US Politics |OT|

I just bought a product through eBay that shipped from Canada. Not only was the shipping price higher than usual, I got hit with a high import fee that is basically the same price as the cost of the product itself. These tariffs are clearly a tax on consumers. That money is going straight into the government's coffers and it is so dysfunctional that it has been shutdown for the last month.

Why did people vote for this monstrosity? We told them again and again that tariffs are paid by us consumers. The economy and the high cost of living were some of the biggest issues of the last election and yet most voted for the clearly worse option.

I'm not buying anything else internationally through e-bay until this administration and its awful policies are gone.
