Well someone has to pay for the 35 trillion dollar debt. If Amazon increases prices to much they’ll get less sales so they have to eat a bunch of the tariffs.

"Fascism" supports the weak over the strong; tells the weakest that they're the strongest based on their selfless slave-like obedience to a so-called "greater cause"

Slavery is freedom- a mark of virtue, the weak finding strength from their submission.

A functional system for the slaves at the bottom and everybody is happy with it.

The sado-masochistic erasure of the individual resulting in a prostrating gimp - because the fact remains that peasantry will for-ever be Built for Big Black Cock since there are no freebee spots in the pimp hierarchy

“Essentials” are usually made an in America. This is just kikery pushing up the price of living — rent, food, clothing & essentials. Kikes want to make life as difficult as possible for everyone else. They derive extreme pleasure from inflicting pain on others.
All of which is why the age of American pogroms cannot begin soon enough…not to mention the fact that they rape kids.

>>512625934
Another way to look at it is many households will need to come up with an extra $100 - $200 a month. That's not good for the economy.

>>512623842
people dont need to get their essentials on amazon. They can get them from local stores just fine if it's actual essentials we're talking about, which brings us nicely to the real issue: that this is jewspeak and a vague and broad definition of essential that no normal person would agree with

eggs are down

>>512623842
More or less. The point of tariffs is to make foreign imports so much more expensive that it starts making sense to buy domestically produced goods that otherwise couldn't compete. At least in theory.

Amazon isn't "essentials" groceries are

and housing?

>>512627657
So basically increasing prices for the lower/middle class, having them foot the bill

>>512627657
yeah and those goods will be more expensive to make in america thus raising prices

>>512627679
I can't tell if you don't understand what the OP image says or if you're still just trying to pilpul.
It doesn't say that essentials across the board are up

>>512627827
>>512627883
Yeah, It's basically a tax on foreign goods. Of course it also hurts the exporting countries since less people will be able to buy their products, but the average American is the one who has to pay more at the end of the day.

>>512628864
8% averaged over his entire term. They have gone up by 1% so far, which is lower than inflation e.g. houses are getting cheaper.

Amazon Essentials is literally Amazon's brand name for their product line. Usually cheap Chinese products of varying quality sold under this banner.

Why do you faggots have to lie all the time? The inflation under Biden was caused by Trump's terrible handling of covid. By the end of Biden's term, it was back near when his term started due to biden's inflation reduction act.

It's a big jew scam. Trump adds tariffs. Companies raise prices. Trump "makes a deal" and removes tariffs 3 months later. Companies keep prices high and bank the difference and use it on stock buybacks. You keep paying the higher prices. Stonks go up and high roller jews that own the markets pocket the money.

>>512632630
Finally a non-retard who understands what's actually happening

>>512622000 (OP)
Here's a situation I'd like for you to address OP. Here in Canada. We start to impose tariffs on certain products depending on how much purchasing our suppliers were doing from outside sources.

Take eggs for example.

Lets say a supplier purchases 1 million eggs from the USA. People keep buying them. Now Canada says, if you buy more than 1 million eggs from the US to sell, then you're getting tariffed.

The supplier goes

>well shit guess it makes more sense to buy from Canadian egg producers now

So the supplier goes to buy from the Canadian companies.

The Canadian companies cannot outcompete the sheer volume of eggs the US can produce.

So lets take away the concept of these tariffs. Instead, suppliers now only purchase from US companies. Its cheaper after all, the sheer quantity of eggs is massive in comparison to Canadian producers. It easily outcompetes them.

Lets assume this was happening for 40 years. Do you think less money would have gone to Canadian producers of eggs? Because guess what, less money would have gone to those producers. Further pushing out their want/need to produce. American eggs are better priced.

So now in this hypothetical. Assuming Canada never had these tariffs over the decades. And being entirely reliant on eggs produced from the USA.

How do you think prices would have looked in Canada for a carton of eggs when the USA decided they needed to cull all their hens?

>>512632841
Also I'll tell you this right now. When the Americans were freaking out over egg prices. I was still buying a carton of large eggs for $3.60 CAD kek

>>512632630

Our egg price issue was solely due to the outgoing CDC culling our chickens for no fucking reason over bird flu while Canada barely did any culls. It was one last way for the sadists from the former administration to hurt us before leaving. We stopped the culling and now egg prices are fine because bird flu is a nothingburger.
