Don't do that. Just admit you are wrong and Americans pay the tariffs. Honestly, read some of the discussions here to educate yourself of what people actually after to deal with. Here's a perfect example:

It doesn't need to be an argument. We're just helping you understand what you clearly don't understand.

Because it's not true in every case but write Goldman and kvetch. Companies have lowered prices to keep our markets open.

You posted a link that refutes your own point my guy. At least try to make it a challenge for us calling you an idiot.

Methinks it might be time for you to pretend you're off golfing for the afternoon. Maybe regroup and see if you can find any better talking points on Twitter.

Did not but cool story. Go betray your medical oath and f some more kids lives up.

American companies, right? The American companies that eat the cost of the tariffs. They aren't doing that anymore (because 125% is insane). Prices are going up.

It's only going to get worse.

Again, you argue in bad faith. Is it impossible for you to concede that you don't fully understand what's going on?

Like pretty much everything we disagree. I'm not conceding nor are you just like everything in here. I voted for this. I'm happy it's happening. I support it. I want more. What's next?

Oh, you can absolutely be happy to pay more. I'm glad we can educate you on the basics of tariffs though.

You did.

You more or less quoted this:

Historically, economists have found that foreign firms absorbed some of the burden of tariffs by lowering their prices, resulting in a combination of foreign businesses and domestic firms and consumers sharing the burden of tariffs.

This is literally the next sentence:

In contrast to past studies, however, recent studies have found the Trump tariffs were passed almost entirely through to US firms or final consumers.

Followed by 5 linked studies that back up that point.

Hurried up and Googled something to back up his position without actually reading it. Classic.

Says what's wrong? Can you link to where Goldman says that?

Historically correct. Goldman says 25% that may go to 2/3. I'm fine

ITS YOUR LINK DUMBARSE

You're trying to argue against your own posted data.

But sure go ahead and post where Goldman says "up to 90%" (your words) of the current tariffs are being eaten by foreign exporters via price reductions. Please note, it's advisable to actually read the link before posting this time. Wouldn't want to look like an idiot again

The mass hypnosis is a thing. It's like they know, but can't say it out loud or even type it. A bonkers level of mind control.

See, that's where I disagree. Diehard, as we all have observed by now, is severely retarded. Like you can slowly walk him through and explain how 2 + 2 = 4, but it just doesn't register in his brain. He's literally incapable of learning even the most basic of concepts no matter how many times they're repeated to him. How he ever held a job for more than a week is one of the greatest mysteries of our time.

Trump's America.,
