in the world since China taxes every Foreign products at 20% minimums regardless of the country.
That's not the case? Then reciprocity is not the norm.
