Tariffs raises costs for US households by $1200 on average!!
Rising to $1600 next year. Remember the idiots on this board who kept insisting that this would not be passed down to the consumer and that other countries were paying for it? Its fucking math, there's no where for those costs to go. I seriously can't believe how dumb the average poster on this board is.
But the real problem is we didn't send Bob in to negotiate all these costs with the suppliers, thats the real drop!

This from a guy who supports politicians who print money to pay for pure shit that is beneficial only to democrats, create hyper-inflation costing Americans billions upon billions with a cherry on top being high interest rate stagnation.
Can you be a bigger major league hypocritical dipshit? Your side did more damage in 4 years than one could even imagine prior.

I’ll pay far more than that in Washington state payroll taxes that have been added in recent years.

All bullshit all the tim. How do all the countries tariffing our goods survive that calamity? Factories and jobs returning to the USA in droves. Foreign investment to build new factories here that will employ Americans also at an all tim high. This is temporary.

The $1200 per family sounds way too high. Plus getting tariff information from the Tax Foundation is like getting immigration advice from the US Chamber of Commerce or the Wall Street Journal. I can see Bucky's economic advice every day in gasoline prices and my electric bill. Or my property tax bill I just sent in. I could see it in my grocery bill during the dementia patient's reign. When Bucky's is a one trick pony with tariffs you know his whole schtick is a symptom of terminal TDS and an American Last mindset like the international globalist Tax Foundation founded by some of the biggest monopolists in the world.

Gotta admit, slowing economic activity is anti—inflationary.
Big win!

H loves taxes except now.
That median number is designed to fool dumbshits like @HHusky and “1-iron” Spaz and the Math behind it doesn’t actually math.
Bad news H. Your fever dream of mandatory taxes isn’t true quite yet.

Shit did I tell you about my golf club and and the Xbox I got for my nephew that were both 5% more in a week? That was $100 of the $1200 right there.
And that $1200 is with companies absorbing some of that tariffs as well. They're not gonna hold up much longer.
But the real point of this post is when I called this out in the beginning and we had a bunch of morons on here who legitimately thought the exporting nation paid those tariffs demonstrating that they had no idea how tariffs work and how they protect US companies. And sorry, it wasn't one of you, it was 80% of you making this argument. God help us all if Americans don't have the brain power to process something as simple as this.
