Must be paid by apple
Trump still doesn't know how tariffs work
he knows how tariffs work
but he knows his voters don't
It will be paid by Apple, when they lose sales for raising their prices
Apple's about to learn how they work
You know what else will increase prices?
U.S production.
I doubt 25% is even enough to cover those costs
worst case scenario, they fund our tax cuts with the tariff revenue
he knows how tariffs work. they will in fact be paid by apple
at first he said they must be paid by "china", but he seems to have figured it out
what he doesnt understand now is how prices work, since he doesnt understand that customers will pay for that, and that there is a reason businesses are manufacturing in India and China. i think Tim Cook probably tried to explain it to him but gave up.
the tax cuts don't need to be funded, the government just needs to spend less money on welfare to niggers, coal burner single moms, and bureaucrats
this is the IQ of the average person voting in elections kek it's over
True
No it wont retard
But they would be paid by Apple
Don’t chinks throw themselves out of windows for having to make iPhones?
then? how are you ok with more taxes to fund tax cuts?
besides, tariffs are taxes on wagies to benefit corporations. if anything it should be the other way around.
Low tier manual labor jobs for whites, but imported jeets to work in skilled occupations
Brilliant
It's going to the 200 billion dollar defense plan retard
They can eat it though because they make overpriced garbage for morons who buy it. Get a degoogled android phone if you want to be elite. Carrying apple around says you're bottom of the barrel dregs/plebs/etc
so now americans must pay more for iphones so the chinese don't throw themselves out of windows? what happened to america first?
miga cuck logic is not even consistent
Yes it absolutely will.
Whites will not work in these factories for less than $20/h.
It might work if let illegals work for $3/h
Apple will be paying tariff on components anyway. What's their incentive for doing the final assembly in the US too at a high cost?
He should slap a tariff on his vaccines
Operation warp speed
Donald T
Killing people with the vaccine
Trump does not operate in a vacuum.
His army of special interests have an agenda and this is just part of it.
Just know that Politicians are going to fuck us all over, that includes this admin. You have to be a small child to think that this ISN'T theater and that MAGA means it helps the average person.
California is technically already not part of the US so they can ship them there tarrif free.
dont ask questions man trump said "china will pay" that's all there's to it. its like with tranny logic, if you ask questions it falls apart
tariffs don’t work
please ignore centuries of international trade where tariffs existed
economic scientists in an economics lab invented new economics that showed it didn’t work
Hahaha
you lost, tranny
ok but most american businesses still can't afford that
California is technically already not part of the US
dumbest post I've read all day
How is Europe so confused about import fees when their entire life relies on them?
Neat jewish pilpul.
No one said tariffs "don't work".
Trump doesn't understand how tariffs work is what is actually being said
So? Normies have no idea how smart phones work but they use them every day successfully.
Tariffs are, in fact, paid by the importing party.
As companies posting their DHL duty invoices recently demonstrate.
OP is retard who didn't do 5 seconds of googling for this post.
Not dumb, you're just to ignorant to see the changing times you live in, yank, AKA roman imperial 2.0.
our life doesn't rely on import fees in fact it would be much better without that shit
j-j-j-jew
Hahaha
Wrong. International version iPhones can be made in India or wherever and subsidize the US made iPhones
transport and manufacturing is also paid by the companies, but guess what, the more that costs, the more expensive the product is, try to think for 5 seconds
I just think it's good for foreign made goods to be taxed.
It's a good thing even if we cannot bring the product here because it forces americans to work around it.
Then? Tariffs are taxes on spenders. Your whole EU bloc uses tariffs to protect its domestic markets so shut the fuck up
arguing against tariffs while living in the EU
Everything you post is trash for the trash god
that's the problem. they are a tax on us. to protect european corporations at the expense of wagies.
but muh jobs
we would not "run out of jobs" even if we imported everything we consume from china. because the chinese want our currency because it has value, and if it has value, it's because there's things europe exports in exchange for it. so at worst this would transform our industry in a way that made more economic sense and we would end up better off
ok well but if you force americans to do anything, by definition you are making them do something different from what they prefer. so from their pespective, by definition, that's bad.
i dont make the EU policy, i dont want the tariffs we have
ok well but if you force americans to do anything, by definition you are making them do something different from what they prefer. so from their pespective, by definition, that's bad.
