因为关税，阿里巴巴将无法为美国创造100万个就业岗位

The standard Chinese billionaire doesn’t mind bringing their standard of worker living here. Not at all. Check out the auto glass manufacturer(Fuyao) who moved into the old GM plant in Dayton, OH. The assembly line that used to be filled with middle class Americans making a great wage for honest work is now filled with the working poor making minimum wage.And those people are happy to have that steady work.
​
标准的中国亿万富翁不介意将他们的工资标准带到美国。比如福耀玻璃，搬进了位于俄亥俄州代顿的通用旧工厂里。以前的美国工人在这个组装线里的工资还蛮高的，现在福耀给的都是最低工资。而这些美国人也乐于拥有这份稳定的工作。

It's alright, these tariffs are just a tax on the American people, basically forcing the lower income people who rely on cheaper chinese products to fund Trump's poor policies.

没关系，这些关税最终还是美国人民承担，基本上就是强迫依赖廉价中国产品的低收入群体去为川普的糟糕政策买单。

This is so frustratingly true. The prence of Walmart pisses me off personally because they really do have the best prices but the factors going in to reducing the costs are just not worth it, yet those on low incomes literally have to shop there because of its prence and affordability.

楼上说的太对了。沃尔玛的无所不在让我很生气，因为虽然沃尔玛的价格最好，但是其削减成本的方式太不值得，然而低收入群体只能去沃尔玛买，因为其无处不在并且廉价。

I was having a heated argument over this with some coworkers. I explained that there is simply no alternative that isn't significantly higher priced or doesn't have the wide selection Walmart has (the first that comes to mind is Fred Meyers, but they're much more expensive even though they have a similar selection.) I agree and am sympathetic with their affect on other similar chains as well as workers in their own chain, but I kinda rely on them. I think we could say the same for Amazon at this point but just as an online version. These two giants aren't going away any time soon, so what can we do as citizens who need their service, but only if it's at a price we can afford, which only they can offer? It's truly a tough conundrum we're in right now.

我和一些同事就这个问题产生了激烈的争论。我说没有其他超市的价格可以和沃尔玛抗衡的，而且沃尔玛里面的产品品种多，虽然Fred Meyers的产品也很丰富，但还是比沃尔玛的贵。我同情其他连锁企业和为沃尔玛生产产品的工人，但是我还是挺依赖沃尔玛的。亚马逊也是如此。这两大巨头不会就这样消失，我们需要他们提供的服务，他们的价格也是我们负担得起的。

I think the 1 million jobs is an over-estimate. Everyone knows Alibaba only employs 40 thieves.

我认为100万个就业岗位是一个高估的数字。大家都知道阿里巴巴只雇了40个大盗。

1m? So 1 in every 300 Americans was going to work for Alibaba? Because that seems unlikely.

100万？每300个美国人里就有1个为阿里巴巴工作？这不太可能吧。

That's not what was actually said. Here's what was said: Jack Ma said the company could create "1 million jobs over the next five years by enabling 1 million American small businesses and farmers to sell U.S. goods to China and Asian consumers on the Alibaba platform."

不是你这么说的，马云说该公司可以在未来五年创造100万个就业岗位，让100万个美国小企业和农民通过阿里巴巴平台向中国和亚洲客户销售美国产品。

That was my first thought...Walmart hires about 1.5 million - which is Ameirica's largest employer.

沃尔玛雇佣了150万美国人，是美国最大的雇主。

the government is Americas largest employer

政府才是美国的最大雇主吧。

It's a million jobs created not a million people employed by them. Their goal was to help US small and medium enterprises export into China so Chinese consumers would buy more US goods and US companies can afford to expand. Keep in note the businesses they want are not the fortune 500 or even listed publically.

是创造100万就业而不是说他们雇佣100万人。他们的目标是帮助美国中小企业出口到中国，这样中国消费者可以购买更多美国产品，这样美国企业就能继续扩张。他们需要的企业不是财富500强也不是上市企业。
