So, it's officially past midnight, which means, IT'S TARIFF TIME! (No, Donald, no!) Stuff from canada and mexico is now gonna cost 25% more, and there's an additional 10% on tariffs from china.
This is gonna make electronics go up, isn't it? So if you're a PC gamer, or you want a new smartphone, handheld, or tablet, you're screwed, and you're gonna have to pay more money now. And I know, i know, some petty SJW is gonna be like HURR DURR, THEY'RE GOING AFTER GAMERS! GAMERS! But yes, as a gamer, I kinda got a beef with this. hardware is already expensive enough these days. I don't wanna have to pay even more. Thankfully i upgraded my PC during the Biden administration and kinda reached a point where I'm gonna be comfortable with what I have for the next few years, but will I make it all the way to 2029 without buying anything new? Probably not. Not with how fast this stuff normally becomes obsolete.
So yeah. Hope you got teched up for now. Because this is gonna suck.
Even with non tech stuff it still sucks. This just sucks all around. And why do we need more jobs? We're at 4% unemployment or thereabouts. As I said, we cant get more jobs without causing inflation. And then this causes inflation. Honestly, if we wanna do anything, we should be investing in UBI, not moar jerbs.
And then Trump is going on deranged crap like fentanyl. Idk why everyone is so obsessed with fentanyl. Just dont do drugs and you'll never even touch it. Either way way for us to start bullying our neighbors for no reason. God, I hate this guy. Like, first term, it was like, whatever, hillary sucked, she kinda deserved to lose, hopefully the public will learn this guy sucks and say "we'll never do that again" next time. This time it was like WHY DID WE ELECT THIS MFER AGAIN WHEN HE'S THIS UNHINGED?!
Yes yes, I know it was inflation, BUT HOW DOES THIS HELP?! IT DOESN'T. Really. I hate how kneejerk stupid this country is sometimes. I admit, the democrats suck. Like, again, I'm not gonna actually defend them too hard and say they were good. But they were better than THIS. At least they were sane. At least they didn't give a middle finger to our allies. At least they didn't actively make inflation worse with their policies. Wtf people? Well, you get what you vote for. Hope you're happy. Morons.
