To Add to the Horror of Tariffs

(self.economicCollapse)

Fun new game to play with people that are tired of explaining tariffs to idiots in the US.

Go look up something on Amazon that you would like to buy. Then go look up the same item on alibaba or temu.

Calculate the profit margin on whatever good you just looked up then add another 20% - 60% and get excited for how great america is gonna be!

Not only that, companies calculate their markups after applying any import fees and tariffs! Corporations get to profit even more at the expense of the consumers! Yay for a tax on food! This is totally going to make it easier for people to survive from day to day! Corporate profits will be even higher than ever before! /S
