    I apologize for that. I instantly felt bad for being so crass this early in the day.

    If you choose not to purchase Chinese goods and instead buy comparable goods made in other nations or the USA, then you do not pay the tariff.
    the end
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    Default Tariffs's here we go...

    Just finished a conference call with one of the equipment lines I represent. 4.4% increase in pricing going into effect on Monday due to the pieces and parts in the equipment sourced from China.

    So, my $800k equipment price just increased $35,200.

    I would not pay much attention to the US Chamber of Commerce. They are the largest lobbying firm in DC spending twice as much than any other group in the swamp. Their goal is globalism.

    I have no love for them. But it’s just math. Not opinion.

    Yeah. Percentages and fractions are a deep state democratic ploy to undermine our liberties and freedoms. And I told em as much back in the 3rd grade and no one believed me.

    Yeah no lobbying firm would pick the numbers they chose crunch and leave out other factors. Nope by the book number crunchers. Globalist are honest folk with no agenda.

    Lies, Dam lies, and statistics. Had a collage professor state that when at a academic camp at usc for three weeks during one summer between 8th and 9th grade. He then went into a statistical proof that pigs can fly, or float off the ground, given the position of the electrons in the pigs in relation to their atomic nuclei. He mathematically proved it to teach us to never trust statistical data.


    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    Bipartisan usually means that a larger-than-usual deception is being carried out. —George Carlin

    Common sense is not a gift. It's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone else who doesn't have it.
