Crazy how all developing countries want to move away from exporting materials to selling industrialised products but the US wants to go back to focusing on them. Regression in every possible way

Well, Canada can export their ultracheap green Aluminum to the EU, they need it for aeronautics anyway...

courts already overturned Trump's tariffs, you could make a killing by importing and not paying the customs

The problem is that shipping by ship takes many days (weeks?) and the tariff landscape changes almost hourly, so you might ship expecting things to be zero because of court orders, but in a week, the court with sour cream, the taco supreme Court might decide that tariffs are okay, but they need to be bigger.

Thus killing any attempts to actually bring manufacturing to the US.
Artificially Increasing the price of raw materials does not get people to build things here. This will drive more manufacturing away

This will encourage recycling of infinitely recyclable materials. That's good.

This is so dumb. Imagine working in that industry and just looking on in exalted horror as your livelihood wanes while this idiot claims it's for your best.
Yet, they still vote for him and continue their support hahaha. No matter how much Trump fuck them they still continue supporting him.
except if you are the UK, then you can stay at 25% (at least until the orange turd changes his mind)
