You're right, I'll stop blaming tariffs. I'll just blame TRUMP. It's all TRUMP's fault, Walmart is going to raise prices because of TRUMP. They should put a TRUMP TAX line on their receipts.
HOW DARE YOU RAISE THE PRICES AFTER I IMPLEMENTED TARIFFS WHICH ARE A TAX ON THE US CUSTOMERS? Trump is fucking embarrassing and delusional.
Yeah poor rich people need to earn less money... TAX THE RICH BUT NOT MY BILLIONARES /Reddit logic
So the corporations should just absorb the tariffs? Wouldn’t that be like a, what do you call it? A TAX! /s Why not just raise taxes on the 1% and corporations instead of tariffing our allies and alienating them, throwing THE WHOLE WORLD ECONOMY into a tailspin, creating supply chain issues, bare shelves and unemployment??!!??!? There’s a thought. And I’m not even an economist or a president 🤷🏻♀️
Trump should EAT THE COST OF HIS PARADE. Trump should EAT THE COST OF SECRET SERVICE STAYING AT HIS HOTELS TO PROTECT HIM. Trump should EAT THE COST OF THE RICH TAX BREAK NOT RAISE 4.5 trillion tax limit
Maybe he should, I dunno, TAX them more?
"THEY ARE NOT EATING THE TARIFFS! THEY ARE NOT PASSING MY TAX BILLS! THEY ARE ..wait? These are Republicans? In that case BIDEN ruined the economy and he was old!" Smh
Also... THEN WHY NOT JUST TAX THE CORPORATION ITSELF. Fuck me!! They want progressive policies, they just don't want to call them that.
Reddit - TAX THE RICH! *Trump tax the richest* Reddit - BUHU NOT MY POOR RICH! HOW WILL THEY SURVIVE! THEY WILL JUST PUT THE BURDEN ON THE CONSUMERS!
USA should stop trying to blame global trade as the reason for raising tariffs through the supply chain. The USA made TRILLIONS of dollars last year, far more than expected. Between the USA and other countries, they should, as the saying goes, "AXE THE TAX" and not charge Canadians ANYTHING. I will be watching and so will other Canadians.
DONT WORRY!! BE COOL! TAX CUTS COMING! NO TAX ON TIPS *the Wendy’s worker who can’t accept tips:* 
>WE NEED TO CUT MORE SOCIAL SERVICES TO OFFSET THE TAX BREAK FOR BILLIONAIRES 
Is it superior? Not always.. but as with any investment diversification, TAX optimization also needs to be considered. Tax avoidance is basically part of life when you have sizeable $$ income. That is where Roth comes in as one of your TOOL. The point is.. you shouldn't be limited to one type of tax advantage retirement account. If possible, maximize 401k and Roth and also have brokerage accounts. This will give you maximum freedom NOW and pay tax how you wish later on in life when you are no longer working. PS..having Roth and brokerage.. you can easily move pretax 401k to Roth at your own page prior to RMD age.
Guaranteed, the TRUMP TAX will make us all poorer by year's end.
My angst is because you claim to have experienced and knowledge… but then make statements that are either wrong, or at least misleading. For example, you just said, “a tariff is an expense to the consumer like a tax.” No, a tariff is not “like” a tax, a tariff IS A TYPE OF TAX. Google it. The way you word it, you make it sound like a business expense and seem to distance it from being a tax, when it literally is an extra tax. You also make statements like, “needless government positions”… but then reveal in a different comment that you don’t know if the cuts were efficient or not! I don’t know anyone who wants higher taxes or wants to see needless government spending. And to your point, there are many differing opinions on what we want the government to do or not do. My point is to then discuss those issues. But to defend DOGE’s cuts to the government… claiming that they eliminated needless waste… when the reality is that DOGE’s cuts were not researched and themselves were very inefficient! You claim efficiency is important, but then applaud the most inefficient action taken. From reading your comments, you seem to dive into the details when it fits your narrative, but then quickly switch to a very broad brush and downplay… or perhaps even ignore the details that should really matter.
>BREAKING: TAX BULL DOES NOT INCLUDE EXEMPTION FOR TIPS King bullshitter
>REPUBLICAN TAX BILL RAISES DEBT LIMIT BY $4 TRILLION Tariffs for debt service and they still have to raise the cap Bigly fucked, they are.
