The Switch 2 costs $450 US. — The Tariff on China (where most Switches are made) is 54% (www.bbc.com/news/article...) — So Switch 2 in US should now cost $450 + 1.54 = $693? — Is that right? Ouch.

With 85-90% of Apple's hardware assembly based in China and the rest in India and Vietnam, the Trump administration's new tariff policies—imposing 54%, 26%, and 46%, respectively—will significantly raise costs for hardware exports to the US. If Apple keeps prices unchanged, its

With 54% tariffs on goods from China, seems essentially impossible there won't be Apple price increases in the U.S. — If this holds, of course.

I think they asked ChatGPT to calculate the tariffs from other countries, which is why the tariffs make absolutely no fucking sense. They're simply dividing the trade deficit we have with a country with our imports from that country, or using 10%, whichever is greater. [image]

After the speech, Trump signed an Executive Order to end the de minimis loophole from China. The problem is he already signed that 2 months ago, to occur once systems are ready. So: 1. the systems are ready 2. this ends de minimis from everywhere 3. they forgot the previous EO

Currently, “de minimis” shipments account for 92% of all cargo entering the U.S. China takes advantage of de minimis to dump billions of cheap goods into our economy that are subsidized through China's lack of labor and pollution standards.

The reason the de minimus exemption exists is that it's not worth the cost to process and collect a tariff on some tiny package. You have to pay customs agents and operate systems that cost more than the revenue. The “government efficiency” administration is getting rid of it.
