They actually do. I’m in the welding industry. During Trump’s first term almost all stainless, mild steel and aluminum got hit with surcharges. They eventually removed them.
Now the surcharges are all back. Almost all the major players in our industry have added surcharges as of a couple of months ago.

You don’t need to be drinking coffee to begin with

It’s very very racist.

What would the people you think are too stupid to get ID, think?

I’m in the transportation business.

My fuel surcharges are going down.

See how that works?

Here’s a link to Lincoln Electric’s current surcharges. They are one of the industry leaders, but Hobart, Esab, etc have all added them too

Community raised their prices well before tariff talks.

Coffee futures went up due to fear of supply issues with tariffs. Like in Brazil.


But with brazil having a good crop, the futures went back down. So the price went up for a minute, then came back down.



While the tariffs may affect green coffee beans it's not the only input. For example, higher gas prices would raise the cost of coffee. Same with increased wages. If we raised the minimum wage in the US, the cost to make that coffee will increase and be passed onto you.




If the left really got what they wanted, you wouldn't have anything to put the product in to sell.

Hey, I did a calculation on how much money I've spent on coffee at SB. It's over $75K. That doesn't include the stuff I bought before SB was created.