Can we all just start calling it what it is? THE LARGEST TAX INCREASE ON AMERICAN CONSUMERS IN OUR LIFETIMES!!! 10% TAX ON ALL GOODS FROM ALL COUNTRIES. 30% TAX ON ANYTHING FROM CHINA. Where's all the Fox news hosts heads exploding from this "big government" tax increase? Where's all the outrage?
I need a place to rant about conservative minds real fast because they really think this was a “win”. A win how? The entire point of the tariffs was to reduce americas reliance on chinese goods, and bring manufacturing jobs to the USA. With the 145% tarriff that did not signal alarms for companies to start shifting manufacturing to the US and was quickly turning into a shelves are empty scenario. Not only did we not bring manufacturing jobs to the US, not only did we not refuce reliance on chinese made goods, we are now going to TAX american consumers at min 30% (itll increase cuz business need their profit margins) which is higher than biden era. America got their asses handed to them on this whole month long event and youd think that they were the victors based on how conservatives are acting. So much winning yet, america lost in every aspect
CAR LOAN TAX DEDUCTION lolololol does the congressional red team know about this?
TARIFF'S ARE A TAX! What wasn't working for you? Stock market highs? Low unemployment? What is the point of your sacrifice? What are you expecting to gain? And yes, I can blame Trump for all the above. He's literally using his job to profit billions off of you and me.We're far beyond Clinton getting $200,000 for a speech or Obama getting a book deal.
Lol where is the win? The tariff went up and then came somewhat down... There's no win here, it achieved nothing.... Like say an iPhone cost 1000 before, then it went to 2000, you didn't buy it because it's too expensive. So then they reduced the price to 1300... Is that a massive win for you? Are u gonna run to the store to buy the 1300 iPhone that was 1000 previously? A reminder, the 30% tariffs are PAID BY AMERICANS to import from China. It's literally a TAX from the US GOVERNMENT on AMERICAN IMPORTERS, which gets passed to the AMERICAN CONSUMER
WOWEE ONLY 54 PERCENT TAX (TARIFFS) ON Americans for foreign goods! WHAT A BARGAIN
WE WILL NOT PAY THR TRUMP TAX. Time for the 99% to start acting like the 1%.
Trading would be impossible if you were taxed on the $100k win - your profit the end of the year is all that matters - all the more reason to not mess with options and just stack stocks and then borrow against them TAX FREE whenever you need capital
I actually tried to post a detailed response that got blocked by Reddit… maybe because I mentioned a certain president. I didn’t use any nicknames or bad language. LOL! Here’s part of my response. “Major credit downgrade” for the US is unlikely mainly due to how credit ratings are US centric. The credit rating agencies: Standard & Poor's (S&P), Moody's Investor Service (Moody's), and Fitch Ratings, are intricately tied to Wall Street and the US Treasuries. Everybody talked about a “major” credit downgrade in 1987 and even more in 2008. Neither time did it happen. In fact, the US didn’t even experience a downgrade in credit rating during the Great Depression. Credit is relative. It’s not as pure as most believe it to be. The federal reserve knows that what’s happening is not a product of normal economic cycling and therefore, can’t be resolved by mere manipulation of interest rates, which is long term weapon. The current US administration is trying to devalue the US dollar to make refinancing of the federal deficit easier at a lower interest rate. The biggest mistake here is that the federal reserve must keep inflation and unemployment in check. If inflation rises, the only weapon the federal reserve has to moderate the situation is to INCREASE interest rates, but this slows economic growth and tends to increase unemployment. LOWERING the Fed fund rate to lower interest rates would increase the monetary supply, increase inflation further and takes a long time to stimulate the economy (years). This is not a monetary supply problem in the US and Powell knows it. This is the largest TAX increase in US history.
So, I am "anti-American" because I see that a massive tariff TAX on US importers will lead to higher prices and inflation? By the way, tariffs are a regressive tax,which harm the poor and working class disproportionately, who are the very people Potus is claiming to help.
