Again. The US citizenship paid the first time. Should be comical watching them have to pay it a second time which is almost a guarantee with Trump and admin in tow.
Heck they’re probably already working out how to stiff them with the bill.
Said this earlier, but the tariffs should be returned to the consumer as a tax credit for a certain amount. Will it give everyone the exact amount they paid? No. But at least it returns the money to the people and not to the corporations who will just keep it. It’s about as fair of a way as you can get without ending up in accounting hell.
Well, they could go back through the receipts they have saved, but that would require someone to do actual work to figure out how much each customer is owed. It would be terrible to pay an employee to do that, when the CEO could just pocket the money.
They don't have to do that. You must scan your membership card each time you checkout. Bet million they have record of everything you every bought from them.
They should make it so that people have to show up for these things rather than just send a lawyer... And make it so they have to physically receive the summons. Wear the old bastard down.
Finally the excuse the courts needed to postpone illegal detention cases even further. If the detainees die in their concentration camps the administration won again.
But hey, maybe I'll get $12 back through some class action bullshit.

Trump won't pay a cent. The taxpayer will have to fork it over.

Yeah, these were very much the largest tax increase in living memory.

Twice. All these corpos are wanting to pocket the money that they passed to you in price hikes.
Except Cards Against Humanity. They're refunding back 100% of whatever tarrif shit that's returned to them.

Wait if CostCo wins means they now must pay all the members correct? Because we all fucking know they didn't pay that tax the customers did.

Out of all the corporations, Costco is probably the only one I’d have any faith in making it right for their customers.

Cards against humanity has promised to give money back to customers

Thank you for posting that link. I must have missed it.

Yeah. "Fuck corporate" is an absolutely fantastic life philosophy, but Costco is the LEAST guilty of any of them.
Fredselfish@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 176d
Costco isn't going give money back. They could easily, you have to scan your membership card before check out. But they aren't, but nice if they did.
Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 176d
I laughed when I read this.
Hope you're right, I guess...but yikes. Costco doesn't give a shit about their consumers.

But Trump already gave tax cuts to corporations and was planning on using tariff revenue to make up the difference.

This could've all been avoided if they just taxed business more...
