Haha. The money if required to be refunded goes to the companies that paid it not consumers.
Uh and during that time that these gracious corporations dealt with tariffs prices didn’t go up at all, right? Right?
Hmm
Remember:
Socialism for corporations, austerity for the working class.
And, prices won’t go back down.
And as always even in the once in a blue moon they criticize their own policies, they’re only crying about them getting screwed over, not the people in other countries getting 10x screwed over.
Yeah I totally feel bad for you Mr. American. I’m supposed to ignore what you did to me or my own countryfolk because obviously you’re more important.
I just saw a political advertisement in Germany saying, “don’t throw out your money, use it in front of your own door” (it’s partly a saying, doesn’t translate perfectly), implying that if you use your money for other’s benefit, it is wasted.
People are selfish
Yep, it won’t be forgotten, that’s for sure.
Individuals among them will piss and moan ‘it wasn’t me’, ‘I didn’t vote for this’, ‘as an American I support (insert target nation here) but collectively this is on them, their apathy and selfishness.
Not just that. Corporations increased their prices citing tariffs but I’ve feeling that those prices aren’t going to go down now.
Prices never go down. Only up. Even competition only temporarily drives down prices until your competitor fails.
Trumponomics 101
Same game as the 2008 economic crash. They could have bailed out the mortgage holders…but instead, they bailed out the lenders. The banks would have gotten paid either way, but instead of helping regular people…they just gave the money directly to the banks.
The iron law is that money flows to the top.
Good news is they learned from that, there will be no more bail outs.
Not because they change the system. They didn’t so this scam will repeat itself.
They (and our EU vazal ‘leaders’) decided to create a bail-in law.
Next time they can legally and instantly steal everything above a certain amount from everyone’s account.They’ve been quietly bailing out banks for a while now. A notable recent one is when banks shorted silver a little while back and the price tripled instead of going down. They just learned they can’t publicize it without making us serfs uppity.
That’s interesting, need to look that up. They sure kept it quiet, as I’ve never seen it reported on even ‘alternative’ media.
They will have to tell us serfs when we inevitably get stuck with the bill.
2008 didn‘t damage mortage holders, how did you get to this opinion? Banks were packaging bad credits with good ones an shifting those packages like hot potatoes between each other. Till it crashed.
You don’t remember them crashing the entire economy?
800 euro per European we had to pay for these scammers.
Yes. That’s a different case to todays case. People should‘ve been bailed out. Trump used his powers wrong and thus the paid tariffs have to be paid back to the importer. If the importer give this back to customers is a different question. Everybody should speak to Walmart et. al. about a this.
Because these companies have ALWAYS responded positively to consumers wishes, its why prices are so low and why we’re in a golden age of national production, instead of paying companies to ship products from one country, where they’re farmed, to another country to be processed, then another country to be packaged, and finally to their destination where they’re sold.
They were also offering sub-prime mortgages with extra long amortization terms to people who wouldn’t have otherwise qualified for a mortgage. It was basically on-par with pay-day loan scams. That’s what they were shifting around…the debts those people owed.
They were all thrown under the bus, so the lenders could make fast cash selling that debt amongst themselves, and then get bailed out by the government when that debt collapsed.
Ok, that I get.
Instead of giving the default money to banks they could have given it to the “bad credit” mortgage holders, who could have used it to pay their mortgages. The money still goes to banks but people get houses too.
But greed demands they own the debt and the house after taking all the money first. Corpos gotta really squeeeeeze to get that last drop.
We need a fucking fire.
ALL ACCORDING TO PLAN
When it’s not working, it’s working.
its okay , they’ll blame it on the immigrants
Even SCOTUS has been taken over by illegal immigrants.
SCOTUS is majority white so that checks out.
I don’t like it here
Why do you hate freedom?
All part of the American Scheme. Plus deadbeat Don will keep any refunds as tribute for the wonderful times he’s delivering for corporations. Small busines? Pfft. You’re on your own. But thanks for the cash consumer.
I fucking owed this time around. I didn’t even get a fucking refund. The rich get richer ffs
