Huge Deal With the UK!!! Thank you President Trump

[WestlinnDuck]

I'm not sure some of you realize that a 10% tariff "on the UK" is a tax you pay, not them. Trump regularly insists the opposite (falsely).

And trillions of investment dollars from formerly foreign manufacturers flooding into the US has no apparent benefit to working Americans. When Washington just imposed billions of dollars of taxes on Washington consumers I didn't hear one leftard expressing any concern about who was paying the freight. America Last. Leftards lie and love to be lied to.

We’ve been over this extensively. On elastic goods UK companies are paying most of it. On inelastic consumer pays for it.

I'm just saying you pay Trump's tariffs if you import. It's a tax on you

That's not true. I have a few UK-based watch brands that I like seeing updates from and all said they would not be passing the tariff along to US consumers.

Restated more accurately: whoever imports pays Trump's tax.

 

[AOG]

He's fooled vast numbers of uneducated Americans into thinking it's not a tax on Americans

These are direct to consumer sales. There's not a third-party importing these products.

Still wrong. Either less gets imported or clearing prices get lowered to account for tariffs for foreign companies lose market share. They pay most of it to avoid losing market share.

Sounds like Washington dem politicians voting for carbon taxes and increased gas taxes and increased business gross receipts tax and the morons who vote for it then whine about the price of gas in Washington.

This is the actual fact above

Dude can't figure out that if he wants to buy British lube over US lube, he pays a premium.
That's not a fucking tax. That's a choice.

You can claim major systemic changes will take place, but to correct the record, the fact is that Americans pay the tariffs. In order to support Trump you have to be able to rationalize this, so you are making a lot of macro economic projections (which may or may not happen).

 

[RaceBannon]

AOG and the democrats are really concerned about you paying taxes

[Bob_C]

Unless the British lube has a product that has 10% more value, then their sales will dry up…

Yes, this above all other commentary on tariffs is what kills me.
These MF'ers in WA State just passed the largest tax hikes in state history and out of the other side of their mouth are trying to hit Trump over tariffs by calling them a tax increase on Americans.

I just look at my invoices to see who pays what, no need to rationalize anything there.

You'd get laughed out of every audit firm in the country if you expensed duties to 'tax'.
It's Inventory/COGS every fucking day of the week.
