Cars, coffee and clothing are poised to get pricier with new tariffs

[Conservative from Georgia]

Coffee’s already double what it was just a little while ago

Don't know, don't care what sh*thole city you live in. Coffee prices sure haven't doubled, and I'm in California.

Yep, bet you can't wait for those government controlled grocery store. Then coffee will just become a memory.

Of course. When you put a car in the shop, you don't expect to have the work done for free, do you?

People who prefer to maintain the status quo in our economy are just as dangerous as you claim those who are in a 'cult' are.

Might I add how petulant and snobbish you sound? If anyone really wanted to agree with you, your attitude would drive most of them off. And no, you don't need a sharp tongue to sound like a jerk.

The Tea Act wasn't a tariff it was a tax

"It's the economy, stupid."

This is going to come back to bite the GOP in the midterms. People vote with their purse. Harris's loss is largely attributed to the people's vote of no confidence in the Biden administration's handling of the economy.

Americans are paying more for appliances, home furnishings, toys and shoes than they were a few months ago, and they could soon face higher prices on more goods as the Trump administration’s latest round of sharper tariffs kicks in.

The newest round of duties took effect at midnight Thursday, lifting the average U.S. tariff rate to its highest level since the Great Depression. The move solidifies the president’s trade policy after months of negotiations, meaning more manufacturers and retailers are expected to begin raising prices in short order.

You scratching your head and a monkey scratching its butt is almost no difference.
