Fox viewers STILL imagine that foreign exporters will simply reduce their profit margins to 0, or even go into debt, for the privilege of selling trinkets to Americans. (sh.itjust.works)

I'm not sure who you mean is shilling for corporations, but that's certainly not the vibe I got from most of this thread.

It would be nice to see corporate profits wiped, especially after so much price gouging we've had to endure.

But why do you think that gouging will stop?

I am positting that price gouging has already hit peak and tariffs will limit corpos ability to price gouge.

They barely pay income taxes, they will pay have to pay some of these tariffs from their profits at the very least. A suggestion that led to the melt down in this thread from mean Lemmy.
