Tag Archives: 20% drop in imports

No topic…okay, I found one…

Well…have been looking for a political topic for today but haven’t found one yet…I’m tired of talking about tariffs but there is one nugget that came out yesterday…imports into the US have dropped 20% since the tariffs kicked in…so, with companies tired of absorbing the tariff tax, price hikes are coming to everything we import…and shortages…you remember them? When you couldn’t find much on the shelves? When you take 20% out of imports, there has to be shortages but at this point we don’t know where it’s going to hit…and, as I talked about yesterday, we will see price hikes even from American manufacturers as they seek to shore up their profits and match import prices…so, essentially the tariffs are going to be applied to American goods, too…and idiot boy had no clue that was going to happen…just like he has no clue about anything…
