Cruz: Tariffs are a tax on consumers

Ted Cruz' father killed JFK.

Cancun Ted Cruz should have been kicked out of office, but his voters are extremely stupid.

Ted Cruz is only saying that because his AIPAC handler told him to

it's a 100% voluntary tax that anyone can somply choose to not pay by not buying imported goods.

rat spouts neocon hogwash to justify offshoring

woah crazy

it's a 100% voluntary tax

And when the local product costs more than the imported one, who pays the difference?
Let me guess.. uuuuhm... the consumer?

pretty much everything made in the US depends on inputs from other countries.

only because without the tariffs it was cheaper to import raw materials from foreign countries.
now that it won’t be, there is incentive to get them here instead.

Did your mother drop you on your head as a child or are swedes naturally this dumb?

That will take years to set up. In the meantime American consumers will be paying these tariffs.

nobody’s denying that it’s going to take years.
fortunately renovations to existing infrastructure is cheaper than building factories from scratch.
detroit for example.
it took years for the financial speculation “markets” and real estate to bubble while gutting the existing manufacturing base too.

hopes the tariffs are short lived

Guess what the European reaction will be. Right, we do nothing and just let the US stew in their own juice until they're done. Make the retards feel they fucked up.

No refutation? hmm, I wonder why.
I'm sorry this fact triggers you

somply choose to not pay by not buying imported goods

Indeed, just get broke voluntarily. You are a genius

Are you not able to understand the point of tariffs? Are you stupid?

You have nothing we want, but I hope the 'atlantic alliance' ends and we divide your gay continent with russia.

are you prepared for a years-long recession?

The point of tariffs does not negate the fact the cost is put on the consumer

You still didn't explain how consumers won't see higher prices. Trumptards are so fucking dumb.

probably.
do you think recessions should just never happen?

his full name is Rafael Edward Cruz and wasnt born in canada

in an ideal world recessions should only happen in response to a change of natural conditions. for example if we run out of some raw material, then of course a recession is unavoidable. however that is not the case here, this is a recession made entirely by a failure to organize the economy in an optimal way. it is entirely a human error, not a natural catastrophe, and could absolutely have been avoided. even doing it in a slower, more controlled way would be better.

Why do you want to make me pay for more expensive shit, I don't give a fuck about shoes made in america that cost 70 bucks I want some cheap ass shoes that cost 10 bucks that I don't have to give a shit about

Stop buying foreign products, then you pay no tarriff. If you want foreign products without paying tarriffs, move.

Not an argument

Then fuck off to some third world country and buy it in person you whiny little bitch

Heidi Suzanne Cruz is an American businesswoman. She has been a managing director at Goldman Sachs since 2012.

Just pay double, triple, even quadruple for everything!

Why the fuck are MAGAts so fucking idiotic and cult-like?

So foreign product becomes more expensive but the local product (if it even exists) wont get any cheaper?

Stop buying foreign products, then you pay no tarriff

And when the local product is more expensive, who pays the difference?
Are you allergic to basic logic or do you just play dumb to suck off Trump?

The shit gets imported so I don't have to smell third worldies, look bro what the fuck is wrong with the rest of the world building cheap shit so I can use my fuck huge wealthy american dollar to spend very little money and get a lot of things?

I like it when prices at my grocery store are low so why wouldn't I like it when I treat the rest of the world as my grocery store getting cheap shit from them in exchange for very little amounts of paper rectangles

It will, eventually. It might not ever be as cheap, but it will be higher quality and last longer. Duh
Stop buying useless shit you fucking loser. Basic American goods will fall eventually. Once other countries copitulate to the tarriffs, America is golden

Yeah we pay into our own community, not some foreign scalper. It costs more initially, but it always goes down. How do you retards not understand this

Sorry jew, we have this thing called a conscience.

Oh, so you're saying the consumer pays for the tariffs? Interesting.

I'm sorry do you just not have children to support? Would you also support making gas cost 10 bucks a gallon to ease your conscience?

Tax is good now because things are more efficient & transparent in Trump realm.
I don't mind paying more when I can be rest assured that those money goes to rebuilding America great again.

i support foreign slave labor providing me with cheap slop because something something wife kids and and dog something something American dream

Nigger

Doing it in a slower more controlled way would never work. You would spend decades just trying to unwind which USAID money was actually needed, then more years for appeals for that one issue, and nothing else gets done in the meantime because everyone is afraid of hurting the kikes who run the economy

Why the fuck shouldn't I support brown people slaving away for me you fucking woketard. Would you rather have Americans dying in the mines? Fuck no that's African work.

