Anyone underselling the stupidity of this tariff shit is just as stupid as trump.
Translation: Stupid Americans Vote For Felon Rapist Traitor To Increase Cost Of Living
I’ve been looking into producing Semiconductor Grade Silicone Powder but I haven’t been able to decide between the Plasma, CVD, or more traditional furnace with reduction agent methods without knowing their operational costs. It would be kind of out of my price range to test each of them.
I can run some basic numbers if anybody knows a good industrial catalogue for the equipment.

Or didnt vote against it
And who is eligible to actually vote in the election
Yes I’m not blaming people in New Zealand or something
How surprising is this really, considering we’re still paying COVID-inflated prices for most things after COVID came and went, and was gone, and is still gone, and it’s a couple years later and it’s fucking gone.
Ok. The bottom line is, either it “won’t do all that much”-- meaning it won’t affect prices, it won’t affect the economy, it’ll be basically useless–or it will be disastrously expensive for ordinary people. There is no other option. The “disastrously expensive for ordinary people” is the only thing that will cause any amount of the change Trump promises: it’s the mechanism by which the plan operates.
There is no option where companies just eat the tariff costs, or countries pay them. Maybe a few scattered companies and countries do, but by and large, not a chance.
Every country in the world needs all the other countries more than all of the other countries need it. There’s just no real leverage, because we’re all interconnected; you can snip one country out, and it’ll slightly hurt everyone, but it’ll wreck the country that was snipped out.

Conservatives will NEVER understand this.
They will if the conservative media machine falls apart and they start actually seeing reality.
It’s possible…someday…maybe…

This is just such an absolutely perfect summary. I wish we could American politicians to speak this clearly to explain why this is such a bad idea.
You’re very kind, thank you.
I’m already seeing some huge increases on ic chips online here…
