He paid it to himself. The value is completely made up.

Look at the fine print. The US car companies might be the worst hit since the tariffs also apply on various sub-assemblies that mean an additive tariff of 50-100+ on them.

Congrats on paying 250% more per US made car, given that the average "US made car" crosses borders 10-15x

Clarkson has admitted that he knows his faults. He likes the sound and feeling of a car with a powerful engine. He doesn't like the over-computerized and "soulless" modern car.

Superstore absolutely abuses its unionized members.

The union is barely worth a damn unless youre a GenX/Boomer who is grandfathered into Grid A.

Don't shop at the big grocery stores, other than Costco and London Drugs. Stick to smaller local markets and farmers markets. You get so much good stuff and both of them help the planet.

Both Superstore and Save On foods have massively inflated prices on Canadian goods. Save On Foods is selling Chapmans and Island Farms ice cream for $12-13, but the US shit for half that. Same with the cheese.

Side note: Kraft bribes grocery store management to push their stuff. Every company does it to a degree, but Kraft used to do a $200 shopping spree for all store management every Christmas.

Nah, but I would expect its price to be in the low 5 figures, maybe 6 figures.

And split the US into two as it fought itself.

It's poor sales *from last year Q1 compared to 2023 Q1.

We're not even looking at 2024 Q2-4 or 2025 Q1 yet. Telsa might be completely underwater at this point.

Maine should split off and join Canada.

That report is made by these guys.

You, know, the guys behind Reaganomics and push for the privatization of everything

I dont blame you for forgetting.

I dont forget it because a month and a half prior my friends and I were all planning a big trip to NYC and would have been in the middle of that covid outbreak.
