I’m sorry those workers that have been getting laid off since last year are based in a state that refuses to DOGE. Wonderful. WTF does this have to do with paying more for crap because of Trump's tariffs? 1

As much to do with tariffs as the tweet Bill posted about the Rochester workers. Nothing. So I thought I’d point that out, and what a corrupt ***t hole NYS is. Which should be DOGEing. DC wealth that’s getting sacked is simply going to redistribute in the south or red states. As will any NEW manufacturing as as result of the tariffs. But Team TDS is too busy telling “Orange Man Bad” to actually come up with solutions for actual Americans. Too busy flying to El Salvador….

T master Posted April 20 Posted April 20 On 3/17/2024 at 7:22 PM, The Frankish Reich said: 100% tariff on all auto imports! Last year, 59% of U.S. car sales were imported from abroad. How would you like to pay a cool $50,000 more on a new Audi? OK, so maybe just Mexican imports? Oh, let's just violate the US-CAN-MEX (new NAFTA treaty) and start a nice little trade war. That's the big beautiful future Trump wants for you and me. Oh, but that wouldn't cause U.S.-produced auto prices to go up, you say? Well, then you failed Economics. Meanwhile, Trump is starting to think about his new administration. He doesn't like Jerome Powell at the Fed anymore (he appointed him, but of course, that's Trump for you). He kind of likes Arthur Laffer of Reagan "Laffer Curve" supply side fame and pseudo-economist Stephen Moore of former Wall Street Journal editorial fame. Let's see what they have to say about tariffs, shall we? https://www.wsj.com/economy/trump-economic-advisers-float-three-names-for-fed-chair-e3b694d8?mod=hp_lead_pos2 Moore and Laffer co-founded a group called the Committee to Unleash Prosperity along with Steve Forbes, the chairman of Forbes Media. The group advocates for a stable dollar, low taxes, low or no tariffs, limited spending and the repeal of many regulations. Good to see Trump is still a stable genius "effin' moron" as one of his former Cabinet members said. Tariffs are taxes on the American consumer. He is talking about a ridiculously confiscatory tax on U.S. auto sales that would distort the market and cause a collapse in new auto sales. And meanwhile, he is talking about appointing Reaganites who devoted their careers to advocating against such taxes. So all you Trumpies tell me: tariffs are good now? It's now o.k. to love those taxes? How high is too high? Why stop at automobiles? Why not ban imports of all consumer goods?
US Egg Posted April 20 Posted April 20 Trump better come out with some good ***** news soon. Got prices for a roof and windows, $30,000. Got two weeks to decide, wait longer, 20% more.

Got two weeks to decide, wait longer, 20% more. That sounds like what it would have cost last year. About $20K for the roof and $10K for windows. Edited April 20 by Doc

Been out of the game, built the house 20 yrs. ago. Then it wasn’t you got two weeks to buy the house or expect a 20% increase. If that’s been the norm, maybe so since Covid, don’t see how that gets better with tariffs.
