Yes that's what I was trying to communicate, I guess I didn't phrase it well.
Goods coming in are paid by the consumers to our government, making it pretty much a tax on ourselves. The point of this is to manufacture stuff at home. I actually hope it ends up well because sometimes I want to buy stuff from people with fair wages and it's hard to do so. Like finding stuff like electronics related is all from China.
And then there is the other tariff from our country to other countries which is placed on our American goods entering in their country. This mainly is hurting ourselves and the best case scenario is we end up being self sufficient. I'm not sure if it will turn out this way or things will stay how it is, manufactured elsewhere and imported in at a higher cost.
Well they are a tax that other countries will pay so they are half right. But the point is the other countries will place tariffs on our stuff. Trade wars don't usually end well, just fucking over consumers.
I mean there are upvotes and downvotes so I don't know what you mean. But there isn't a real incentive to have lots of upvotes on here. I'm not even sure why karma farming even is a thing on reddit. Maybe cause you can sell the account to whatever guy wants to buy it?
I had this one friend who smelled like piss one day and everybody I knew was afraid to say something. I sometimes think about that situation and if it was the right thing to brush it off and not tell him or to tell the guy.
Genuinely considering it as I love e ink, lightweight, long battery life, and open source