Boys boys you all can keep getting mad..but states will start rolling out a NO INCOME TAX ON CAPITAL GAINS bills very soon.Within next 5 years 50% of the state will have a no income tax on capital gains.You will fucking do nothing about it.Get rich or perish.Are you not on this forum to get rich the easy way..you fucking hypocrites
By the time day one donny shows his hand we'll have reverse tariffs where we don't even pay the US government the **IMPORT TAX** and instead send the tariff directly to china.
is rambling about some absolute nonsense today. Can't believe people look up to this piece of shit. What the fuck is this? THE PROBLEM WITH EVEN A “TINY” TAX INCREASE FOR THE RICH, WHICH I AND ALL OTHERS WOULD GRACIOUSLY ACCEPT IN ORDER TO HELP THE LOWER AND MIDDLE INCOME WORKERS, IS THAT THE RADICAL LEFT DEMOCRAT LUNATICS WOULD GO AROUND SCREAMING,“READ MY LIPS,” THE FABLED QUOTE BY GEORGE BUSH THE ELDER THAT IS SAID TO HAVE COST HIM THE ELECTION. NO, ROSS PEROT COST HIM THE ELECTION! IN ANY EVENT, REPUBLICANS SHOULD PROBABLY NOT DO IT, BUT I’M OK IF THEY DO!!! - Mango
WOULD GRACIOUSLY ACCEPT 'TINY' TAX INCREASE FOR RICH Why he like that… tiny tax energy
Please say it correctly. Slapping a 10% TAX on Americans where before there was a 3,3%(or so) tax is so much winning that we mere mortals don't have the mental abilities to understand it!
Why would the UK agree to lower its tariff when the US will hit then with a 10% TAX anyway?
We all know how obsessed 🥭 is with trade deficits. He thinks this means countries are “ripping us off.” This is not the case. It simply means we buy more goods from them, than they buy from us. Take Sri Lanka for example. This country has 1/15th the population of the US. The GDP is 85 billion for Sri Lanka and 27 trillion for the US. The cost of living/labor there is also magnitudes less than here. WE BENEFIT from this by importing cheap goods since we have more wealth/higher cost of living. People who have less, spend less. Rich benefit from the poor. This has always been the case. You can’t have it both ways. This is how it works. Imagine you are buying flowers from someone at a freeway exit. You pay $10 for the flowers, and are running a trade made deficit with that individual now. You are buying more from them, than they are buying from you. Now, an orange man sees this, and thinks “That guy selling flowers, is ripping me off by selling things I don’t sell, for things I couldn’t sell for that price. Let’s charge a 100% tax on anyone who buys from them” The U.K. trade deal limits tariffs to 10% for the first 100k cars, then it goes up to 25%. This is actually one of the ONLY countries we have a trade surplus with, and we are still going to charge ourselves a TAX on things we buy from them. If this is the line of thinking and understanding of trade from our own government, we are DONE FOR. If this is how 🥭 views trade with countries who buy more from us, than we do from them, imagine what the “deals” with countries who buy less from us will be….
I don't think ppl on here - or in general - really grasp the magnitude of what is happening. It's not about getting trade deals done. If you think that solves our problems and things go back to normal market, you're financially and economically illiterate. What we saw today, and the reason why the markets are sitting exactly where they were 3 days ago, is because everyone now knows tariffs aren't a bargaining tool. Flat 10% on the UK and admittedly that is the best "deal" anyone is going to get because we have a fucking trade SURPLUS with them. I still don't think people really understand tariffs. You, me, your mother, your friend - WE all pay the tariff. Manufacturing jobs are not coming back to the US. It is still cheaper to produce oversees with tariffs than what you would have to pay someone stateside to do the work. So tariffs are literally just an EXTRA TAX on us, the consumers. Nothing will change, everything will just be more fucking expensive. And don't get me started on the bond market. The days of interest rates sub 3% are gone. 0% APR financing is gone. The ripple effect this will have is huge - at a time when we will be paying an ADDITIONAL TAX on all foreign produced goods. All the while, foreign and domestic investors are moving their capital to other safe havens. The dollar as the de facto global currency will be gone in 5 years. Even the shit we can buy domestic will be more expensive. Let's take a car for instance. If a flat 10% on all foreign cars is in place, a $50,000 car now becomes $55,000. The guy making the car here isn't going to keep his at $50,000 - he's going to raise it to $54,000. He's still cheaper than the foreign car, but just increased his own profits at the expense of the consumer. This stupid fucking idea that these "trade deals" are some how winning or that things go back to normal when they are in place is pure retardation and shows a complete lack of basic economic literacy. And the damage done is not something that can be reversed by the next incoming president. This will have long, long lasting ramifications. So enjoy the gains you make off your 3 0dte SPY calls each time it hits 565. You truly, truly don't understand what is happening at a basic, fundamental level.
