I don't know who needs to hear this, but EVERY FUCKING RETAILER needs to show the tariffs next to the price -- not just Amazon. Walmart, Target, ALL OF THEM. It's a fucking tax, why shouldn't we see it? I want to know exactly how much trump's tariffs are jacking my prices up. DON'T YOU?
BRAVO!!!
Itll be a cold day in hell if target does this. I think we all know where they’re kneeling.
Yes I do!
As a hairdresser, I’ve even heard the phrase “recession blonde” to refer to going much longer between touch ups! Trump is screwing us all
Amazon has walked that back, anyway. Cowards
Billionaires are going to stick together. Is anyone surprised?
I posted the same thing. Yes I agree.
You're not gonna need the tariff next to the price. Take the price right now and subtract it from whatever it goes up to. There's your tariff.
Call it Import Tax as that's what it is. Leave the word Tariff out of it. Many don't understand tariff, but all would understand import tax!
I work in retail and it’s a slow price creep—next week the curtain comes down and everyone will see how fucked we are with this orange buffoon 🤬
If they did that they’d have to remove it when -if - the tariffs are gone. Who’s willing to bet prices won’t go down after trumps tariffs???
I invite you to go to Amazon and check out something you bought a couple months back and see what it cost today
Oh yes but you need to have freedom to do so. I think you are free to show the tariffs in exactly every country in the world except in the USA, the Land of the Free.....
Here in Alabama, the stores show what was taxed @ 9% and what was taxed @ 10% already. Why not show the international tax charge or what ever you want to call it too?
Yes! I was so disappointed in Bezos for kneeling to trump.
They are to scared to do that
I absolutely do. BUT, some retailers are jacking up prices on things that aren't impacted by tariffs so they're not about to out themselves. Walmart.
Alternately, buy nothing. I am a weird trends and patterns INTJ person. Price increases are worse now than in March 2020, when COVID was finally declared a national emergency by 🍊💩💩 (after the stock market closed on a Friday.) And I say this gently, but stock up now because the ports are empty.
You're absolutely right. Show us the taxes.
I agree. I want to see it, damn it! It should be mandatory. Honestly I don't think I'll be buying much of anything in the near future. I'll stick to thriftstores.
100%
Eh, fuck Target.
China is collecting 175% which gets passed to Fedex to pay the tariffs.
Also, take pictures of your favorite items…the quantity & packaging will likely shrink. I have already noticed a difference in the last month.
Amazon shook in fear and denied they were ever going to show Tariff costs. Bezos is a little beeawtch when the Diapered Toddler throws a tantrum. Along with many other CEOs and law firms. It’s fine. Thursday and Saturday. Protests by MILLIONS. No excuses if you are ABLE! WE MUST RISE NOW! MILLIONS!🇺🇸
We have the power, if they don’t post the tariff price then we don’t buy the product.
Betcha there will be fewer choices very soon.
Too bad Amazon backed down so quickly.
Tell your Dems in DC to draft some legislation. I've been trying but no one can reach them. They're too busy fucking around on X.
Absolutely!
I’m reading Bezos got a call WH and won’t go ahead?
That is what I heard as well.
Spineless Bezos needs to not cave on listing tariff costs for starters.
Dickless.
Amazon backed down after talking to TFG!!!!
Yes. I hope all elementary school math teachers use this online tool to teach percentages and the economy. And maybe all their parents will help them with their math problems and get woke up.
What I find most interesting about this Amazon debacle is that it shows this administration KNOWS the tariffs are a tax and will increase prices on everything for everyone; otherwise they wouldn’t think it a problem if they showed how much money America was earning. They’re just lying to everyone.
Making a conscious decision to cut back on as many extraneous purchases as possible. We consume too much unnecessary shit anyway!
Better yet, try NOT ordering from Amazon if possible.
And call it Trump Tax.
Can the tariffs be written off on your IRS?
