Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

None of which will go to the people that actually paid the tariffs, the consumer

Refunds to consumers who paid for them, right?

Right?

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 74 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Only if you bought Cards Against Humanity. They're giving the money back to the consumer.

They are unbelievably awesome.

If they don't give them to the people then the people will just have to take back our share from those that did get the refunds. I am thinking Walmart and target would be good er.. targets.

I wonder if there will be class action lawsuits?

SURPRISE REFUNDS 😏

[–] qjkxbmwvz@startrek.website 8 points 1 day ago

I wonder if there's a legal difference between companies adding a tariff line item to the invoice vs. just raising prices (not that there's a moral difference IMHO).

And Howard lutnick's kid will make hundreds of millions of dollars which was the plan all along.

I'd like my money back too

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

You'll need Congress to earmark the refund. Not bullish on this, given who is currently in charge.
