Leopards Ate My Face

The fact that the distinction of who the fees actually get connected from matters so much to people is so crazy to me. It doesn't matter who the fees are collected from, you're paying them regardless. If the exporter pays them they will just raise the price you pay to cover the cost. It also amazes me that so many people who were in favor of tariffs somehow think they wouldn't raise prices even though that's literally the entire fucking point of tariffs. They raise the prices of foreign goods to give domestic goods that cost more an advantage.

WE TRIED TO TELL YOU!

USA USA USA!

This way of thinking is hilarious. Dumb too but also hilarious.

What leads anyone to think the source would pay for this.

I tell you what, the next time this person votes for the orange child rapist he's going to do it very begrudgingly!!

Haha, just kidding. There's not going to be elections again, or at least not until the obese imbecile dies and passes on the dictatorship...to Eric.

These people can't be as stupid as these looks into their lives suggest? Ignorant though? They are really ignorant.

Okay so pretend they are right, pretend that the Spanish manufacturer pays the tariff:

Do you think they will still sell it at the same price if they had to pay $450? They'd just charge you more to cover their fees, lmfao.

Edit: Oh someone here already commented this, oops

Enjoy the tariffs idiot.

I don't think I could find a Spanish person, except perhaps a child, who didn't understand the concept of an import tax. How are Americans so goddamn stupid that they don't understand something that simple.

It's a tax, in the United States, imposed by the president of the United States, why the fuck would a Spanish company pay it?

Knowing DHL, the actual import duty is about half that. The rest is a "brokerage fee" they are charging on top of the tariff. They will not provide an itemized invoice until after you pay. They will not answer any questions about it.

Let's just say for the sake of the argument that the exporter did have to pay taxes on the purchases. The exporter isn't going to pay $450 of of pocket. The purchaser is still going to have to pay the $450 taxes.

Aside from everything else, apparently this guy doesn't understand how "Asking for a friend" is supposed to work.

Maybe op should have bought domestic instead of importing it.

How does this benefit me?

Is the satisfaction of making dear leader and his rich friends richer not enough for you?

This is literally how tariffs work. They don’t benefit you. They fuck you in your anus. We tried to tell you.

At first you think he may just be naive of how tarrifs work. Which is still true, but it doesn't explicitly label him as maga.

Then he says this....

How does this benefit me?

And there it is. The selfish attitude that tells me he voted for this exact outcome without a clue what that outcome actually was. Just voted for his team, and didn't bother with the details. Oh well. Have the day you voted for.

When a moron finally realizes he's been lied to.

Maybe that Plato guy had a point about democracy damn
