@idonthaveshoeso @krassenstein We literally gained independence from Britain because a king was imposing taxes without representation. Congress has always had to approve taxes and spending. The overreach from this administration is beyond concerning
@LeadingReport If I actually paid the 145% tariff I would need to pay to continue doing business, then my income tax would be zero because I wouldn’t have any profits to tax.
@walter_bost@ABC If this idiotic trade war doesn’t end I will have to move my production somewhere else, but it won’t be the US because that’s too expensive. Also there would be a hefty tariff to move my molds from China to the U.S., so I am incentivized to move them literally anywhere else
@Rose64443965@ABC If there’s assembly involved, then it’s much cheaper to do that where labor costs are low. Only other option is automated equipment which is very expensive.
@ESukbat51259@ABC Yes, exactly. If you are going to make it completely unprofitable to make products in China, then at least do it in phases so that US companies have time to pivot. My factory has a 5-week lead time. I am sitting on a ton of product now and I can’t afford to bring it to the US
@Roostersbak@ABC What will that do? Plenty of us small business owners who make products in China have already stopped making product because 125% already makes our products unviable.
@JodyRossel_ @SociallySherri@mhdksafa Same reason people with no children have to pay for schools. I have kids, but even if I didn’t I want to live in a society where children get educated, don’t you?
READY PLAYER ONE x RED RISING
A crew willing to bend the rules and eager to throw a party on the Moon.
Throw in:
A warehouse heist
A terrible secret
An arrest warrant
A conspiracy that could destroy the Moon
The meaning of true sacrifice.
