We live in a global economy. His Tariffs will hurt every industry.
Yep. Even if you're buying a product which is by meaningful standards "100% American made," consider the invisible costs. The cost of the packaging that they use, the cost of the supplies/equipment they use in production and the upkeep required to maintain them, the cost of the infrastructure they use for logistics and operations, etc.
All these less visible dependencies affect the cost of doing business and can still be impacted by tariffs if anything comes from overseas, even if the product itself is just a bottle of maple syrup made in Vermont.
This came up on my feed the other day…
Made in America stickers which are made in China are now 34% more expensive.
And Trumpet doesn’t give a fuck about anyone’s warning.
