[-] infinitevalence@discuss.online 47 points 2 months ago

lol no, the corporations that paid the tax are getting paid, we wont get refunds.

[-] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 45 points 2 months ago

I mean, the corporations didn’t pay it, we did, but yeah 100% it’s going to the corporations anyway.

It's my money and I need it now!

[-] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 months ago

But seriously, I don’t think the regime is going to volunteer rebates. I think they’re going to hold on to the cash until and unless corporations and individuals who have paid those tariffs sue the government and win.

The sons of Howard Lutnick (Trump's commerce secretary) are using Howard's former firm, Cantor Fitzgerald, to sell tarrif refund rights. Look it up.

Oh yes, I am aware

[-] CannonFodder@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Not even. The big corps mostly sold the potential rebates for cheap. Investment companies (ie the billionaires) picked them up and likely bribed the SC judges to get a big payday.

[-] AshMan85@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Corporations might get paid but not us lol

HA HA HA HA HA HA! [inhales] HAAAAA!

[-] anton 30 points 2 months ago

Did you pay tariffs directly? No.
A company payed them and passed the cost to you, so the company will get the refund and keep it.

Also, don't even think that prices are going back to pre tarif levels.

It's like $120 billion right? 350 million folks in America, so if my math is right I should get..... $300-something bucks!

Maybe I'll invest it in some new food.

[-] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 26 points 2 months ago

I think you're missing a zero.

But the truth is, if there even are any refunds, it'll go to the corporations who raised their prices to pass on the costs to the consumers, but the consumers won't get shit back.

Also, corporations probably won't be lowering their prices, even if the tariffs are rolled back. So they'll basically just see a spike in their profits while everyone in the US continues to get robbed.

Trump seems like an accelerationist trying to speed up late stage capitalism and it's inevitable fall

[-] MTZ@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

See, THAT'S money talk!

All in on rice futures, and by that I mean, a bag of rice

Time to get 100 coffees!

Rights to tarrif refunds are being sold by the sons of Howard Lutnick (Trump's commerce secretary) from his former firm, Cantor Fitzgerald. Look it up.
