Hey, Miss junkies. Uh, in regards to the tariffs, there's 1 thing that I haven't heard anyone talk about. Um, now, I'm in business, I buy sell items, 30%, probably come out of China. Um, currently, I'm inventorying about 200,000 dollars worth of Chinese products. Um, the margins on these Chinese products are just insane. Um, 1 particular item, um and this is pretty normal across the board. Uh, delivered to my door with tariffs is 5 dollars. I'm selling it for 40. Now if a tariff kicks in when the tariffs do kick in, I'm going to pay 20% on that 5 dollars, which is a dollar. On the back end, when I'm selling it for $40, am I going to put 20% on that? Which would be 8 dollars. This is kind of the Dirty Little Secret people aren't talking about right now. Uh, the other thing is too, again, these big box stores that are housing, all these Chinese products that probably loaded up their inventory just went up 20%, they literally made 20% profit overnight. If they pass that 20% profit to the consumer the end user. which, Theoretically shouldn't happen. The the increase and I'm getting on that 4 dollars. Or that 5 dollars that I pay is only an extra dollar, but everyone has in their mind. That's 20% is on the the sale end which I hate to say it but that's just what business has done. Um, ever since Co happened, I've seen implicit collusion just running rampid in this economy and I've seen it happen before ever, you know, the last 20 years but it's never held the line like it is now. And um, it's it's definitely, it's, this is going to really hurt, um, the end user but small businesses and large businesses alone are going to really, really benefit from this. Um, you know, your profit margins. If you have a profit margin of 20%, On ten dollars. Now you have a profit margin of 20% on 12 dollars, so, You know, it's American Business, that's just how it is. Um, have a great day.