Not if you don't buy foreign goods. The only reason American goods are comparatively high is because we have a great manufacturing infrastructure. Once we build new factories, basic goods go down again. And the other country still pays the tarriffs, or realistically, bends the knee. You all need access to our markets. Your goods are a luxury to us. Not a staple
Supporting your children by outsourcing their future jobs to slaves is what got us into this mess. Fuck your wallet

what youre describing is not a problem that needs to be fixed, and tariffs are the solution.

spending less money will make you go broke

If we had no niggers, we'd all be chilling in our ac pods, while we use mining drones. You're as dumb as a nigger

don't have a great infrastructure

because in the end every nation will eat the cost of the tariffs because they need american business or theyll die.

outsourcing their future jobs to slaves is what got us into this mess. Fuck your wallet

Why the fuck do you think I want my kid making shoes you fucking retard. My kids will never work in a sweatshop factory that's for foreign kids to do.
So what the fuck do you mean by "their future jobs" my kids are smart they're not gonna be working the shit job a third worlder does.

(if it even exists)

you get we're talking about the united states and not cambodia right?

we were in a recession under Biden but they just changed the definition. voila, no longer in a recession. kinda like how they changed the definition of a vaccine

we'd all be chilling in our ac pods

pods

And here you let the mask slip you fucking kike, I will not live in the pod and eat ze bugs you WEF FUCKING SHILL

They will if you can't even fucking feed them because eggs doubled in price

who pays what?
youre insisting we must pay the tariff and we dont. then youre pivoting to
domestic products costing more. these are not the same thing. if i buy domestic my.money goes to the domestic producers not to the federal government. thus i am not paying the tariff.

The pod is to control the mining drone you fucking esl retard. You know, like in a crane? Or a plane? Or any other job inside. Man you guys are extra retarded today

stop external influence
stop jewish influence

leftists are the root of all evil in mankind

Excellent, when my air conditioner can no longer be repaired I'll just order one from Miami.

YOU LOST
WE'RE NOT DOING YOUR PLAN TRANNY

my kids

you are infertile now. what you did to your body was permanent.
as if. millennials were barely able to get working class jobs after their 39s. zoomers just have mo hope for gainful employment at all.

Not if you don't buy foreign goods

The tariff forces you to buy locally which is more expensive. The tariff is taxing the consumer however you look at it.
I'm sorry this fact is upsetting to you

The tariff forces you to buy more expensive local product, the tariff is a tax on the consumer.
It's very simple

It hurts to see how poor your soul is, even though it seems to be of free will, but I don't think it would hurt to see an asshole like you die.

they need american business or theyll die

We see stupidity not thought possible, it's amazing.

Supporting the local product is healthier for the community. You are just the backstabbing neighbor who doesn't care where the product comes from if it saves you a shekel.

just build cars without steel bro

Yes, and local products will lower in price eventually. We pay no tarriff because we choose to instead pay back into the community. Domestic production will increase because domestic demand will increase. People will choose to buy less foreign goods and thus, they will suffer and eventually make a deal to remove tarriffs

Literally look at anything about the news
Countries are literally scrambling to give America better trade deals and avoid the tariffs instead of giving a collective fuck you and going to BRICS
It has literally been less than a week and you're already wrong

Countries are literally scrambling to give America better trade deals

countries such as Ukraine and Israel wow

Argentina, UK is close. The dominoes are falling Chaim

>American corporations brings Job back to the States ....

Ted Cruz -- Ohnoes it's a Tax on Americans !!!
Strange how he repeats the Globo Homo's mantra exactly ....
Mean while in reality -- Trump Tariffs Canadian Aluminum -- Canada raises Tariffs Food .

Canada seems to be taking Ukraine's battle plan -- To the last Canadian ,

Prices will never go down. Everyone becomes impoverished overnight because we have to pay fat union workers $55/hr now to make shit. We didn't move all our industry overseas for fun. It was too expensive to make shit here, and that isn't any different in 2025.

You do realize we're still automating things as well right? Instead of 100 factory workers making minimum wage in one factory, we'll have 10 robot mechanics working in 10 different factories. We'll be exporting high end goods by 2030

Oh no! How could I possibly do something as monstrous as support a local business!

We've been in one since 2008.

Nothing stopped you from supporting your local community before, now you have to.
Your prices have gone up because of the tariff.
If you wanted to give away your money to your community, you always could.
But you want to give away other peoples money

Can't tell if you're being facetious there are a bunch of HVAC manufacturers in the USA.

Later Wednesday, however, Trump upped the ante, sharing on Twitter a photo that shows Melania Trump alongside an unflattering picture of Heidi Cruz. A caption on the photo says: "No Need To 'Spill The Beans.' The Images Are Worth A Thousand Words."

Cruz again issued a rapid response on Twitter, telling Trump: "Donald, real men don't attack women. Your wife is lovely, and Heidi is the love of my life."

I already support local. Now it just means a lot of these sub par restaurants will close down and people will go home.

Tariffs are based. All the Mario Kart World comment sections are complaining about it costing $80. It’s gonna cost burgers $120 plus downloadable content fees.

Correct now you just voted to take money out of everyones pocket.
What makes you entitled to their money?