The ones who are loyal to our country will see it as good, and the ones who aren't loyal... well who cares what they think
go kill yourself, retarded schizo nigger
Oh damn good point dumbass really jogs the noggin. You are so intelligent.
by this logic you could justify anything, even enslaving white americans
because you are basically saying that the country is a different entity than the people (since making people's lives worse can apparently be patriotic), and is more important than the people
An average line worker in a chinese factory gets paid 30 yuan an hour. that's about 4 USD an hour.
Is any american willing to work in a factory for 4 dollars an hour? If the answer is no then prices are naturally going to be higher. that's not even taking into account a firm needing to recoup the cost sunk into moving their entire supply chain to the USA.
tldr you're a retarded migamutt
I never said the product wouldn't cost more.
Just that the point OP tried to make is entirely wrong.
Unless Apple produces locally, they will be sending Uncle Sam an import tax.
try to think for 5 seconds
Pottery.
You first, kike
if you think it makes sense to hire americans for 20$ an hour instead of chinks for 3$, then why dont you also support limiting work to 1hr a day? imagine the absolute abundance of jobs
No there are certain things where everybody benefits if everybody follows a rule, but if some people don't follow then it hurts everyone.
Basically you are talking about a free rider situation. You are saying we should not punish free riders because obviously they would not be free riding if they didn't want to be.
But we live in a society, you nigger
I think Trump is just evil
This 50% tariff on Europe, which is happening right after a breakdown in peace talks between Ukraine and Russia, can't be a coincidence.
Trump is pro putin and wants Russia to win.
4pbtid OP
swede
some bullshit post complaining about Trump
So tiresome. Shouldn't you be at the mosque?
LOL. Market growth happens outside the USA.
They will make American iPhones more expensive and still be able to compete in Asia.
He thinks the point is muh jerbs
Guess again retard
At this point I'm not so sure anymore
Now go after Musk for wanting to import 200,000,000 pajeets to displace all American workers like he's already done at Tesla
Ez Pz just produce components in America as well
Oh. And what does this have to do with Sweden?
Nothing and you're just a creepy, obsessive cuck? Got it.
when those tariffs hit the muslims wont like it lel
Whole motive of your """tarrif"""' grift is to bring your jerbz back to the jewSA. How's that working out for you? When can I expect to see a jewSA made phone? XD
What the US needs is very large numbers of Indians and Chinese who will live and work in the US for Indian and Chinese wages.
if the point isn't to onshore manufacturing then what is the point? please enlighten me o wise migamutt
ok then you are admitting that it's not a question of patriotism but of being practical in terms of economics
but what if economics don't work that way and you're actually wrong?
making things abroad for cheaper than locally adds wealth to a country. it makes economic sense, and businesses making choices that make economic sense (such as optimizing production with machinery) is how developed countries become that way. the only downside is "muh jobs".
but economies don't actually run out of jobs. if you think about the way things worked in the 1800s vs now, we should've already ran out of jobs multiple times. but people don't just stop spending when they have their needs met, they come up with more needs and basically just spend based on what they can afford, which is more the more productive society is.
This, I want to see a Chinese/ americunt president by 2030 as the ultimate yank cuckening.
the whole point according to you guys is either muh jobs or "china must pay" most of which are retarded
Libtards
RAISE TAXES ON THESE BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES
Also libtards
TARRIFS ARE JUST GOING TO PUSH THE COST TO THE CONSUMER
Why is everyone so stupid?
Do you even know what you're talking about?
I don't respond to memeflaggots, jeets.
Those 30 yuan factory workers are currently losing their jobs and their employer is going out of business at mach 2. I wonder why......
You just did, stupid yank.
