I’m ok myself thank you Jack but I’m not immune to the daily and every increasing suffering on display in my neighbourhood and the CBD street’s.

Worse maybe than the pandemic protests.

Australia is boring. We need some riots to liven things up.

The tariffs will make no difference for us.

They are the same for all countries so it just means the Yanks will pay more not us.

That's not how it works Bobby.

In 2024, the United States' apparent consumption of aluminum totaled about 4.3 million metric tons.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Apparent Consumption:

The total amount of aluminum available for use in the U.S., which includes domestic production and imports, was 4.3 million metric tons in 2024.

Imports:

The U.S. imported about 4.8 million metric tons of aluminum for consumption in 2024.
Domestic Production:

In 2023, the U.S. produced 860 thousand metric tons of aluminum from refined metal ore (primary production), with the industry also recycling 3.4 million tons of aluminum.

Secondary Production:

In 2023, the U.S. recycled 3.4 million tons of aluminum.
Reliance on Imports:
The U.S. is heavily reliant on aluminum imports, with a significant portion coming from Canada.

Wait till the customs bureaucracy is required to fathom out which items incur tariffs and/or how much an item should be tariffed...

I saw a 2 litre bottle of Jim Beam for $24.95 last time in the US.
How much do we pay for that here after our government puts their hands in our pockets to jack the price up?

Trump isn't going to impact us with his tariffs our dollar is so low it isn't going to make much difference in the US for consumers.

No.  I'm simply watching with bated breath to see what happens... no point sweating over it... no point chasing one social science illusion after another - after all - economics is under social sciences, and if it was so good, we'd all have been in clover generations ago instead of the growing economic and social mess amounting to utter disaster at the national and personal level they are making of it with every utterance.   8-)

Until the profits head into tax havens of one kind or another and thus are removed from going round and round..  The propaganda that buying local will solve the nation's economic woes is just that - propaganda to calm the masses while those who actually benefit, including those pushing that line who also have hold of the reins of government in one way or another, continue to hoard dollars while everyone else spends to stay above water, is just that - propaganda.

First port of call - a full and in-depth analysis of what constitute 'tax havens' - and then their removal one by one so as to guarantee genuine equal treatment under the tax laws, as is required under Law.

Offshore tax havens/onshore tax havens - such as those that benefit property hoarders over home owners... such as the parasite with an 8' x 10' office in the Bwahahamas Republic while  jetting around the world first class  between Monaco, the Alps and all fine points ... while psychopathically disregarding the real impact on those below...

Remember what I said about Albo?  He either does not know the dreadful harm his 'policy platform' is doing for the many - or he knows and doesn't give a rat's.......same with these guys.

Country could do with a decent overthrow - I prefer the democratic way of voting all the assholes out, but if Georgia marches - then I march with her...

Remember Admiral Turner when he took over the CIA - his biggest battle over 3-4 years was against the death drag of deliberate bureaucratic inertia.... he could hardly expect a report anywhere near on time.... they just dragged their feet and slowed down perhaps needed change in their black ops and other direct action areas, waiting for a future 'conservative' to get in and loose the dogs anew .....  8-)

But we lack the expertise to build vehicles-

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-03/car-brands-could-pull-models-nves-trump-tariff/105130664

“ In short:
Some car makers are weighing whether to lift prices or pull models from July, when carbon emission laws for the sector will become enforceable.
The industry is facing uncertainty after US President Donald Trump's tariff announcement, and say the scheme should be revisited.”

“ Abc

So down comes the choice of car’s but  up the cost goes by 10 to 24% from July.

Just what the nation needs, our primary mode of transportation being limited and increasing in price to protect the environment that China is destroying?

The emissions we are reducing is roughly equal to the amount China increase’s every year.

Maybe they live in a different atmosphere?

Watching the Lefty Australians cry about America's tariffs is like watching losers cry because their Dole money has been cancelled and now they gotta work.

Israel, Vietnam, India, Canada already looking to reduce or eliminate Tariffs against the US 🇺🇸

Meanwhile - Australian Politicians still acting like babies crying in the corner… absolutely pathetic..

Is Trump saying that he has banned importation of Australian beef?



https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-03/australian-beef-singled-out-in-donald-trumps-liberation-tariffs/105120998


Trump,

Quote:

"Australia bans — and they're wonderful people, and wonderful everything — but they ban American beef. "Yet we imported $[US]3 billion [$4.8 billion] of Australian beef from them just last year alone. "They won't take any of our beef. "They don't want it because they don't want it to affect their farmers and, you know, I don't blame them but we're doing the same thing right now, starting at midnight tonight, I would say."