The dysfunction of interest rates is so intangible it's hard to perceive the scale of the problem. Why haven't we had a disaster that bad ever since? You mean the Fed being too late to lower short term rates is that much worse than the economy being intentionally shut down in 2020? It's a bigger deal that the shock of zero tariffs to a humongous TAX in importing any and all raw materials needed for the goods everyone uses? I think it all boils down to aggregate confidence. Somehow everyone starting thinking the same thing - "things are bad right now" and panic sold all their assets in 2008 based on what they heard on TV. We are in the inverse of that where we have bad fundamentals but there is so much overconfidence that people are being optimistic and buying the dip.
TARIFFS ON IMPORTS ARE PAID BY AMERICANS. THEY ARE A TAX INCREASE ON THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS. I typed that in big letters, just so you don't miss anything. Trump just raised your taxes. And you're too slow-witted to realize that fact.
BUT THE PRESIDENT AND HIS CABINET SAID IT'S NOT A TAX ON THE CONSUMER AND EVERYTHING HE SAYS IS TRUE !!!! /s
Ok, Trump is stupid if he thinks this is a good deal. Seems everything he touches is TAX TAX TAX for us.
Here's the deal - the market was pricing in trade deals that would roll back tariffs. This shows that tariffs are staying in these trade deals, which is a TAX ON THE AMERICAN CONSUMER. This is not good for GDP, consumer spending, or inflation. We kinda fucked boys.
10:01 🥭 “No TAX on gainz from $DRUMP coin!”
> *”NO TAX ON TIPS OR OVERTIME, WORK HARDER YOU FOOKEN POORS*” No lie, I literally just started loading up on OT.
"NO TAX ON SENIORS" is age discrimination
🥭: We are making great progress on “The One, Big, Beautiful Bill.” Our Economy is doing well, but it’s going to BOOM in a way never seen before. We are going to do NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON SENIORS’ SOCIAL SECURITY, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, and much more. It will be the biggest Tax Cut for Middle and Working Class Americans by far, and it is time for Main Street to WIN. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Perfect time to remind you 🥭 NEEDS the ~~tariffs~~ **raised middle class IMPORT TAX** to provide the imaginary revenues that his massive **billionaire** tax cuts will lose on.
Like everything else it makes very little sense. This one is such a head scratcher because I really want to know how he thinks this will work. It's just data cobbled together with a million points of contact. Most of the post is done here, but we can literally cloud edit these days so am American asst editor can assemble dailies in Ireland and have it finished here. Pixar can design animations here and contract the renders out to anyone. Half your crew could be American but a studio isn't flying grip trucks to Hungary. I've worked in post production for 20 years and this "plan" short circuits my brain. The Bond franchise is an American production that generally takes place anywhere but here. WHAT DO YOU TAX? It's like taxing the concept of a shattered window but every window breaks differently. nd all of it is because studios chase tax credits around the world and only want to put lots of money behind big IP hoping to hit a scratch off for better quarterlies. I understand why incentives exist and why they're chased. If he proposed requiring studios to pay taxes that are the difference between hiring foreign crew and Americans even that would only make sense if you squint. They'll still do it to save on travel, or just make less. I understand California not wanting to subsidize a highly profitable industry, but as Newsom's proposal makes clear they have to bite the bullet to claw back whatever they reasonably can. Which will affect the investment shifted to Georgia or wherever else. Even at it's most basic level, Netflix isn't going to pay double to stream something foreign. When the library dwindles and they lose customers, then they'll be the ones begging for a handout.
