Tariffs Worked “Spectacularly Well”

Lots of straw men arguments in this thread.
I'm only saying that a 15% Trump tariff (tax/levy/fee/etc) is going to increase inflation. Nobody has cited any legitimate studies to refute that. If you did I'd take a look. Otherwise it's just you being typical trumptards believing nonsense just because Mr Trump says it. Yes, prices will go up and you will pay as a direct result of his "deals."

My study is the Chinese tariffs from 2018 or whatever it was that didn’t cause inflation.

AOG still gobbling foreign dong…

Morons like Schumer and Schiff as well as MSNBC and CNN screaming about tariff inflation have allowed online businesses totally unaffected by any tariffs to add a line item to their service/product checkout page that includes another 2.00 or whatever for adjusted tariff fees. Why? Because people shopping online will just pay the extra 2.00 the vast majority of the time because we are now a society of convenience as opposed to quality.
This was before any tariff adjustments had gone into effect, mind you.

Dems were mad at grocery stores for price gouging in 2021-2024 and are now mad at them for not price gouging.

Unencumbered by facts AOG insists on being retarded

I want a study by a PhD showing any point argued to the effect that tariffs of 15% don't drive up inflation or fuck off!!!!
Studies by persons not holding PhD or some lunatic fringe podcast won't cut it. I want the numbers on my desk by end of day!!!

turn your list in first.

I prefer actual data and history versus studies that refute everything that was taught in the first week of Econ 101.

"The Impact of the 2018 Tariffs on Prices and Welfare" (Mary Amiti, Stephen Redding & David Weinstein, Journal of Economic Perspectives, 2019)
This study finds that U.S. importers in 2018 passed through nearly the full cost of Chinese tariffs onto U.S. consumer prices, leading to substantial price increases for intermediate and final goods. The research underscores how tariffs directly feed into domestic inflation.

How many EU manufactured dildos do you order per year?

lame and you know it

You’re all arguing with a literal idiot.

give the sex shop import prices due to tariffs or fuck off!

I read a tweet last night that was laughing at the fact that "An 80+ year old TV star and his team of Alabama undergrads are running circles around all these econ PHD's"

All you assholes can do is make straw man or ad hominem arguments (look it up), or post something you heard that was funny. You have no actual study or data to fall back on. That's my point. You're living in a faux FOX trump delusional world. That's all.

Highly educated lol

Tiresome.

We had under 2% inflation in the years following the tariffs that consumers supposedly paid for. I’m cool with that.
So either that’s bullshit or Trump saved us from deflation. Let us know. -
I’ve been in consumer products that cross borders business for 20 years. I should read more studies though is what I’m taking from this.
-
I'll give you credit… you've got more brains that the rest
-
Bob probably does but everyone here has more brains than you since we've been telling you the same thing
-
You've bitched about tariff inflation this whole time. We have tariffs now show us the inflation! Show your math Squiggy! Being a TV star this should be easy for you!
-
Prices are set by what the consumer will pay, end of discussion. I’ve had a million MBA’s pitch MSRP’s on new products that are just derived from the cost of inventory to hold or improve margins. I always reject those as I know it’s not the right answer.
-
Good to know that when arguing with people that have to actually solve real problems in this exact space, AOG admits that she just parrots her usual Seattle memes and doesn't at all know wtf she's talking about.
-
The inflation of 2022 was way worse than the doomsday inflation from the 2018 or '19 Chinese tariffs. Shutting down the world continues to be a retarded decision that Mr. PhD probably cheered.
-
OK!
It's 5pm. I demanded any legit study that showed that tariffs don't cause inflation. I see nothing. (There was a post titled 'Debunked' but despite its promising title was COVID-19 disinformation.) I win this debate.

Check your dms.

3 pages inand AOG is demanding evidence that he has ignored for 3 pages
