Tariffs? Buy stuff now?

Competition is one thing, but cooperation is generally more effective and leads to greater achievements.

This is a mindset we’ve had at Pipe Puffin, so it’s interesting you bring this up as a closing sentence.

As many have said in this thread, imports from China are affecting costs for a lot more than just the US. Being in our position as a Canadian vendor, and through many opportunities to partner with hard working artisans across the globe (tinymigh.t_bowl, TSWooden, Glass Charlie, Greek Glass, LabetKomp, Spider Glass, to name a few), we’ve found that we’re able to make sure people in our industry don’t have to suffer hidden costs at the border for any of our customers in North America, the UK, and EU.

It’s true that working together leads to a greater outcome across the board, so, well said.

I've had fans of Jeffrey Epstein's best friend tell me how great the big beautiful trade deal with the EU is.

There is a 0% tariff on American goods coming in to the EU.

There is a 15% tariff on European goods coming into America.

So the Euros pay a 0% tax on American goods. But I have to pay a new 15% tax on European goods?

I got news for you dummies: 15% isn't going to "encourage Americans to make a domestic TinyMight" or whatever your little delusion is. So, it's literally just a new sales tax.

Also no one in Europe is buying a Ford F150 no matter what. Dumbfucks.

Oh golly gee I wonder why Europeans aren't buying enormous cars made for AmeriFats? Must be trade policy!

It's kind of interesting, there are few products from America that most Europeans want. Europe is simply different, come to Europe, to friends, get to know Europe.

What, you Europeans don't want to buy meat from a country with factory farms so filthy and disgusting you will literally be charged with terrorism if you take video of them?

Not just that. US allows growth hormones and genenetically modified grain (mainly corn) to be given / fed to cattle.

Europeans prefer more organic food, so US beef and pork purveyors go begging for customers outside the US.

Another lost market is China (which consumes lots of pork, and a lot of it came from the US. No more, since TCF came back)

0% tariffs aren't getting Euros to buy American cars

Thank you, Americans, for paying $150 billion in new sales taxes so Trump and his fellow rich pedophiles from the Epstein List can get another tax cut
