Yes, car prices tend to go up when tariffs are imposed, as automakers typically pass the increased costs of imported vehicles and parts onto consumers through higher prices or markups. Tariffs on essential components like steel and aluminum can raise the cost of even domestically assembled vehicles, while direct tariffs on imported cars can significantly increase their final sticker price. The limited supply of imported cars due to tariffs also contributes to higher prices for both new and used vehicles due to supply and demand principles.

How tariffs affect car prices:

• Direct cost increase for imported vehicles:
  Tariffs are a tax on imports, and automakers usually transfer this cost to consumers, leading to higher purchase prices for imported models.
  
  
• Higher costs for parts:
  Tariffs on materials like steel and aluminum make car production more expensive for automakers, even for cars assembled in the U.S. This cost is often passed on to consumers.
  
  
• Reduced supply:
  Tariffs can limit the supply of cars and parts, which, according to the law of supply and demand, drives up prices for available vehicles.
  
  
• Impact on used cars:
  With fewer new cars available or affordable, demand for used cars increases, pushing their prices up as well.
  
  
• Increased repair and maintenance costs:
  Tariffs can also increase the cost of imported car parts, leading to higher repair bills for both new and used vehicles.

What this means for consumers:

• Higher sticker prices:
  You can expect to pay more for both new and used cars as tariffs are reflected in the final sale price.
  
  
• Fewer choices:
  Some vehicles may become prohibitively expensive and potentially be discontinued, reducing consumer options.
  
  
• Potential for higher interest rates:
  Higher prices, especially for used cars, can impact buyers' affordability, potentially leading to higher loan interest rates.
  
  
• Expedited purchasing:
  Some experts suggest acting sooner rather than later to purchase a vehicle before the full financial impact of tariffs is reflected in market prices.

As a phone company retiree, I can testify that your father earned far more than a fair wage. Before divestiture, telephone techs were the highest paid of all the trades. When I started in the early eighties, my coworkers at top pay were making more than thirty-five bucks an hour plus time and a half for between forty and forty-nine hours and double time for anything in excess of forty-nine hours in a week.

We have that - had it for decades. It's called a guest worker program.

Illegals don't like it because they have to go home after the job is done, and employers don't want it because they have to pay a fair wage and pay to send the workers home afterwards.

Once ICE dries up the supply, maybe we'll start using the program again.

CNN, Trump just said he solved inflation. But prices are rising - in part because of his policies​

President Donald Trump declared on Friday that he’s “already solved inflation” and that “costs are down.”

”We have almost no inflation anymore,” he said in a Fox News interview. But Consumer Price Index data released Thursday tells a different story.

Not only does the data show rising inflation, but the pace of consumer price increases is accelerating.

Consumer prices rose 0.4% in August from the month before, pushing the annual inflation rate to 2.9%, the highest since January, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data released Thursday. The acceleration comes as Trump has levied higher tariffs on practically everything the United States imports while also cracking down on undocumented immigrants, including at their workplaces.

Wow! Talk about calling ass!!

Trump sez, go for it, we'll fire half of DC if you play with me.

I don't think he's kidding

DOGE Part 2.




Schumer and the Democrats are really going to shut down the government, at least for a while, to try to force Trump to spend Medicare dollars on sex change operations for illegals. (Among other things.)

Yes, other things.

A new analysis by the Congressional Budget Office shows government spending UP nearly 6% this year (even with the DOGE savings) and yet Chucky Schumer is demanding MORE spending or he and his Senate colleagues will shutdown the government.



Democrats are insisting on more protections for federal workers, the restoration of money for NPR and PBS, and over $1 trillion(!) in new Medicaid spending.



Huh?



If you look at the just-releases spending trends from CBO, almost half of the increase comes from welfare benefits, Medicaid, and Medicare. Yet those are the areas that the Left is demanding further increases.

Er...umm.. I don't know if you got the memo but prisons are there for illegals that have committed/been accused of committing other crimes while in the U.S. besides entering the country illegally. Those that entered the country illegally and are not accused of any other crime are just being sent back to their home country aka deportation to their country of origin.

There are no exceptions in the law that says "if you entered the country illegally but you work hard you get to stay" , apparently the Democrats don't like the rule of law and just want to go with the "rule of however we happen to feel at the time", which really sucks for all the people that ACTUALLY OBEY THE LAW.
