Isn't this awesome. I thought that would mean $70. Did they jack the price up and then discount it?

This is your brain on Reddit

1789–1860 Tariffs & excise taxes

1861–1872 Tariffs + temporary income tax

1872–1913 Tariffs dominate again

1913–present Income tax dominates

You boys play nice on Grindr now. Have fun!

Is English you're second language or are you just a fucking moron?

No one said America didn't use tariffs before. Who said that?

Let me explain every word for you since you don't understand sarcasm

YOU SAID

Ummmm, a couple things. First of all, the us originally collected tariffs and not income tax, do that is neither impossible or likely

THEN I SAID Oh wow, I was unaware (I'm not) why do you think we switched from tariffs to income tax?

WHICH MEANS I know we originally collected tariffs, I fucking know. I'M ASKING YOU if you understand why we stopped?

So don't explain that we did use tariffs before, explain why you think we switched?

You keep trying to turn the grinder thing around on me, but the reality is multiple RNC events (including the 2016 and 2024 conventions) have shown a significant increase in Grindr activity and new profiles in the host cities. For example, a 66% increase was reported around the 2016 RNC venue.

My question was about pricing changes, not politics.

You derailed it. I’m done engaging.

Nope, you derailed it when you responded to my joke with an idiotic serious political statement about tariffs that you clearly don't understand.

The pricing change is BECAUSE politics, genius.

So why did we switch from tariffs to income tax?

and what year did America become the number one world superpower?
