Americans Are Paying the Bill for Tariffs, Despite Trump’s Claims
Research from the New York Fed confirms that U.S. companies and consumers are bearing tariff costs, despite the president’s assertions otherwise.

Research published on Thursday by economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and Columbia University suggests that, through November 2025, 90 percent of the economic burden of the president’s tariffs fell on U.S. companies and consumers.
The economists reviewed the “incidence” of the tariffs — who ultimately pays the cost of new import taxes. When a good is brought into the country, the importer of record, often an American company, is first responsible for paying the tariff to the U.S. government. But the importer can pass that cost on to others by raising the prices it charges its customers, or by negotiating more favorable contracts with its suppliers.

Would all the ******* MAGAts who continue to believe that the Supply Side Fairy is gonna take care of this please raise their heads?

Ok BV. Let's compare our definitions of Survivorship Bias and why yours is as useless as you. - Liberal Forum Political Chat Room
Deal:
Which scenario is an example of survivorship bias in evaluating business success?Deal: Veghead claimed he already answered this question. LOL. If Veghead proves that he did indeed answer the survivorship multiple choice question below, as the question is written and asked, along with his defense of his answer, then I will agree to never come back. I am permabanned. Gone. Like a fart in the wind. If he cannot, then he is out of here for a month. Additionally, his defense cannot be "Because it fits my definition." That is a claim, not a defense. He is to defend why. His evidence must precede the timestamp upon when this challenge has been agreed upon by both parties. Moreover, he must answer immediately when the mods say "go," That next post. Not the next 600 posts. Either Cannon or Deezer mods.
Exception: I will allow for an exception. If he loses, then I will allow him to stay if he answers it the way it is asked, along with his defense. However, he must do it immediately after the deal has been decided. Not 100 posts later. The very next post of his must be his answer/defense.
A) Believing that reading business books increases revenue after finding many CEOs recommend them.
B) Concluding that most startups fail after analyzing bankrupt companies.
C) Thinking entrepreneurship is easy because most media profiles focus on successful founders.
D) Surveying customers to understand why they chose your product over competitors

because tRump said so
they probably think that after they pay the tax
it will trickle back down to them
how many thousands has tRump promised to send them because of the tariffs?
sad really
but bless your heart for trying

I don't read his OPs anymore, so I have no idea what you are talking about. They were usually, if not always, grounded in TDS from sources that were written by someone with TDS. I have little doubt that has changed. He copy/pastes other people's thoughts, so he doesn't have to come up with any himself. **** him.

isn't the Fed's goal @2-3%
does this mean we'd have deflation if the tariffs weren't in place?