The salary is just a small part of it.
There's also unemployment insurance, payroll tax, and health insurance. Also you have to offer vacation and paid family leave in some states.
That IS the point. That doesn't equate to mass employment in the 21st century tho. Obviously.
No I didn't.
ok then you are admitting that it's not a question of patriotism but of being practical in terms of economics
No I think it's a national duty to support american businesses.
And that is a much saner way to decide who gets taxed than just taxing based on income.
It's not just better because of economics, but also because of the secondary social effect. American brands are loyal to americans and so from a national security perspective it absolutely is superior to have functioning american businesses able to fill the needs of americans.
trump finally learned his name
kek
libs are being exposed for the evil jackasses they are.
How do tariffs work? Why do I pay import tax for goods from the US and no other country (not just EU)?
So, you are wrong, but cannot admit it.
Why are you such a liitle bitch?
lol you said before, as a response to me saying that you were putting patriotism over actual people, that everyone would benefit from following that rule. aka it's a practical thing.
i prove you wrong on the economics of that, and now you say it's national duty.
damn bro you're right
trump really got the chinese bro. xi will finally pay up
You obviously understand neither economics or debate. I hope for your sake you have not yet reached age of majority.
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
Actualy it's frogposting.
Why are you 3rd worlders complaining anyway. Cheap Chinese shit just became even cheaper for you why the FUCK are you STILL WHINING???
ok bro, xi will finally pay up after all these years of ripping off americans.
Imagine thinking anybody would take economic advice from a globohomo Spaniard. Go back to sleep, Luis.
Moral duty has practical effect.
Theft is wrong, but also economically bad.
That's not a contradiction.
Morality and values aren't separate from reality and consequences, they are aligned
im just discussing politics and i find stupid opinions to be frustrating that's all
And I doubt most Chinese workers are just doing just 8 hours with a lunch.
spain is white and high IQ
ok but buying chink shit is not morally wrong
supporting american families by letting them buy what they want is better than supporting american businesses
in fact tariffs support some american businesses at the expense of others, not all american businesses
"it doesn't matter if american business fail"
"it doesn't matter if my countrymen's efforts fail"
"what matters is that I get the TV for the cheapest price"
This is the mindset of a thief
You and the entirey of your side of the planet is just having fun point out how dumb we are. That's it huh?...
Tell you what, BITCH, just embargo us. Simple and to the point. E A S Y.
They don't call OSHA either.
you could also say
"it doesnt matter if american families can't afford a good living"
"it doesnt matter if wagies work all day and can't afford a tv"
"what matters is some american businesses make a good profit"
there's multiple ways to look at it, but i already proved to you that no tariffs makes society richer overall, and that tariffs don't benefit all american businesses, they benefit some at the expense of others
if i could make policy i would substantially lower taxes here and remove all tariffs
you have to understand, the western IQ is plummeting due to dysgenic feminism (women's sexual selections) combined with immigration from third-world shitholes.
we, we being the collective west, literally don't understand this shit anymore. it was bred out of us to make more cattle. we've convinced ourselves this is a sporting event, and just like sporting events, when our millionaire athletes win big, so do we by proxy somehow. do you have any chips? ich bin hungrich!
If apple pays the tariff, and then passes on the cost to the consumer, the result is that apple did not actually pay for the tariff. What part of this are you having trouble with? Are you just coping?
Well played
i unironically dont get the meme
who was in ww2
The reason american businesses struggle against foreign businesses isn't because american business owners want too much profit, it's because american workers and families have too high a standard of living.
And foreign workers have a lower standard of living, so they build the factory in mexico.
You are playing dumb on this point, and it reveals the underlying dishonesty of your position
ah
kek
tf
tp
That's the joke
that's why we've been replacing them with 3rd worlders who will live in dog crates and work 20 hours a day if we make them
wasn't the whole point that american businesses are manufacturing abroad? why would they be struggling?
kek
i give up
Explanations:
1) He is planning to do something where Apple literally pays the tariff
2) He knows what it means, but he knows his voters do not. There have been multiple accounts of Trump not being insane in private and on his lesser known but broadcasted (they are on youtube) speeches/etc
3) He means "pay" as in "you will pay the price/pay for this", a tariff is a price to pay.
