Can Musk Pull Trump Back From the Tariff Ledge?

Elon Musk is known for many things. Subtlety is not one of them.When Musk shared a grainy two-minute video at 4:59 a.m. Monday to his 218 million followers, his post contained no words, and yet the message was clear. It showed the free-market intellectual Milton Friedman, in a 1980 clip well known to economists, waxing poetic about free trade as he sketched out the international origins of the parts that form a pencil.Musk was expressing his discomfort with President Trump’s imposition of draconian new tariffs. And yet one has to wonder what Musk hopes to accomplish.This is not a president

@kobilacroix OFC #Greedflation will mean that corporations like #Apple will just 1:1 the prices even if the #USD:#EUR goes 2:1.

  • They already did it that in the past, and when the $:€ was >1,60:1, it was cheaper for folks to fly to #NYC, sleep one bight in a hotel, buy an #iPhone and fly back to #Germany with #customs & #ImportTax paid...

And yes, I knew a time when people got paid to order for pickup Apple devices in the #USA, fly back with them and properly declare them at customs because even at 2x19% tax + buying new chargers it was cheaper than accepting 60% price gouging.

  • So just because the #iPhone will get 104% tariffs in the #US and the #EU production never enters the US it'll likely get parity by numbers because Apple always flexes numbers in disadvantage for buyers!

Also no #retailer will accept sucking up the losses, cuz even if Apple were to make 80% margin on their devices at their stores, they'd be in the red without raising prices...

  • But in essence you're correct: #Consumers WILL GET SHAFTED and not the corporations - that's how it's always been! (Ask Brazilians about non - domestic-built game console prices!)…
