                    Imagine pretending to think that China would pay $145 to the US government for the honor of selling me a $100 item.

                    It would literally be cheaper to just send us the shit for free.

                          If there were a case to be made that the tariffs would increase long term prosperity, even with some short term pain, so be it, but they never make any such case. They just make the claim. And almost every expert in the world makes the case about why they're wrong.

                            There have to be people in the administration who talk the "party line" and then go home and have a strong gargle with salt water to clear out their mouth. Not sure who these people are however.

                              Good news, chaps - we'll soon be able to afford to own British cars. Because if there's one thing I miss about blighty it's standing there in the pouring fucking rain trying to get the bloody thing to start.

                              Trump reduces tarriff on British cars, steel and aluminium to 10%

                              You only get a 'u' with aluminium

                              I was only joking

                                    For my view, I think that we could find alternatives for the rare earth minerals, etc.

                                    For me, the more concern is that China is moving in to our traditional allies. The US has lost some of its trusted status, which is a bigger long term problem.

                                        People started sharing receipts for tariffs charged to them:

                                          So we’re apparently backing down to 30% tariffs on China and vice versa for 90 days to have time to make some kind of deal. Futures markets are happy.
