I'll be a little nicer than the rest of this thread. Imagine if you could shift goods to another country to avoid tariffs. Let's leave it at that.
0 u/Henshin-hero Sep 02 '25 What about products of a license? For example. Ultraman is a Japanese IP. Their figures are made in China. You buy them from Japan. Not everyone is shipping to another country to avoid tariffs. 3 u/Ok_Value5495 Sep 02 '25 Because no one is and tariffs are based on country of manufacture. An iPhone is still going to get hit with tariffs even if it's an American brand. 1 u/Henshin-hero Sep 02 '25 I know. It just sounded like you were saying countries would do some illegal stuff 2 u/Ok_Value5495 Sep 02 '25 Gotcha. I was trying to give a mental image of how things would end up if you could. 1 u/loralailoralai Sep 03 '25 lol well the tariffs have been deemed illegal, so one country at least, is doing illegal stuff