If they don't, its because they are price gouging and need to be called on it.
I definitely do.
You would think showing the tariff impact broken out would help drive consumers to non-burdened products. Isn't that the whole point of a tariff? The fact that Trump wants them hidden implies that the tariffs are about something else. Driving funds to his grift maybe?
He just wants to limit or prevent information people could use against him, and by extention, the tariffs.
Imagine the revenue going to the federal government from these tariffs? When Trump says tariffs will make America rich, he isn't kidding. Of course, he isn't referring to the citizens paying the tax.
They won't do it. It might give you some insight and make you a more discriminating shopper.
That would prevent the others to raise EVERY price (remember: “well…supply chain”?) So it won’t happen
We need full disclosure. We see the federal & state taxes every time we fill our cars with gasoline. Tariff taxes must be disclosed.
It's disgusting how quickly Amazon caved. Like seriously, let them sue! Even THIS supreme court would laugh them out of court!
I image that the suppliers/sellers/vendors would want this distinction too.
But if they don't post the cost of the Republican import taxes, they can add another 25% to the price as pure profit and most customers will chalk it up to tariffs. Kind of like what they did with "supply chain issues" after covid.
Amen
Agreed! My plan is no unnecessary spending at all and we are supporting as many local small businesses as possible. No big box stores or corporations.
I’ve been saying this all over the Internet! Boycott anyone who doesn’t itemize and list the cost of the tariff.
I’m in CA. They show taxes on everything. Pass a fucking bill to show tariff taxes.
I know who needs to hear this… Republicans who are still shopping at those retailers. Dems shouldn’t be shopping at Amazon, Target, Walmart, Starbucks, etc. #BoycottMAGARetailers
Feels like a State laws to me. A state like say, Illinois, should just pass a law requiring all retailers to display the tax at all locations in their state, including online sales, thus forcing Amazon to do it.
In weird world, it's not about what we want. It's about what he wants. Welcome to authoritarianism comrade.
And folks need to stock up! We will be searching for toilet paper and all foods like COVID era ☹️ x.com/themainewonk...
yup
💯
💯 every AMERICAN WHO ORDERS online AMAZON AND ALL OTHER COMPANIES WANT TO KNOW TARRIFS FEES- PERIOD JEFF BAZOS- you are really a BOZO
Wimpy Bezos! So glad I’m learning to live without fucky Amazon.
Make him own it!
Shit, yeah show those fucking prices so, that way everybody knows what a fucking liar he is
And how about the amount of blood money each corporation has paid him, either in graft “contributions” or “joint ventures” — how about putting that right next to their logos???
YESSSS
We should all be filling their corporate shills' emails and voicemail boxes. Demand this information for every item on their shelves.
Just wait—the orange menace will insist the tariffs be backed out of retail prices when they calculate inflation because THEN it will be a tax! He will tout that he’s a genius because he has saved Americans so much money because there’s no longer any inflation and MAGA will cheer him on.
Know I do, I pretty much but the same things cleaning products, household items. I will notice any price increase. Bezos sucking hard.
He’s so stupid
Agreed!
Amazon backed off due to being Bullied by trimp.
And to make sure those prices go back down when tariffs end.
Show me the…😡 Tariffs additional charge!
If It’s a tac then It needs to be shown 👍
My only concern is that it can't be double-counted as both a direct tax and consumer inflation. There's something to be said, after the disingenuous 2024 campaign, about calling inflation inflation.
If they don’t do it we’ll do it for them.
Right!?! Nothing wrong with truth disclosure, unless you want to hide the truth.
If everyone whose living expenses go up b/c of DT's tariffs marches in the streets, the only people NOT marching will be bedbound in hospitals, locked up in prisons, or those too ill in nursing homes. DT will just lie and say they're all in the streets in "praise of him".
The MAGAtax…let’s all get used to saying it.
