While guns, which are manufactured in the US will stay the same price...coffee and chocolate will go up a lot.

So there are going to be some edgy people with access to firearms.

Stay safe next year.

Variable on guns.

Mine is a Walther. Walther guns are manufactured in Ulm, Germany.

Sig Sauer manufactures here, but imports components.

Beretta has a Tennessee facility for the American market. They import some of their components.

I’m not looking up everything, limiting it to solid 9mm handgun producers.

Google is also telling me the metal used for guns is a mix of imported and domestic. So yes, it looks like gun prices will go up with tariffs.

Supply may be an issue for all of the above if the American manufacturers stop importing components and metal.

Well the part about the neighbors not how tariffs work is believable. I have lost count of how many people just think china had to send us money directly to us.

It's like the five stages of grief but with not knowing what the consequences of voting against your interests are.

We're all set to suffer for the foreseeable future, but no one suffers more from conservative policy than poor, rural conservatives.

I, for one, will absolutely enjoy watching them suffer. They deserve it.

Does punctuation count towards character count on Twitter? Cause that could explain a complete lack of it

[-] ArchRecord@lemm.ee 10 points 2 days ago

Yes, yes it does.

Shiv nice thought though if you're going to make up stories I would recommend and you don't have to take this on board it's just a suggestion but believe me punctuation makes your posts vastly more readable I promise I'm not joking thanks for listening as you were

I’ll suffer more, but I can take more of a financial hit. Really I’m getting the political equivalent to a groin shot. It’s not fair, it’s not cool, and it should be off limits. I should get to be comfortable keeping my assets stateside.
