Trump Tariffs to add $5800 cost to new cars

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Companies absorb costs all the time to keep production and sales up...

And they do the opposite "all the time". In fact, they do that much more often.

Yup, fricken liberals are full of "if's", "could's" and "maybe's", still waiting for facts.

This doesn't come from liberals,genius...damn you are an excitable little puke....

No kidding, the link specified "could", the title of the tread, for some reason, left that tidbit out...dumbass.

I weep for the pain this has caused you and your family.

Thanks Trump

Automakers: Trump's tariffs could add thousands to cost of cars

You're thanking trump for the HYPERBOLE of others?

Man Trump is quite the all powerful wizard huh

 

[OldLady]

How about holding off on the "could" until it actually does....dumbass.

It absolutely is going to raise the cost of building cars. Better face the facts, dude.

Yup, fricken liberals are full of "if's", "could's" and "maybe's", still waiting for facts.

The "facts" when your new car actually costs an extra couple thousand dollars is waiting too long. It is better to avoid a car wreck than to pay to repair it. Trump needs to keep that in mind while he is involved in these "negotiations."

That makes zero sense. Yes, they could lose their jobs. Might they then find a job I .another field? Sure. But you are delusional to think full employment guarantees all jobs.

I gotta say, the abject ignorance of simple concepts is really on display in this thread.

You are the ignorant one if you think jobs will be lost due to tariffs....nations have imposed tariffs on us for years...us deciding to do the same will not cause this economy to slow down one bit....

Slapping tariffs on Mexican and Canadian car imports could correct that.

If this were 1950 and we only had three automakers your concerns would be more valid...competition rules the cost of cars more than any other outside force...there is room within the current profit margin to absorb a few tariffs....
The point is to hopefully eventually force fair trade for everyone...the point of Trump's actions are to bring some sanity to the worlds trade rules and restrictions....they are and have been unfair to us for too long...that must stop...

Every presidential candidate for the last 50 years including Clinton and Obama have promised to do something about trade deficits...Trump is the only one doing it....

Wages won’t be going up for the ones laid off because of these taxes

We are essentially at full employment...no one is going to lose their job over tariffs....and anyone losing a job will be able to find another...jobs openings are everywhere right now...

You just declared that taxes do not cost jobs. Holy cow.

....SO WHY THE FUCK ARE WE WAGING TARIFF WARS?!

The premise is we need tariffs to get manufacturing back because Americans just don't have enough jobs. And now that people stand to loose jobs due to increased costs and counter-tariffs the excuse is...well there is plenty of jobs anyway.

will be whitewashed with the lowering of the ghey SAE standards........car companies can build the cars people want.

Why the fuck is it only a trade war when we impose tariffs?!

 

[jc456]

China should drop their tariffs then.

You can call it Suzie if it makes you happy. But whatever you CALL IT, it is fundamentally an increase of costs and volatility at time of full employment and stable growth.

So that means Democrats promise to raise taxes will cost jobs.

Either remove all tariffs and trade restrictions or live with American tariffs and restrictions....I'm tired of the world using us as a stooge for profit....and you all should be as well....Fair trade or no trade....wait until Trump's second term when he pulls our troops from Europe and the Orient....time for them to pay their own way and pay for their own defense....

Only in your hate Trump and America last mind....Trump is defending American citizens from dishonest nations that have taken advantage of us for far too long...so deal with it....