Exactly. It seems USA will suffer economically … particularly for sellers. Some years ago, we bought a part for the bobcat, could only buy ex army from USA.
They (people) had this deal with very cheap postage anywhere outside of USA to help with expanding business/sales etc. That part to come to Au was less than $20 but for us to post to USA was $120.
I know this because I got a quote if needing to return part.
Reason we considered returning was… like toilet water, everything spins opposite!
But hubby was able to pull apart the item to get it to reverse spin.

Anyway, I wonder how things are working out for the little sellers now?

Didn’t Warren Buffet pull all his money out earlier knowing this would happen?

Cryptocurrency is doing no better!
Everything in the red figures!

I have a question, what makes Trumpet man thinks he’s so good at business?
Canada are wiping their hands of America.
Australia will do trade deals with other countries other than America.
Weird how he says Australia’s not interested importing USA beef but want to export AU beef to us.
If our beef industry is going good, why should we import from overseas?
Didn’t this happen with all orange trees pulled out of Mildura so that oranges were imported from USA?

So, Monkey Boy long time since we talked. How you been? I don't really care.  Say, do YOU have a problem with this despite the Kremlin-funded insistence otherwise from the White House that tariffs are not really “reciprocal” at all. More of a meaning based on tariffs charged by those other countries, like say, the "shithole" one you live in and the methodology of the tariff calculation was not consistently applied?


I guess what is happening to the markets today, and is about to happen to businesses and consumers across the nation, is not a game. And many of your entitled white male self-victims will also pay an ultimate political price. No one should relish the prospect of a crashed economy for political advantage, defend Trump in this moment could truly be fateful. Even for you.


Have a wonderful day.  8-)

Couldn't be more wrong if you tried.

A dope smoker is a soft individual who doesn't grow though challenge but just seeks to numb the pain

This is called being soft and living like a parasite on society.

If the White boys want to be soft and weak like you. Then F them.

Trump and Musk are guys who risk it all over and over again.

When Musk got 200 million for PayPal, he put 100 million into starting Tesla and 100 million into space X and had to borrow money to pay rent.

A pot smoking loser could never risk it all and go back to zero.

Donald has been at zero many times.

My definition of intelligent is someone who finds a way to get what they want.

Trump wanted the white house
He got it
Musk wanted to fix government
He got it.

They are the definition of intelligent.

Smug losers like yourself are dumb.

When you were in primary school, what goals did you set yourself.

US stock markets plunged Thursday, with the worst day for all three major market indexes since 2020 and the US dollar wiping out all gains since Trump’s reelection.

Global markets also fell sharply, and leading economists say they fear tariffs could lead to a global recession.

According to economists, Trump's tariffs are currently running the global economy into the ground.  To help you prepare, The Babylon Bee has found the 10 most devastating effects of Trump's tariffs. Take a look at the madness.


Millions of people now have to pretend to know what a tariff is: It's a crime against humanity.

Europeans are saying mean things about the US: And they're being even more mean than usual this time.

Dementors from Azkaban will be unleashed on the floor of the NY Stock Exchange to crash the market: World trade could come to a screeching halt if we don't stop this from happening.

Econ majors will get to feel important for a few minutes: This is a travesty and should never have happened.

The nonfunctional nose-hair-trimmer/phone charger you ordered from Wish is now $2 more expensive: How could Trump do this?

Millions of Chinese slaves might lose their jobs: Terrible.

Between 11 and 14 billion deaths: And that's a conservative estimate.

The cost of bananas will skyrocket to $0.59 per pound: Banana bread will join calamari and Tokay as a status symbol of the rich and prosperous.

The Galactic Trade Federation might send an army of battle droids to Earth: And we don't even have any Jedi negotiators available.

Trump's approval rating might go down: Noooooooooo!





Has the economy ever been worse than this? No. No, it has not. The tariffs have doomed us all.

Global stocks have sunk, a day after rapist Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs that are forecast to raise prices and weigh on growth in the US and abroad.

The S&P 500, which tracks 500 of the biggest American firms, plunged 4.8% - its worst day since Covid crashed the economy in 2020. Earlier in the day financial markets fell from Asia to Europe.

Nike, Apple and Target were among big consumer names worst hit, all of them sinking by more than 9%.