US HOUSE LIKELY TO KILL EV TAX CREDIT, SPEAKER JOHNSON SAYS TSLA was a net loss company in Q1 excluding credits 
It’s crazy that people just… don’t even know what a tariff is. Obviously Trump, but a lot of you folks in here too. A tariff is an IMPORT TAX, levied on goods imported to a port of entry. They are very specifically laid out legally and are collected by CBP according to the US tariff schedule. You cannot, with the way US law currently is written, “tariff” a service or intangible good. It is *impossible* to tariff streamed movies. It’s like saying you will wage war on internet piracy. Like actual, literal war with tanks and artillery. Trump is talking out of his ass. The Executive does not have the ability to unilaterally interject himself into licensing agreements. If he did do so, it’s going to be struck down in SCOTUS which is bought and sold by the highest bidder (rather than along strictly ideological lines). This has no actual long term impact on Netflix or any other streaming company. It has short-term news impact, but it won’t have absolutely any regulatory impact on them. This is classic Trump bullshit; exactly the same shit he did his first term.
This is a perfect example of how the Trump admin hones in on a problem but bungles the fix. The reality is, film and television production HAS been moving away from the US. I work in the industry and it's a legitimate problem. The other reality is throughout history, we have stimulated the industry (on state and federal levels) with huge success multiple times. How? **THROUGH TAX BREAKS.** Louisiana, New York, Georgia and New Mexico are model examples of how this can work. They incentivized production through tax credits and each at one point was a powerhouse location for productions. This is the SINGLE biggest and most effective method of attracting production. It has never been rocket science. It works. It also creates a ton of jobs and floods money into states. There is a genuine trickle down effect into the local economy when a studio brings thousands of people in who need to be fed, clothed and housed. Federally, the NEA offered grants (obviously that's not happening anymore) and the tax code allowed an immediate deduction up to $15 million on US productions (Section 181 - which was killed in Trump's last tax bill). Tariffs are a ridiculous way of fixing this problem, especially when people know how to actually fix it...
"These democrats want to TAX you and SPEND your money!" Y'know. Like some kind of...functioning government of a... healthy country.
> HASSETT: TRUMP DOESN'T SUPPORT A TAX INCREASE ON THE WEALTHY Imagine being middle class and poor 😔
Im actually SHOCKED how many bears forgot that 99% of shareholders are boomers that have 10x'd since Obama and open their broker apps once a year near TAX time. What great sell off is going to happened if you guys own 0% of the market value!? lol What power do you have to shift a tide? Yapping on reddit doesnt move money bro LMFAO
I just heard an unedited clip from a Trump economic advisor who is STILL saying that other countries will pay the tariffs on industries with inelastic demand. Sure, they will pay the reciprocal tariffs put in place by their countries but that money goes to their government — not to the US! The tariffs put in place by Trump will be paid by US companies and consumers and the money goes into the US government general fund. It is a TAX paid by Americans. The lies and gas lighting are insane.
Tariffs are a TAX. How the fuck are they gonna boost the stock market
Uneducated comment... Dividend paying cash value whole-life insurance is the best and most secure way to store cash. It has been proven for the last few CENTURIES. I'm not talking about universal life insurance... That's totally crap and is tied to the market, meaning you're not really investing, you'respeculating... But a dividend paying cash value whole-life insurance policy is completely different. All stocks, IRAs, 401k accounts are speculating, not investing... The market is volatile, and your portfolio goes down and up daily. NOBODY knows if a stock will be worth something or go to $0 in any given moment... Nobody. That's called speculating... Just remember that. Now, an insurance policy is NOT an investment either... It's simply a way to store cash with the highest protection against government and malicious actors. CASH you can then use to buy assets and other investments. Plus, it pays a death benefit to your loved ones!... Always buy assets that produce cash flow or appreciate in price over time. Never buy liabilities. Your money is NEVER tied or correlated with any markets like real-estate or the S&P 500 like an IRA. So there's no volatility. Your cash value is always liquid and available for you to use. Unlike a 401k or other qualified investment vehicles... Your cash value NEVER goes down unless you withdraw it. In fact, it grows and compounds every month TAX FREE. Your cash value can also be used as collateral, unlike the money in your savings account... If you have $50k in a savings account. It's not growing. It's losing value thanks to inflation and bank fees. If you have $50k in a cash value whole-life insurance policy and need to spend $20k, you don't have to withdraw it. You can borrow against it. You take a loan out using your cash value as collateral and you get your $20k while the $50k is untouched and still growing. Read books like "Live Your Life Insurance" and "Busting the Life Insurance lies" to learn more... ✌️Good luck.
