China made knives/ tariffs?

[TripleF]

Will China made knives fly off the shelves knowing new ones will be priced MUCH higher because of Tariffs, thus making
USA the way to go?

China made knives might fly off the shelves. I could see that happening but everything will increase in price whether it was affected by tariffs or not. Doesn’t matter where it was made.

It happened with the COVID outbreak. No reason to think it won’t happen again with the tariffs. Retailers will use the tariffs as an excuse to raise prices across the board.

My post was only my personal prediction of history repeating itself. I don’t recommend ruling out the possibility that I could be way off base.

Without getting too political:

It might be a possibility

That is the more likely scenario.

You got that right!

Unfortunately I believe you are right.

Without getting too political:
“People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones that do.”

"Without getting too political": Amen to that!
And to paraphrase a line from A League of Thier Own: Take me home Mama, I have said enough to know that I have said too much.
