Pretty extraordinary. You just never see an 80% drop of anything globally in a week.

Yep. One more excuse to kill the USPS.

Awesome, this was a huge scam for taxpayers to subsidize.

How is letting people buy stuff from other countries a scam/subsidy? Do words have no meaning to your cohort anymore?

People were able to buy stuff from China with lower shipping costs than ordering something from across the street. Many organizations studied this loophole. Keep up :)

Small businesses such as crafters and the like relied on this to ship from Canada or Europe to the us. Now, folks will have to prepay the tariffs when making their purchase assuming the small business are still alive. This will noticeably raise the cost borne by us-Ian’s.

Valid question.

> Do words have no meaning to your cohort anymore?

Don't comment like that here. Site guidelines call for assuming good faith on the part of other posters. They also call for avoiding personal attacks. You violated both in one sentence.