Exactly.
It's completely immoral to go behind the backs of american workers and hire some third world animal to do the same job.
So you refute your own position. It was you who said
"it doesnt matter if american families can't afford a good living"
"it doesnt matter if wagies work all day and can't afford a tv"
"what matters is some american businesses make a good profit"
You're the one arguing in favor of their destruction of american industry for the sake of making a bit more profit.
I give up
good
They worked to break your sorry ass. That's all I care about.
look man every single optimization of industry is meant to make a bit more profit. that's how all industry has developed.
If the government prevented you from trading with other people and you were forced to grow your own food, sew your own clothes and hammer together your own toaster would you be richer? Because that's the logic of protectionism. Trading with other countries doesn't make you poor.
There have been multiple accounts of Trump not being insane
lmao
the absolute state of maga
recognize corporation as rogue nation state
tariff
Lol
On a serious note, your blind spot is showing. Money is being freely printed and handed off to the stock market where it's directed out to you 3rd worlders and then your ego demands you ignore that and the fact that that free money is increasing directed at you and not Americans. It's not complicated at all but your giant egos demands you make it so. Again, just embargo us. You can't and won't because you benefit from us despite not importing much from us....outside of free money.
Yes but the fastest way to profit is to just steal the money from everybody else.
You're not grappling with this. Not everything that is good for the perpetrator is good for the society to whom they belong.
Sometimes maximizing your personal profit comes at the expense of society and when you do that, you should expect to pay a punishment.
Cook?
import from poopooland
pay tariff
He isn't wrong this time.
tim cook
what happened to the jobs guy?
I am not maga, I don't like the idea that everyone is X or Y either. You need to learn to love and empathize with them if you really care about anything. Arguing about frivolous things is pointless.
Watch the video below. I can try to find the other ones I saw of speeches he gave a while back where he didn't don his persona.
youtube.com
look man every single optimization of industry is meant to make a bit more profit. that's how all industry has developed.
Markets have to take into account the imperfect and opinionated humans they serve it. Sorry muh """optimization" isn't simply just a numbers game.
Looked into it. Jobs went to India now there's no Jobs just Cook's Apple.
this statement alone should be impeachable, but since the Republican senators are criminal slavers with ulterior motives to "save white christians" over saving the country, nothing can be done until the filibuster is removed and power is stripped away from the vote-suppressed welfare red states.
Hope MAGA realizes they are on the losing end of the stick.
170 million legal voters didn't vote for Trump.
Now stack on the rest of the western allies, most of whom lean left. MAGA have no friends in the world. Ya'll are going to get your shit kicked in. I'm going to personally enjoying killing legions of you rural faggot ass losers who don't have the IQ to do anything with your life except shoot guns and harass nature.
Why you losers don't just commit suicide is a mystery in itself. The world doesn't like you, doesn't need you, and doesn't want you.
ok i see your point but, i would say that, anything that is good for the perpetrator is good for their society, as long as it's done with consent. for example stealing isnt, rape isn't, murder isn't, but anything you do that has consent from both parts is good for society as it's good for both parties and doesn't hurt anyone else
the exceptions would be mentally ill people (like trannies paying doctors to chop their dicks off) and children ofc
No it wont retard
Are you genuinely this dumb??
Look up Wage-Price spiral
Grim AF.
Yes you are.
I'm retarded but I also lied so that retard would point out the increase in cost is due to wage gains for Americans.
so let me get this straight, you think that apple is going to produce iphones in the US at a loss, and they are going to cover that loss with the global sales?
He has dementia, he doesn't know what day it is.
Its very similar to his father who went to work everyday for a decade and wrote memos and everyday his secretary put them in the bin and went home. There is no masterplan, just a sick old man with a terrible rotten genetic weakness flailing around and its very sad.
