Tariffs to force price increases for consumers

Trump softened the blow to consumers somewhat implementing tariffs 60% lower than he threatened but promised to impose the full tariff after elections and Christmas.

It was more of a downvoting you. Let me put it in a way that a stupid shite like yourself can understand.

Tariffs don’t mean shite to me. I can afford to pay more

Good. You are the man. Savings doesn't matter to you either I suspect because you don't need to save.

Good. F@ck Wal-Mart.
They got big as I recall by promoting Made in USA all over their stores then once they got on every damn corner they switched in a large way to cheap made in china crap.

I hope my memory is right

I don’t see a big issue with Walmart increasing their prices. Go for it if it means you’re buying more of your products from American companies. Put a label that says “made in America on it” and I’ll pay the extra 10% or whatever with a smile on my face.

Nope they do not.

Nor do they understand that reducing disposable income is not something that is good for the economy.

It is a war by gawd. Charge us double Mr. Trump!!

In its list of consumer products that could be affected by these tariffs, Walmart included gas grills, bicycles, Christmas lights, and bicycles.


Holy shite!! Someone is really worried about the price of bicycles skyrocketing!

Long term it would be pretty dicey. Short term let’s do it. The Chinese house of cards will collapse before we blink. Trump is the best economic president in my lifetime so I’ll assume he has our best interest at heart.

Parents can get a bike for Christmas cheaper on craigslist or your local pawn shop.
My first bike was bought at a yard sale.
I loved it IB and the country survived.
