Tesla generated more than half a billion dollars in revenue last year from selling products to two of Elon Musk’s other companies, the carmaker disclosed in an amended annual filing https://t.co/bGng1SKGiA

@3YearLetterman Do you really think that score is something you should brag about? What if your players find out you’re a big nerd? They’ll spend all their time in the library instead of the gym!

Looking forward to seeing how the WH will pretend we have "large and serious" balance-of-payments deficits that constitute a situation of "fundamental international payments problems", as required under 122.

(Spoiler: we don't)

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@scottlincicome @NewYorkFed Who is paying the other 10%? There is no other mechanism but for the importer to pay them. The only exception would be a bonded warehouse or foreign trade zone, but goods imported into them don’t pay duties.

@scottlincicome If the pass through costs exceed the tariff rates, doesn’t that suggest the consolidated input providers (seed, chemical, equipment) are taking advantage of the situation and juicing their margins?

[Scott Wessman @scottew]

This Mamdani socialism thing is quite scary, for example I heard he has already nationalized 10% of Intel and extorted a 25% cut of all chip sales to China by Nvidia. What's next, redistribution payouts from regular taxpayers to party-favored farmers?

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@MittRomney Crazy thought - what if, instead of squeezing individuals, corporate tax rates were slightly revised upward?

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@SpencerHakimian Just like the deficit , there is a relatively easy fix that will never happen bc of the duopoly that is our political party system:
1. Single primaries w/
2. Ranked choice ballots
3. Data based districts (eliminate gerrymandering)
4. Pro rata EC

@scottlincicome Does one typically pay back pretend money ?

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@scottlincicome How can an exporter absorb the cost? They can lower their pricing to stay competitive, but the tariff is still paid by the importer.

@BlackKnight10k I can’t believe these guys are actually our President.

@Budget Although it was their doing, AA rebooked me and gave me a free upgrade.

Airbnb was empathetic and gave me a credit.

Budget says pound salt, that will be extra.

What reputations do these simple interactions earn for these companies?

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@Budget horrible customer service!! My @AmericanAir flight was cancelled and rebooked for tomorrow (bad enough) and now you want to charge me MORE for one day less rental??

I already paid for the vehicle! I just wanted to let you know I’m picking it up a day later!!

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@Budget They rebook you for the following day. Bummer. You’d better let the Airbnb and budget know you’re coming in a day late. What would be a reasonable expectation in those interactions? (3/4)

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@Budget I wasn’t asking for a credit, I just wanted to let you know I was picking up a day later and you wanted to charge me more for that.

I understand that is your policy. I hope you understand these are the types of decisions that drive away customers.

[Eric Nemer @Eric_Nemer]

@Budget I appreciate the response but come on, no one has ever been charged more at a hotel for staying less nights. Besides, I pre-paid so what possible business rationale could you give for having this policy?? That is not rhetorical, I would really like to know.
