Quite simply, China IS NOT the only game in town, you moron!
Are you unaware that LG has been manufacturing in India for over 20 years?
Or that Whirlpool, Haier, Siemen's, Carrier, and Panasonic all have appliance manufacturing in India as well?
Or that Samsung has manufacturing facilities in both So. Korea and India?
Or that Siemen's also has them in Germany?
Or that Mitsubishi and many others manufacture appliances in Japan?
Need I go on?
Now, are you so economically ignorant that you don't believe that EVERY business owner who finds that his source for imports now costs him significantly more, and will then seek out alternatives to avoid that new tariff? What business experience do YOU have to dismiss such an obvious reality out of hand?
Obviously, it's only myopic dopes like you who hate Trump that are most susceptible to the biased **** you're fed at CNN, and you would never bother to mistrust those intentional lies you're told if it fits with your idiotic agenda to help promote the lies and ignorance of Kamaltoe!
I am aware of all that. I am also aware that, in the home appliance market, every other country beyond China is a bit-player in terms of the volume of production.
The fact remains that tariffs are ALWAYS effectively passed on to the consumer after they are paid by the importer and NEVER paid by the country of origin.
What's your degree in @Zeets2 ?