He’s just mad that they’re showing the tariff for what it is. A TAX!!
The administration has told you not to believe what your eyes and ears tell you... about the itemized invoice for your purchase WHAR DA TAX GO DUR DUR DUR
Amazon already lists tax, why shouldn’t it list all the TAX?
YOU MEAN PEOPLE MAY SEE HOW TARIFFS ACT A TAX? https://preview.redd.it/e6g5t1d51sxe1.png?width=560&format=png&auto=webp&s=e555b3d8379310ee73a6339360f61d8ff3ee8afe OH...THAT'S NOT GOOD....JEFF..."JUST STOP!" DJT
Good chuckle when she tried to pivot to “oh tell them about TAX CUTS” hahahah
THESE POLITICIANS ARE ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. JUST BEEN ON VACATION FOR TWO WEEKS AND THIS ADMINISTRATION HAS NOT PASSED ONE MEANINGFUL BILL IN ONE HUNDRED DAYS AND THEY WON’T BE ABLE TO PASS THE TAX CUT BILL UNTIL AFTER JULY 4th? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He's using a fake emergency to do fiscal policy and TAX the POPULATION. He is a Tryant that needs to be dethroned.
THIS IS A USE TAX IN DISGUISE! The lowest incomes consume the most of their income? The wealthy invest it which won’t be taxed if they get their way but your food and clothing will be much higher. They don’t give a eff about you or anyone else except themselves.
Well, you see, everyone will simply use their BIGLY TAX SAVINGS to buy all of the AMERICAN products they want from the AMERICAN factories they work in and since NO ONE will pay ANY TAXES, the money will all go straight up to the AMERICAN FACTORYOWNERS and the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT will... cease to exist outside of the function of wielding military power to soft- or hard-invade other countries to expropriate their mineral wealth and surveil and police the working class to make sure they keep going to their factory jobs.
lol “many people’s income tax will be reduced … eliminated”!! hmmmm let me find my other brain cell to combine with this one to think about this… income tax is based on income. So lower income? eliminated? Oh then that means NO INCOME?! oh I get it! Red hatters you voted for LOWER INCOME, so low it could be zero! Oops computing resources of 2nd brain cell now kicks in… general mass gets lower tax cus earning less. Rick folk… “that million dollar spare change was not earned by me, so cannot be considered my income”! NO TAX!
If they remove income tax and replace it with a tariff tax. Then it’s A FLAT TAX. No one wants this but the rich. When the poor or rich by a product you pay the same tariffs.
HE'S DOING IT FOR THE TAX PAYER MAKING 200k OR LESS! HE'S ALL ABOUT THE LITTLE GUY! 
Awesome, however they are 30 years late. They DON'T have the KNOW HOW power that China already has. I wish and hope to be wrong, nevertheless I should start increasing education level this spark creativity, investing any amount in a place where there is no education, talent or knowledge in a specific subject the chances of failure are exponentially high. Best example: Deep Seek and OPEN Ai Deep Seek trained their chat bot with a fraction of what open ai did, and the experts are saying that DS is equal or better. Again: TAX THE RICH and invest in EDUCATION (free schools and universities)
Yeah, I have been waiting for you. In Late 2017 after the TAX CUTS AND JOBS act passed, companies did so many buybacks that stocks were rising at 40 percent. That means any Tom Dick and Harry could take out a HELOC line of credit or a second mortgage, and put it all in the stock market. To stop that from happening, Sir Mango started his TARIFFS ON STEEL AND ALUMINIUM, on January 26th 2018. THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE IT STARTED.
TAX FREE WINNING, but no benefit if you lose monies
How to Stop Inflation For Dummies: Take money out of the economy. There’s a few methods to do this, one is high unemployment. That’s no good though. High interest rates is another as it gets people to stop borrowing, takes money out of the economy. There’s another method that we keep saying to do but they never try. TAX THE FUCK OUT OF THE RICH!
It has not gone as expected. MAYBE START WITH TAX CUTS AND A BALANCED BUDGET
Sooo…what about all the TAX REVENUE FROM TARIFFS that we NEEDED to REDUCE THE SLEEPY JOE DEFICIT (caps on purpose ) and WHAT ABOUT THE FENTANYL?? I guess now we just LET IN THE FENTANYL BUT KEEP OUT THE LEGAL TAX-paying residents. Joke’s ON US! Insider trading is the name of this game. These swings are NOT NORMAL IN A NORMAL ECONOMY. This will be studied for years to come in the conservo colleges that are ALLOWED to remain as THE ART OF THE SELF-DEALING.