“TTW tax” Trump Trade War
Just a distraction from a.....police state? www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
Software developers - make an app so people can scan a barcode with their phone to find out how much the item has been tariffed, with a field for entering total retail price to calculate how much of the total is the Trump Import Tax. Yeah, that's the other thing - call them Trump import taxes.
I need to see it everywhere or I won't buy it
Not just to know now but when Trump buckles and stops the tariffs, we will know what the price SHOULD be without the tariffs
Canadian grocery stores have been doing this on the shelves for a month now. But, I guess he can't stop us...
Absolutely!
Or there could be a site people can go to?
www.fiftyfifty.one
Amazon backed down after they got a phone call. 🙄
Actually, that is a great comment. All my receipts show the tax I paid on products. It should show both.
bsky.app/profile/just...
If they don't we should assume increased cost is the retailer increasing their profit margin. And shop elsewhere...
YesYesYes‼️
EVERY retailer needs to hear this, especially the other large retailers like Wal-mart, Target, Costco, and the large grocery chains.
Same for passing taxes. Everyone should pay quarterly. Sending a check to Uncle Sam every quarter hits different.
Agreed
TAT: Trump Added Tax
T-Rump talked to Bezos…he rescinded and is not doing it now…
According to Trump, it’s a beautiful beautiful thing, but it’s too complicated for us common citizens to understand only he can because he’s a stable genius at least in his own mind.
I genius a new word, for the stuff one shovels off the stable floor?
Exactly why the Bozos backed off—Trump knew the optics made it look like a 'Trump Tariff Tax,' just like when he slapped his signature on COVID relief checks. And people still think he’s not a politician?
we should all call and tell them so. I've just started by calling Target and telling them that as a consumer I want that transparency from them.
They are just going to raise prices. Then, Trump can pretend that prices are down. I can't wait until this shit is over!
Of course we want to know. That's why the White House occupant (WHo) is going to threaten all retailers.
bsky.app/profile/lady...
Retailers have zero incentive to tell their customers how much the tariffs add to the product price. I fully expect retailers to raise prices on ALL products and blame it on tariffs whether real or imagined (remember the blame was on 'supply chain' during covid and prices never came down).
MAGA fucks will feel it to. Can't hide behind "he's a business genius bringing prices down" when they surge overnight.
They won't betray their leader. They will feel the pain, but as long as there are those who will be hurt more (people the magats hate), the magats will be okay with the pain. They have lived their lives being cruel. They will enjoy watching other suffer too.
Exactly!!!
The whole administration is based on the premise that if you don’t “see” it (testing, science, talk about, etc) it doesn’t exist. (Covid, SignalGate, Autism, Deficit, Tariffs, a scale or height chart…)
So let’s boycott them for raising prices until they show the tax.
Yes
The fact that they are showing no transparency—is knowing how criminal this administration is.
When you purchase on Amazon it shows tax and shipping, how about tariffs you weak selfish short guy
Right. But the importer pays the tariff, not the consumer. Sure, the net effect is that the importer passes the cost on. But technically, it's paid by the importer.
Then say additional cost due to tariff. Same idea
PLUS Trump says that tariffs are great. The word itself is his favourite, so this is something to be proud of and to laud to the world.
Well, AP News : Amazon says it's not planning to display added tariff costs next to product prices on its site — despite a report that sparked. Confusion over pricing cost and tariffs. What did executives and CEOs expect from this deal with Trump? www.fastcompany.com/91325345/tru...
Like the sticker at the gas pumps
Yes. It’s absolutely the responsibility of them to do so. (I cover politics and social issues, focusing on fighting fascism and raising awareness about key injustices. Please follow me if interested!)
How about being able to deduct this so called tariff tax on our tax returns.
And every car dealer !
You'd think it would register to most, but the Trumpers refuse to see. Cognitive dissonance runs about.
I agree but consumers are not that dumb. If you buy an item often enough and then see a huge price increase, you can safely assume it is the tariff tax.
