Hypothetically, if I want to buy the Samsung S25 next year, and Tariffs are in place in America. I live in the UK. Why would my purchase be 40% more expensive? Samsung uses their own nodes, own fabs to manufacture their chips in south korea, they assemble the phones in Vietnam, after which they get shipped to the UK. Why would American tariffs affect literally everything as you have just said?
look closer at everything you own. 99.9% of it will be 40% more expensive if you have to buy it again

I think he probably talked about US people. You know, on a Article about a US (import-)Tarrif by a US President
Won’t products made in the US with parts imported from outside the US that are then exported have the same problem?
it depends on how the Tarrifs are implemented, but potentially yes.
I can however imagine that products designed for export would be excluded, since they generate US-based Jobs anyways.
You really should’ve included that it was a UK article though.
On a US lemmy instance and US sub. Everyone else is here as a guest/visitor, I guess?
idk, but lemmy.WORLD does not seem like a US-Exclusive Instance to me to be honest.
and the same goes for the word/sub “news”.
