  • Sounds like complicity to me: they ate the added expense just long enough to make it seem like tariffs aren’t ruinous to regular people until the media moved on to the next story.

    Now they’re probably going to do the same thing as they did with the supply chain problems during the height of covid: raise prices by more than the extra expense, pocket the profits, and never lower them again even if the expense is removed.

    Corporations will always fleece regular people if you let them and fascists (and a few anarcho-capitalists) like Trump, his administration, and every GOP Senator and Representative will always let them.
