  1. Theoretically tariffs of this nature could contribute to the redevelopment of some domestic industry. These particular ones aren't well thought out, and the general economic decline they will cause will likely prevent the type of domestic development that are intended to spur. Maybe @ChickenSandwich can explain why tariffs are needed to offset VAT.
  2. My assumption: The firearms, not stated category means the type wasn't identified at all. The other firearm category is a lump grouping for types that were stated but don't fit in the other categories for whatever reason.
  3. Well.. maybe he meant boom as in literally explode? That seems to be what has happened.
  4. Sorry, he should have been more clear: next time try reading the thing that you're taking the time to take a screen shot off and then upload to Surly before you post it.
  5. Good luck my man. I wish you the best. Every time you start this shit it goes poorly for you. Again, just stay off the internet. It isn't made for you.
  6. No one denies the story is tragic, as are the many murders that occur every fucking day. You got the response because you can't be bothered to read what you're fucking posting. Don't post inflammatory bullshit and you will not get negged. Take responsibility for your actions. Or, as I've said many times before, get off the fucking internet because it isn't a good place for you.
  7. Any moment now @ChickenSandwich will come in and admit he misunderstood what VAT is and how tariffs work.
  8. snakes are quieter (unless they have rattle).
  9. In order to analyze something objectively, you need to have all available information. Based on the below, you're analyzing based on partial information, which is the equivalent to analyzing based upon misinformation. If you can't see that, you're being neither objective nor rational.
  10. It'll actually make it worse. Processed, calorically dense foods will take the place of more nutritionally balanced (and less addictive) whole foods to an even greater extent than they do now.
  11. To help @ChickenSandwich Tariffs are focused on where a product is from. Sales tax and VAT are focused on where a product is intended to be used. Tariffs treat products from other countries differently. Sales Tax and VAT treat products FROM other the countries the same. Sales Tax and VAT differ in how they accomplish that task. Sales Tax focused on transactions and where those transactions take place. VAT focuses on products and where those products are intended to be used. Because sales is applied to transactions, it is possible for the same product to be taxed multiple times. VAT is intended to apply to a product only one time. In conclusion, VAT is not a tariff and does not negatively affect US made goods in comparison to locally made goods.
  12. VAT applies to goods sold in the EU. It doesn't matter where they came from. It doesn't apply to goods sold outside the EU. Texas also does not apply sales tax to goods not sold in Texas. I'm not sure why this is confusing to you.
  13. Texas is ahead of the tariff game with sales tax!
  14. You're a moron.
  15. @Huckleberry šŸ‘€šŸ‘€
  16. Probably the one that makes him feel better about this whole thing and proves this is totally not a moronic exercise in self-destruction.
  17. Just not our night.
  18. Well fuck.
  19. Yes. Yes he is. The infield hits continue.
  20. infield hits are fun.
  21. Good ole infield double.
  22. Maybe we thought this was going to be a drinking competition?
  23. Ok, god hated her. Apparently this guy has the fucking angels from angels in the outfield working with him today. Strikes out Gasparino
