Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

The wholesaler is the latest company to file a lawsuit against a federal agency over the president's signature economic policy.

Costco Wholesale has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, asking the Court of International Trade to consider all tariffs collected under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act unlawful.

The company said in a Nov. 28 filing that it is seeking a “full refund” of all IEEPA duties paid as a result of Donald Trump's executive order which imposed what he called "reciprocal" tariffs.

“Because IEEPA does not clearly authorize the President to set tariffs...the Challenged Tariff Orders cannot stand and the defendants are not authorized to implement and collect them,” Costco's lawyer writes in the lawsuit.

Global cosmetics giant Revlon, eyeglass maker EssilorLuxottica, motorcycle manufacturer Kawasaki, canned foods seller Bumble Bee, Japanese auto supplier Yokohama Tire and many smaller firms have also filed similar suits

They aren't just saying "wahhh government, pwease pay the difference of this quote" they're specifically replying to a thread about a company suing the government for tariff reimbursements and talking about a tariff making the price go up after the quote.

Fucking LOL, they responded and guess what, you were wrong! What a shocker!

You know what they say about assuming? Makes an ASS out of you and me, but you’re the only ass here, but that’s also not surprising. Since you’re just a petty little troll.

you’re the only ass here

Says the person who is still going through my comment history and down voting things. Every accusation you've made is a confession.

Did you miss the detail about the VENDOR increasing price? Their build cost went up, not the price. This would happened irregardless of tariffs, and is expected.

I guess if you ignore details they specify, you could take that from their comment.

But again, person is just bitching for the sake of bitching, the provided details show they either don’t understand how the system work, or just bitching.

They want to applauded for doing what they agreed to, it’s bloody laughable. As a small business owner myself it’s attitudes like this that make the rest look bad.

After going through three days of my comments to down vote them all, you don't need help making yourself look bad. You handled that quite well yourself.
