Trump taxes on goods to start today.

[Kruska]

Products that are "Made in the USA" are manufactured in the United States and contain only negligible foreign content. The final assembly or processing of the product must take place within the United States.

Bullshit - they import most of their parts from India and also from China.

Furthermore they are known for their shit working conditions and the owner is a control freak. After having lost their patents they are now even stupid enough to sue their competitors. And a final ASSEMBLY has nothing to do with 100% Made in USA.

In other words - as expected YOU FAILED

And I am not going to do YOUR work, proving that their entire manufacturing/production tools and parts are SUPPOSEDLY also made in USA - since ALL companies in the world are tied up in the Global supply chain.

He doesn't seem to understand if the corporation hands down to consumer a price increase and when purchased that consumer will pay more in sales tax.

Not just "seems" - he and his ilk are simply too dumb to understand.

Trump’s tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China: will they spark a trade war?

As the US president imposes import taxes on three key trading partners, we examine potential repercussions

www.theguardian.com

When Trump put tariffs on Chinese imports last time he was in the White House, Beijing put tariffs on US imports, including soya beans and corn. The move ultimately hurt US farmers, who relied on business with China. Without the approval of Congress, Trump ended up bailing out farmers, whose export revenues dropped by at least $10bn (£8bn) after the tariffs were imposed.

The Council on Foreign Relations, a US thinktank, has since calculated that as much as 92% of the proceeds collected from the tariffs on Chinese imports were spent on payouts to farmers.

Its so exciting to be at the start of a golden age. Have you noticed prices going up yet or is it too early to notice ?

Trump is now saying that the notional money that he makes from tariffs will enable him to stop income tax. Delusional.

But if this is his only economic idea then the invasion of Greenland comes nearer as he will need a diversion.

My advice to the US is to stock up on toilet paper and tinned goods. It may help you get thru the coming years.

Meanwhile eggs are expensive.

Why Trump insists on taxing the American people and raising prices on goods that we consume is something that the maga cult should try to explain. And guess what, they can't explain it! And, you can also bet that, to avoid pissing off the big orange dummy, they won't even try! Bigly!!!

I merely located the report on goods manufactured in the USA and did not create the sources.

You need to contact them.

Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies.

Our peaceful trading partners don't allow foreign invaders to use their soil to invade our country and spread violence and poisons. When they do, tariffs work wonders to stop it. Hide and watch. It only took two hours for Colombia to capitulate and a few days for Venezuela to buckle as well. Turdeau got the message and quit and Mexico has also shown signs of cooperation too. I posted earlier on this thread, a table about US tariffs with China---Biden and every other potus for decades has placed tariffs on Chinese goods. WTF, do you folks really think we, as the #1 consumer nation in the world have no power to manipulate markets?

 

[Concerned American]

And guess what, they can't explain it!

It has been explained to you ad nauseum in this thread and you're too stooopid to grasp simple economics and history.

 

[initforme]

And then you'll whine about NO JOBS, NO GOV'T FREEBIES -- because there are no taxpayers to pay for them. And then it will be "YOU'LL WORK FOR THE SLAVE WAGES THAT THE CCP TELLS YOU YOU'LL WORK FOR." Ask the Uyghurs.

Why wouldn't there be jobs? american workers making the products for much highervwages than overseas. Win win win

Hey Lord Haw-Haw, how are you!

I am not going to sit here and tell you that you are wrong. But what I am going to sit here and tell you is------>this is a different approach. May not be good, but time will tell. Trump has cast his lot. Either the whole bunch of you are going down, or we are.

I get his point, we could not let it go further out of control. And so, I had to put up with the Biden express for 4 years. I will put up with the Trump express, for the same; and let the chips fall where they may.

You are a moron. When one BS argument is shown to be a lie, you immediately try to say bbbbut, bbbbut, bbbbut. LOL.
Can you, with any certainty, claim that Chinese goods don't contain American sourced goods? How about Mexican and Canadian? You're running around like a chicken with its head cut off grasping at straws. You've FAILED, FOOL.

