    The fuck is “non-tariff cheating” supposed to mean?

      As opposed to cheating as an insider trader who manipulates markets with yo-yo tariffs.

        I mean wouldn’t it just be “ways to cheat tarrifs”

        Like I guess they don’t want to promote that but they could just say “ways to cheat tarrifs we will punish” to try to sound hard.

        But this phrase just makes no sense.

      I believe he’s trying to say “here’s other examples of CHEATING other countries do to us that are unrelated to tariffs”. Who knows.

        I think he’s saying things other than tariffs that affect how many dollars the US could make selling shit to your country.

        Thing is, the list doesn’t make sense. Yeah most countries have VAT. 1) So does the US, it’s called sales tax. 2) I pay VAT equally on American, Estonian or German goods. What’s the problem?
