  1. Any moment now @ChickenSandwich will come in and admit he misunderstood what VAT is and how tariffs work.
  2. snakes are quieter (unless they have rattle).
  3. In order to analyze something objectively, you need to have all available information. Based on the below, you're analyzing based on partial information, which is the equivalent to analyzing based upon misinformation. If you can't see that, you're being neither objective nor rational.
  4. It'll actually make it worse. Processed, calorically dense foods will take the place of more nutritionally balanced (and less addictive) whole foods to an even greater extent than they do now.
  5. To help @ChickenSandwich Tariffs are focused on where a product is from. Sales tax and VAT are focused on where a product is intended to be used. Tariffs treat products from other countries differently. Sales Tax and VAT treat products FROM other the countries the same. Sales Tax and VAT differ in how they accomplish that task. Sales Tax focused on transactions and where those transactions take place. VAT focuses on products and where those products are intended to be used. Because sales is applied to transactions, it is possible for the same product to be taxed multiple times. VAT is intended to apply to a product only one time. In conclusion, VAT is not a tariff and does not negatively affect US made goods in comparison to locally made goods.
  6. VAT applies to goods sold in the EU. It doesn't matter where they came from. It doesn't apply to goods sold outside the EU. Texas also does not apply sales tax to goods not sold in Texas. I'm not sure why this is confusing to you.
  7. Texas is ahead of the tariff game with sales tax!
  8. You're a moron.
  9. Probably the one that makes him feel better about this whole thing and proves this is totally not a moronic exercise in self-destruction.
  10. Just not our night.
  11. Yes. Yes he is. The infield hits continue.
  12. infield hits are fun.
  13. Good ole infield double.
  14. Maybe we thought this was going to be a drinking competition?
  15. Ok, god hated her. Apparently this guy has the fucking angels from angels in the outfield working with him today. Strikes out Gasparino
  16. come on, we need a hit.
  17. We are really making life difficult for Kimble and he keeps stepping up.
  18. Yuck on that throw to first. Still got him, but jeez.
  19. Also, he didn't really react with his hand
  20. That hit bat. You can't overturn that.
  21. Gasparino may be walked for the foreseeable future. This is just fucking ridiculous.
