Tariffs: Making Everything Expensive for Americans, Cheap for the Rest of the World
Here’s a juicy tidbit about tariffs that’s being so conveniently overlooked:
They’re not just jacking up prices for Americans—they're slashing them for the rest of the world.
So here's how it works:
Countries used to selling massive amounts of goods to the U.S. now have a reduced demand. What do they do?
They sell those goods to the rest of the world at lower prices.
Take Australia, for example. They got hit with a modest 10% tariff, and now they're celebrating. Why?
Because we’re paying higher prices, and they’re getting subsidies to make their stuff cheaper for everyone else
So, we’re essentially paying more to prop up the rest of the world. America First? Sure, if by “America” you mean every other country but us.
But hold up. Let’s take this one step further—the era of cheap stuff is officially over.
And I’m just over here rubbing my hands together, waiting for the MAGA girlies who stock up on Shein and H&M to lose their minds when they see their cheap clothes skyrocket in price.
Your favorite fashion indulgence? About to cost you way more, and it’s all because of the guy you voted for.
So, here's to watching the meltdown unfold when they realize their beloved fast fashion is now officially out of reach.