You're the one denying reality because you don't like what's being Said lol! It exists because it's pushed. CNN even got caught on hidden camera admitting that climate fear was the next thing that they were going to push after covid. Do you not understand c02? If you want to go green then you'd want an increase in c02 because plants use it to grow. It's literally what grows our food. And c02 levels under trump DECREASED after he took off massive amount of expensive and burdensome regulations. The entire thing is a scam and you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. You want less plants and food on the planet? Because a decrease in "fossil fuels" means a decrease in growth for plants. "Updated models...fools ignore an entire field of science" WRONG AGAIN AS YOU ALWAYS ARE LOLLL. THE ENTIRE FIELD OF SCIENCE DOESNT AGREE AND ANYONE TELLING YOU THAT IS LYING TO YOU. SHOWS HOW YOU BELIEVE ANY LIES TOLD TO YOU BY A CERTAIN GROUP OF PPL. It also shows that you STILL don't understand that people creating these models or telling you false "settled science" are being funded by the government AND corporations who are also benefiting from climate change scams by getting working class tax payer dollars to sell anything with "climate change", "green", or "green energy" attached to it. It's a scam for the rich to steal from working class and you have absolutely no clue. Dems told us that we needed to buy EVs to save the planet until they hated Elon and traded in their tesla for gas cars. It's all bs. $7,500 of working class tax payer dollars going to corporations to give a discount on a 100k EV. Why should struggling working class people be funding wealthy corporations? Because CLIMATE CHANGE! LOLLLLL THEN DEMS BRAINWASHED VOTERS CRY ABOUT CORPORATIONS NOT PAYING THEIR FAIR SHARE WHILE THE DEMS THAT THEY VOTED FOR ARE STEALING THEIR TAX DOLLARS TO GIVE TO THOSE VERY SAME CORPORATIONS LOLLLL. THEIR VOTERS ARE SO MIND CONTROLLED THAT THEY HAVE NO CLUE THEYRE BEING LIED TO AND STOLEN FROM. YOURE WELCOME FOR EDUCATING YOU WHEN YOUR BUNK GOVERNMENT FUNDED SOURCES WOULDNT TELL YOU THE TRUTH🙂
Congress gave him the tariff power they can take it away. Tariffs are an import TAX, congress has the authority to tax not the executive branch. They passed a law giving him the ability to do it under emergency acts which is why he keeps declaring emergency’s so he can place tariffs. Read your constitution.
BUT WAIT!!! I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO PAY THE TAX TO IMPORT GOODS TO AMERICA! WTF /s - I'll leave this here for you particularly dense mother fuckers.
Yes. The whole point here is that everyone but the ultra rich suffer. That is the whole point of tariffs for Trump. When you look at what is a reasonable level of taxing, you have to look at which proportion of your income that gets spent on literal life necessities like food and housing. If you have a flat tax of 20% that may sound fair, but after that tax is deducted - how much of what is left must go to life necessities? If you're poor, maybe 100% or more of what's left after 20% taxes must go towards necessities. The cost of actual life necessities for a billionaire is the same as for the poor, meaning after 20% tax and paid of life necessities, the billionaire still get millions left over. That is why practically every western economy employ progressive tax. Now what do you think happens if income tax is abolished in favor of tariffs? Cost of life necessities will rise enormously. What does it matter for someone making $1500 a month to not have to deduct 20% in income tax ($300) if the tariffs makes the cost of necessities rise to a point where they add over $300 in expenditure a month? At the same time, the billionaire who doesn't have to pay 20% laughs all the way, because instead of paying millions in tax, they only have to pay an extra couple of hundred or thousand bucks a month in food. TARIFFS ARE A TAX THAT HIT THE POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS INSANELY AND *DISPROPORTIONALLY* HARD FOR THE PURPOSE OF ALLOWING THE ULTRA RICH TO GET RICHER. Every American needs to understand that no matter how you spin this, that is the actual outcome.
