Don’t worry. The money will trickle down so they can afford it. Duh.
They gon learn 😆
These people don’t have the mental capacity to understand anything past the hook to Born In The USA. I don’t know what you’re expecting.
They just don’t fucking get it. They’ll be like “we’ll **make** the things in America!” without understanding the very basic facts that
1. We don’t have the amount of resources we’d need like other countries do, like metal and plastic.
2. We can’t grow food in a lot of parts in America. Coffee for example can only really be grown in California and Hawaii if the weather is consistently super humid.
3. With all of the immigrants being deported, nobody is going to be able to get what resources we have left unless they get it themselves because nobody will want to work for them for the pennies they were giving the immigrants.
Also, people thinking stateside companies won’t raise prices on domestic goods to just under the imported cost after tariffs is crazy. The corporations price gouged people during the pandemic out of greed. They really think making imports cost 30 dollars won’t result in domestic equivalents being sold at 28 dollars?
Too late now. Face the music.
I even bought an Alienware by Dell laptop for a large amount of money and guess where it was delivered from? Spoiler: It was not the USA.
American companies are also going to raise their prices to match the cost of imports . Capitalism doesn’t leave money on the table. Full on dipshits
You really think the people who: support a guy selling bibles with his name on them and wear identifiers of there hatred and lack of intelligence (all of which are made in China) are going to learn how one of the few non hate policies there candidate pushed for will learn.
“What do you mean I have to pay Amazon for the delivery? I thought they paid for it!”
Basically the tariff argument
Can we make just about anything in America? Absolutely.
Can we do so at scale to meet demand and at an affordable cost?
Fuck no.
They think a round of tariffs is going to completely upend years of economic development and we’re going to see low skilled manufacturing cropping up all over thr country to fill the gaps.
We won’t.
shit will just be very expensive.
So sick and tired of these right wing mouthpieces.
America on their way to give china the throne of absolute world power… love to see it 😮💨😍
They’ve had plenty of chances to “buy American” but the convenience of the modern world was too persuasive for them
The same idiots that voted the orange faced moron into power are the same idiots that won’t understand how these tariffs are going to work until reality slaps them in the face.
Like, even if you buy american only..
The stuff you produce needs imported materials no?
You do american clothing that will be super expensive in itself then you need cloth. Or do you produce that in america as well?
Are these people dumb enough to believe you just produce everything locally? Jesus christ.
There’s a reason why the convicted felony and republicans love the poorly uneducated for a reason.
And how many American companies are going to keep their prices at current rates when all their competitors are raising them. Just an excuse for more shareholder profits.
They still don’t get that American companies not affected by tarrifs are gonna raise prices because, why leave that money on the table…
$90 papaya
And even if something is manufactured in the USA the raw materials or the components needed to the production would 100% not being from USA so also impacted by Tariffs
America makes good things, like some sports, p0rn, and excuses.
An iPhone uses parts from 40 different countries and 200 factories in China
To make it in the USA would take maybe 10 years and the cost would be at least five times higher
Sure I’m all for buying locally within reason but this will be like the first portable phones only for the 1%
But you do make face-eating Leopards in America.
We have examples of Trump’s tariffs being failures. Look at US Steel or should I say Nippon Steel lol. Ask automotive factories about Trump’s tariffs.
Also good to ask these Einstein’s how we are going to make goods in America after we deport 10-15M workers? There will be afar less Made In America goods post deportation plan
