Does Trump's evil have no bounds? 25% taxes on Americans for products from Canada and Mexico starting Saturday. As if prices weren't high enough, the miserable moron levies more on the Americans who can least afford it. What a scumbag!!

Bigly!!!

So they gotta buy American cokes instead of Mexican cokes? California avocados instead of Mexican avocados? I'm not seeing the problem here.
 

Trump can end federal tax on tips by EO asserting the tax is direct and requires apportionment​

Trump can certainly end a federal tax on tips with an Executive Order.

The constitutional command that “direct” taxes are required to be apportioned has not been repealed by the 16th Amendment. Any tax which takes the form of a direct tax still requires it to be apportioned among the states. Our Supreme Court has confirmed this fact in a number of cases, e.g., Eisner v. Macomber 252 U.S. 189, 206 (1920): “The Revenue Act of 1916, in so far as it imposes a tax upon the stockholder because of such dividend, contravenes the provisions of article 1, 2, cl. 3, and article 1, 9, cl. 4, of the Constitution, and to this extent is invalid, notwithstanding the Sixteenth Amendment.” BROMLEY VS MCCAUGHN, 280 U.S. 124 (1929), “As the present tax is not apportioned, it is forbidden, if direct.” and more recently by Justice Roberts when he stated in the Obamacare case dealing with what is called “The shared responsibility payment” Roberts stated:

“The shared responsibility payment is thus not a direct tax that must be apportioned among the several States.”

in researching our Founder’s statements concerning direct taxes, there is a consistency in their statements that direct taxes are those assessed to the individual by government, while indirect taxes are costs added by government to things such as consumer items and privileges granted by government which individuals are free to acquired or reject.

I see no reason why Trump cannot issue an Executive Order indicating that a federal tax on tips takes the form of a direct tax and requires an apportionment, and to be in compliance with our Constitution’s command that " No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or enumeration herein before directed to be taken", a federal tax on tips will no longer be collected.

If, by calling a tax indirect when it is essentially direct, the rule of protection [apportionment] could be frittered away, one of the great landmarks defining the boundary between the nation and the states of which it is composed, would have disappeared, and with it one of the bulwarks of private rights and private property.

Why doesn't some MAGA person step up to the plate and tell the big orange idiot that tariffs are not paid by the countries that he imposes them on, but by the importers of the countries receiving the goods and thus on the American people. Tell him this, he won't understand it, but at least he will have been told.

Insourcing Is Also Economic Treason

Walmart, owned by Daddy-moochers with 323 billion dollars they never earned a cent of, can easily pay all their tariffs and not raise prices. I notice you refer to that guillotine-fodder as "the American people."

What a loyal serf you are! Enjoy the Middle Ages you want to bring us back to. Go grovel in front of the crumbling castles of Old Europe that you look up to.

Once again you have shown your lack of knowledge about tariffs. Do you put your brain in neutral and rev up your typing fingers?

/—-/ Dumbazz, Trump knows that. The purpose is to force the foreign countries to move manufacturing to the US and hire Americans.
The second reason is to force those countries to bend to our will like Colombia and Canada. ( Don’t you follow the news?)
Finally Joe kept Trumps tariffs and added two more.
