Economy Trump's April 2nd Tariffs

[fingercuffs]

We got a consumption tax of sorts in Canada. It's called HST. Sucks balls.

When did that kick in? Is it a tax on top of normal sales tax?

 

[Phisher]

Wasn't the idea to abolish income tax and to replace it with tariffs? That's what my American friend told me.

He and his surrogates are still lying about the tariffs being paid by foreign countries.

I have no idea how long they can keep this nonsense up.

It's a tax that importers have to pay to collect foreign goods when they enter the country.

They transfer the cost to customers by increasing prices, and hence sales taxes are proportionally increased as well.

Would you mind answeing my question as to when?

2010.

It's a federal and provincial sales tax combined.

from my understanding It is a drip drip thing in terms of timeline
when tariffs were imposed suppliers already had stock inventory at 'old' prices
once the inventory is sold out the new prices will start to kick in, will have different timelines for different industries and different companies

It's one of the stranger things in politics I've ever seen.

President Donald Trump announced an agreement on Thursday to extend the current 25% tariffs on certain Mexican goods imported to the United States for 90 days. That means the higher 30% tariff that Trump had threatened will be pushed off for at least three months.


Trump said he and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum had a discussion on the phone earlier in the day.


“I have just concluded a telephone conversation with the President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, which was very successful in that, more and more, we are getting to know and understand each other,” Trump said. “The complexities of a Deal with Mexico are somewhat different than other Nations because of both the problems, and assets, of the Border. We have agreed to extend, for a 90 Day period, the exact same Deal as we had for the last short period of time.”

Trump said Mexico would immediately drop its so-called non-tariff trade barriers, but he didn’t specify what changes Mexico would make.

TACO?

You're cross-talking about different things. @Phisher is talking about tariffs apparently but this is not that.
The HST El is talking about is a plain ol' sales tax which is regressive by definition. It's less bad compared with similar tax regimes elsewhere in that lower income folk receive rebates of a portion of the tax collected and it doesn't apply to basic necessities like groceries.

And El, not all provinces use the HST.

A letter is definitely going to stop these drug companies from gouging us.

LOL@ the embarrassingly wrong people.

Who? You know 1600% is impossible and Pfizer would be paying us to take their drugs, right? Which people are you saying are wrong?

 

[fingercuffs]

Even his CULT will find a way to explain this away. Flipping morons.

Not only that drug companies will apparently start paying us to take their drugs.
