Bloody hell, war is expensive.

It would be a bit #easier, but actually, no one needs a #Cost #Breakdown on #Amazon, cause there are already #Tariff #Calculators on the #Web like tarrifup_com. It's also easy to #calculate yourself, if you know the #Tariffs and the #Homeland of the #Product. No big #Deal. This you can see too in the #App. But it seems, the #asscreeping #BigTech don't want to #collide with #Trump.

Scientifically documented (Nature) research attributing damage expressed in $$$ to fossil fuel companies. Hopefully eventually some accountability will be taken from this, as well as fostering climate mitigation activity over continuing legacy business as usual for the benefit of profit models of existing stakeholders.

»#WhiteHouse slammed #Amazon for planning to display the #cost of #DonaldTrump’s #tariffs next to the total price of products: “This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.”« https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/white-house-blasts-amazon-over-tariff-cost-report-hostile-and-political-act.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news
Amazon later clarified that the plan to show tariff surcharges was “never approved” and is “not going to happen.”
What would happen if millions of people got on Amazon and asked the question on every page where something was for sale and asked the question I’d like to buy this, but I want to know how much of the cost of this item is due to the tariffs imposed on it?
Would they answer? #Amazon #tariff #cost #inflation #Bezos #Trump #1stFelon #USA #America
