The highest tariffs from that chart are being placed on Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Cambodia.
Those countries export pretty much exclusively junk. Bringing that manufacturing here doesn’t solve any of the problems you mention in your first paragraph.
Are Trump's beautiful tariffs

Oh, Left wing California has new sales tax in effect today. Some communities pay 11.25%! Any California pol who complains about tariffs has their head up . . . . .
I pissed off a food vendor once because I told him that I only buy US shrimp. He was trying to sell Vietnamese prawns. They looked great but our shrimping industry has been decimated by Asia. This is a tariff I like.
They're gonna be announced the same time his beautiful health plan will be.
Blow it all up without a plan seems to be your mantra these days. When has that ever worked?
The only thing that is a bad idea, is the he's basically cutting their Tarrifs placed on our goods, at 50% +/-. There is nothing Reciprical about that. Want a level playing field, you take an eye, we take an eye. You take zero eye's, we take zero eye's. I'm tired of shitting on our workers, expecting more from them to sell into an even harder environment.
The only thing that I am pissed about is Trump caved and discounted the damn leverage that we had. Piss poor performance!
After you wrote "fresh bok choy," the "I live in Carmel" was superfluous.
Yeah…he half-assed them. I’m not for them but if he’s going to do it then do it.
When you open a box of beer you don’t leave a few soldiers alive…you don’t quit until they are all dead
It's a good pick up line on the poors in Noblesville and such.
This guy boks choy. Were did a stir fry thing. And by we I meant my wife.
Good. As discussed by everybody here with taste and a discerning palette.
Probably true.
But have you met anybody from zionsville? We’re but poor peasants. The help really.
Two points.
One. It’s almost as good a pick up line as “hey can you watch my drink. I left my phone in my C63, M3, Porsche…..you get the idea.
Two. I grew up in Nobletucky. They hate Carmel. For obvious reason.
You seem to think there are no poor folk in Carmel- it starts at 96th street on the south. Take a drive up Pennsylvania.
I’ll get to Carmel to see it all for myself. One day. God willing. If I live long enough
Yet, you have not lost anything unless you sold. And 2022, under Biden, the SP500 was down 18% AND the safe bonds were down 13%, the worst year for bonds EVER. Thanks Joe.
You should be happy. Great time to buy and if you add to your 401k each month, then you should be happy to DCA.
Read the labels at Walmart. Some still say Product of Canada. And if they don't say product of somewhere, then they're from Canada and have revised labels that took that out.
One thing I like about Trump 2.0 compared to the earlier version is the mostly outstanding team he has put together.
Scott Bessent:
“Access to cheap goods is not the essence of the American Dream. The American Dream is rooted in the concept that any citizen can achieve prosperity, upward mobility, and economic security. For too long, the designers of multilateral trade deals have lost sight of this. International economic relations that do not work for the American people must be re-examined.
This is what tariffs are designed to address – leveling the playing field such that the international trading system begins to reward ingenuity, security, rule of law, and stability, not wage suppression, currency manipulation, intellectual property theft, non-tariff barriers and draconian regulations. To the extent that another country's practices harm our own economy and people the United States will respond. This is the America First Trade Policy.
We are identifying bad actors across a range of criteria, not just tariffs applied to our exports, but also non-tariff barriers, laws which unfairly apply fines to our exporters, government policies which undercut global competition and suppress wages and currency manipulation that enables persistent trade surpluses.
These are not the only metrics in which our global trading partners should be scored. That is increased burden sharing on security is critical amongst friendly nations. No longer should American tax dollars, American military equipment, and in some cases, American lives, be the sole bearers of upholding friendly trade and mutual security. Burden sharing is not a matter of offloading risk, but a matter of all benefiting parties having interest in the system. The shared interest ultimately strengthens the international system as the cost of disruption outweigh any benefits of dissolution.;”
I think your no plan comment is mostly hogwash.
When you try to please everyone, you please NO ONE.
This was so stupid. There is no try, only DO. Very disappointed at this attempt.
Jerome is really angry. Language is pretty bad, be careful where you watch it.
Well, to me, the stems are kind of like celery and leaves similar in taste to collard greens but less bitter.
I usually cook in cast iron with oil, garlic and sambal.
My grandpa was a MAAG advisor in Vietnam. Had to eat what the unit he attached to ate. According to him dog is a fine meal. Cats not so much.I'll defer to your experience for Alpo, but Spam is a fine meal.
We're a country led by complete morons