Trump is promising economic pain — and voters are noticing​

Oct 31, 2024 — Trump's tariffs, tax plans and mass deportation would wreck the strong U.S. economy and Americans' pocketbooks.

 

[whitehall]

We are in a freaking trade war. The Tariffs might bring relief to the existing extortion scam on Uncle Sam.

I merely located the report on goods manufactured in the USA and did not create the sources.

You need to validate sources if you want to use them - kiddo.

You need to contact them.

Why should I ? told you already:

And I am not going to do YOUR work, proving that their entire manufacturing/production tools and parts are SUPPOSEDLY also made in USA - since ALL companies in the world are tied up in the Global supply chain.

Why do e.g. Levi's Jeans coming from Mexico cost US$ 25 - and those SUPPOSEDLY made in USA a US$ 100? - despite the Zipper coming from e.g. Japan.
And your mental-wasteland buddy - before having stated: that only an idiot would buy the expensive product.

The humble zipper has profound things to tell us about international trade

Combine two rows of fine teeth that lock together, a slider and a tab, and all of a sudden you have a quick way of securely closing a bag, jacket, or pair of pants—a zipper. These handy, everyday devices were invented in the United States more than a century ago but are now global. They are...

LEARN to READ - moron

I had stated already numerous times - there is no country that isn't tied up in the global supply chain.

And if Chinese products would contain US parts in any significant aspect - then why is the US trade-balance so fucked up in comparison with China???????

Stop boring me - moron.

 

[Concerned American]

Why do e.g. Levi's Jeans coming from Mexico cost US$ 25 - and those SUPPOSEDLY made in USA a US$ 100? - despite the Zipper coming from e.g. Japan.

And Japan is not a country that is subject to these tariffs.
BTW, Levis ARE NOT MANUFACTURED IN THE US. So you've been caught in another bald faced LIE.

No more household names like Levi’s, Wrangler, or Lee​

The Big 3: Levi’s, Wrangler, and Lee no longer make jeans in America. A few years ago, Levi’s and Wrangler sold a Made in USA jean for over $200—but a recent search shows both have been discontinued.

Even well-known brands like AG Jeans and Lucky, which still have a reputation for USA made jeans, no longer make jeans here.

People looking to buy American made jeans will need to be willing to get familiar with a new brand, because there are no more household names making jeans in America.

Stop boring me

Stop lying to the posters on this thread. You've been exposed numerous times, mouth.

 

[Kruska]

And Japan is not a country that is subject to these tariffs.

And from where does Japan get these alloys and even the coating process machinery for producing zippers from??

Are any Levi jeans made in the US?
Your patriotism will cost you. In the outsourcing era, all Levi's jeans are stitched outside America with one exception: a single line of jeans produced at a factory called “White Oak” in Greensboro, NC. The mill is staffed by old hands who've narrowly survived the American garment manufacturing industry's collapse.

BTW - closed it's door in 2019 during your Grand Wizard's stint.

And for 'idiots" like you who want to pay far more:

You having been born and raised stupid, always will remain stupid and thus will inadvertently end up with resorting to calling others Liars.

Now get lost.

 

[CowboyTed]

When do you pay it? Go play your semantics with someone else Winnie. The fact of the matter is YOU WILL PAY NO INCREASE if you don't buy Chinese goods. Now run along.

That happens on any sales tax too...

Tarriff is a tax on imported goods...

The Wholesaler (Buyer) pays the tarriff on the goods imported not the seller...

That money goes to the government.

The Wholesaler puts that on the price of the goods to recover the money he gave the governement.

The Customer pays the higher price.

92% of the money collected from the the last Trump Tarrif went to compensate the farmers hurt by retaliatory trade war.

BTW, Economists say that US lost the last trade war.

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

Answer your own stupid questions. I'm not here to play your moronic games. You wouldn't last thirty seconds on the world trade stage.

 

[Concerned American]

If you don't buy those products, you don't pay the higher price.
