Might you be quoting the wrong person?

I could, if I wanted to refute every single "policy" you stated but I'm tired of debating things with brainwashed , racist, uneducated, angry, single, white males from the "village"

Right.

If you got nothing to say then don't.

No fun living there.

Try reading it before commenting.

I agree tariff can be useful as I more or less stated in my OP. However both you and me know Trump has been talking about extreme tariffs of over 50 %. A bit like Thailand does. Now your expert can say its in the margins but have you bought a bottle of wine recently (in Thailand)?

That other countries will pay the tariffs.

Reading is difficult, try it again.

Then why does he lies about it?

Tariffs, another word for import/export tax. Usually used to protect local industries that might suffer from (unfair) competition by foreign compagnies. Tariffs in Trump world however are seen as income from said foreign competition. This is a false and rather stupid claim. Lets explain: I have a manufacture business and order some parts from China. The parts cost me $ 100,-- per piece. I then use this for my final products and that costs me $ 10,-- per piece. I have to pay distributor's $ 10,-- per piece and my margin is $ 30,-- per piece. You, the costumer are now paying $ 150,--. Simple right! Here come the tariffs: The guy from China is still charging me $ 100,-- per piece but now I have to pay $ 50,-- import tax. So now you, the consumer will have to pay $ 200,-- for the same product because my firm is not going to take the loss of import tax. Lucky for you, I still have a year worth of products in my warehouse so you won't yet feel the pain. However after 6 months my distributor starts to charge me $ 15,-- per piece because he's been hit by tariffs as well and just like me, he is not going to suffer. He will let me pay the price. So I up my price by not $ 5,-- but $ 15,-- . Why? Not all to much pieces left on the market so I figure I can up my price. After all it's a free market and I'm a capitalist. My warehouse is now empty, all prices have gone up because they all have been hit by tariffs. I calculate and now my product will cost you $ 275-- per piece. Voila, inflation. So why is Trump a socialist (as in the way European countries are)? Remember what he said about childcare and how that was just a little bit of money compared to all the "big" stuff? Remember how he said that tariffs are going to pay for it? What he was saying (without understanding it himself) was that tax (tariffs) were going to pay for it. That is exactly what European countries do ! You pay tax and get healthcare, child support and so on. Trump is a socialist.

Mod, if you're awake I asked you to kill this threat. It's useless without caps in the title and being highjacked by some weird people.

@Cameroni you are becoming a bigger nutjob than Suzy ever was. A pro Putin westerner trying to dictate how other must vote/feel. Why don't you just piss off to Putin land and fight his cause?

Yes you have ! Got things all screwed up there. Upside, down, left from right, all mixed cross wired. So how again did you go from Putin to Ohio cheese ?

Sorry, you just melted your brain?

But Putin lovers can?

This obviously was a reference to Trumps "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT" text on his Truth Social.

Now the the title is without caps might as well delete this topic as nobody seems to get the irony anyway.

never met the man but that does not stop me from going to social media in capital letters. It reminds me of something somebody recently did but, for the love of God, I can't remember who nor what.

You clearly don't understand economics but then I wasn't counting on it either. The stereo type Trump supporter is what you are. Again go sue your school and stop blabbing your mouth off. Or go an have fun with a Cambodian hooker. Angry, white, uneducated, single, racist male.

Reminds of an German friend of yours.

Tariffs do actually. You should sue your school and get your tuition fees back.

5555 That's why we're all in Thailand or aren't you?

They are indeed terrible people but compared to Trump angels.

Sure
