It’s NOT just ram, even though that is the major contributor currently, and American companies still buy shit that is tarrifed. It all gets passed down. I design PCBs and buy electronics/parts/computers/network infrastructure for a living. It’s been a constant issue. So anyway, good times, by forever.

Bullshit. There’s been 20-25% tarrifs on ALL goods from China, Mexico, and Canada.

So when I work with the procurement department to make accurate cost estimates based on tariffs, specifically, that’s just a hallucination. Good thing I have Internet trolls to snap me out of it.

Tariffs made many things more expensive for consumers including computers and parts, yes.