Hahaha Australia signs new massive contract to sell more gas to china. But still collects NO TAX at all. Australian citizens freeze every winter & continue to have THE MOST EXPENSIVE GAS IN THE WORLD!!! We get fuc&ed.
You used the word TAX. That does not compute. Call it a "individual sales tariff" and they will eat it up.
“The USA is getting RICH ON TAXES ON NORMIES SO MY RICH FRIENDS PAY LESS TAX!!”
Aka we've indirectly created.... A POLL TAX!!!! Congrats America, ya fucked ya self!!
You haven't lost "money" if you don't sell. You own the same number of stocks you did before the price moved. When you buy a stock, you aren't buying part of the "market cap"... what the market thinks it's worth. You're actually buying the retained earnings, and paying a premium of whatever the market thinks the future dividends and growth are worth. A large part of what you're paying for, whenever you buy in, was "hopes and wishes." That's unavoidable... it's how stuff gets priced. C'est la vie. But how the company actually itself does, the amount of money it makes and how fast it grows retained earnings.... really has absolutely nothing to with how the stock does from day to day, unless something actually changes about the company or the viability of it's business model (and people price it in against their hopes and wishes). But, you still own the stock. If it pays a dividend, you get a yield of what they actually pay against what you actually paid. You haven't actually "lost money" unless the company itself breaks. All that has changed is the price, the "exchange rate" between the stock and cash. Unless the company itself "breaks," you can't actually lose "net" money unless you actually sell. Also, remember that your broker (there is a disclaimer somewhere) shows you profit/loss on investments against the TAX basis, which does not reflect the impact of reinvested dividends, and understates your returns.
Hey, try reading a book every now and then. The Boston tea party didn’t happen because taxes were raised (not tariffs, taxes. You don’t charge tariffs on yourself, and we were part of the British empire at the time) it happened because the East India company was allowed to sell tea in North America TAX FREE. So the smugglers that were making a killing smuggling in tea to get around the tax were the ones that were upset over the law. The Boston Tea Party had nothing to do with tariffs and nothing to do with increasing taxes.

LOL TAX PENALTY 
You could, but if you have a Costco membership, just buy a physical gold from a store or online. TAX FREE
they CAN'T think more than 5 meters ahead... what is going on right now? yields up, debt to come and a freakin TAX BILL on the way (that would lower tax income). If the fed starts printing now or harsh cutting what you think is gonna happen? It's a downward spiral into stagflation and/or loosing credit rating and therefore spiraling trasuries down af

TAX selling is too much! everyone will have to cash out to pay their taxes today
Because Tariff's are an "IMPORT TAX" placed on the IMPORTER so the charges get passed on to you. How many times does this need to be said before people start actually listening.
People invest in, say VOO. They DRIP like they are told. They get new shares. These cost of these new shares doesn't make the value of their account go up (it comes out of the spot price) but their TAX basis goes up. The new shares are shown by the broker as if they were newly invested money, when they are not. You basically only see "green" as long as the market keeps going up, even though you are "ahead." As soon as the market drops, you see "red" long before you have lost anything but unrealized gain or previously realized gain, and lose your shit, because the broker tells you that you invested more than you really did.
**TAX DAY** is upon us, people. Be careful with those options this week.
Nope. Just tired of the USA being the bank of America. MY TAX DOLLARS Should be used wisely. Although all taxes are theft.
Thank you for asking the question, and being open enough to admit that you might not understand something 100%. I'll try and explain it as simple as possible. Tariff is a term for a specific importer tax. That tax is paid by the importer of a product, not the country where the product is coming from. For example, say I am a seller of shirts in the US but the shirts are imported from china. If there is a tariff of 100% on Chinese shirts, that means that when I bring in a shirt of let's say $10 worth, I also pay my own government (the US government) a TAX (tariff) on it of $10 (100%). China gets no more or no less money. That additional charge - I either have to weather it (less profits), or, when I sell the shirt, I need to increase my prices on the consumer to make up the money. So, if I believe that tariffs are too high, I think to myself, "ok, how can I get shirts that cost less? Do I import from somewhere else, or do I just manufacture them in America?". The debate (though I'm sure it is now obvious) is on what the importer and the consumer behaviour will be with increased tariffs.
IT WAS ONE TIME AND SHE WOULDN’T SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT THE TAX BILL
