It’s not just counter-tariffs. There are very few American companies with a completely internal supply chain. Every tariff US companies pay on their parts, materials, and outsourced labour inflate the price they then need to charge onwards, making US products themselves more expensive.
Lol, that is exactly what I’ve been doing for months now. Why pay extra for a device which has a few final assembly steps in the US, when i can just source the components directly from China and build it in house?
Switching up key suppliers to avoid paying taxes to the trump regime is a hard sell with the suits upstairs, but when the Americans start slapping additional taxes onto themselves and driving up their prices, they are handing me a divestment opportunity on a silver platter.
“Metal” is a bit of a stretch. I’d always put them in the “Christian hard rock” genre myself
Look again at why these people no longer have work available to them.
If advancements in technology mean that a machine can do the job more efficiently than a human, then the value of that labour still exists, we just need to legislate a redistribution of it now that human employment is no longer doing it directly.
Once we update our tax codes to ensure that the wealth of automation is shared equitably, the question then becomes “what do you want to do with your free time?”
I would solve this problem in the opposite way. Install some much lower barriers(eg 2.5m) which make it painfully apparent that you aren’t going to get anything other than a car under it.
A truck driver isn’t going to keep driving if the barrier is clearly at face height.
This whole post is kind of confuaing me because you like everyone else here seems to be the complete opposite to me. If i eat spicy things, it is absolutely fine as far as my gut is concerned, no worries at all. Where is gets me is when I take a shit the next morning, and it comes out twice as spicy as it went in.
This is the same Israel which is currently bombing Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran?
It’s like portraying a person who is actively gunning down civilians with a handgun as "unlikely to kill anyone with a rifle’.
Luckily, someone has already tested this