Calling it out and having it in writing though is the bitchslap needed for Resist to be meaningful and effective. ✌️💙✌️
If they don’t, they are helping Trump lie to the customers. Shop accordingly.
When oil prices were fluctuating airlines found it necessary to increase costs of travel related to the increase in cost of fuel. The same with shipping costs. These added costs were published and the added cost of products affected by tariffs should be also be attached to every item we purchase.
While I agree with you, do you really think these retailers who caved on DEI programs and policies (that you, Target?) would dare stand up and make this kind of overt public statement on tariffs? No way.
Absolutely!! It's a great idea.
He doesn't want you to know, so he can avoid responsibility and blame something else
Just label them "Trump's Terrific Tariffs". He's talked non stop about them for over a year. You would think that he would be proud of his greatest achievement.
I sure do want to know how much of the coming high prices are due to tariffs, but Trump doesn’t want us to know. Hello! Wake up America! Why do you think Trump doesn’t want us to know?
Would love to see Costco do it.
Absolutely want to see the tariff cost! Retailers will go out of business if they can’t show reasons for price hikes. Trump says the “other countries” pay the tax lol. If that were true, Trump wouldn’t be so afraid of people finding out the truth
They separate out state and local taxes. It’s super easy.
Not a chance
Plus, showing tariff increases keeps retailers honest rather than raising prices now simply bc they can.
And the reason we need that is just like the stock market which is floundering under his policies, he will try to lie about prices.
Abosof***inglutely!
Amazon already apparently backed off doing it.
Yeah, if they want liberal customers back, show us how much Trump taxes are costing us.
Drumpf called Bezos and he bent the knee. Trump tariffs won't be on Amazon
Its the Magatax
I suspect the empty shelves will have the same effect
This BOTCHED Raid on innocent American Citizens shows their Lawlessness. Makes my blood boil 😡😡 kfor.com/news/local/w...
If the tariff rate/cost isn't listed, then you're wondering if the retailer is just price-gouging.
Consumers need to know! 🤑 Even if we have to figure it out ourselves! 😡
Really brilliant though that Trump's spokesperson explained to all Americans that they as American consumers will pay for Trump's tariffs and only because the tariffs are his idiosyncrasy.
If we don’t see the tariff tax on our bill it will NOT GO AWAY when repealed.
Print that shit on the receipt!
Otherwise, we will think you retailers and CPG companies are price gouging again!
Yes, we deserve to know the amount of the tax we are all paying. We also deserve to see the prices drop again when tariffs are dropped. Or Trump drops dead. Whichever comes first. We're going to have to keep boycotting these retailers if they don't do it.
Absolutely!
Bezos caved after a call from the Orange Felon, spineless ass🤬☠️
After a call from the Orange Felon, Bezos caved🤬he won’t be doing this🤮
I’ll go elsewhere if any retailers won’t show me the added tariff or I’ll just do without.
Contact your State's Consumer Fraud Bureau (or equivalent) and demand transparency in pricing. If they could put Biden did this on gas pumps surely we can demand this!
The sales tax is listed on every receipt, I also want to see what else I am paying. That would include tariffs.
I hope Amazon goes broke.
Lots of companies do that. My friggin airline tickets and hotels, why not retail?
I'm hoping Costco does it.
I agree!
Absofuckinlutely!
Beautiful idea.💯✅️
Yes! It’s called Transparency.
It should just be added at the end of the bill like taxes. Adding it to the retail price is not cool because it will become permanent even when the next president drops the tariffs.
“tRump tariffs” in big bold red letters & an * (@ the bottom of receipt) *thanks to tRump voters
Amazon already backtracked on doing it. Trump bitched to Bezos.
AMEN!
What’s worse is if they bury it in the sales price we will also be paying sales tax on tariffs for taxable things. Tax on tax!
Show the increase due to tarrifs
Like I read elsewhere, the Trump Tariffs need to be shown in all transparency and to show, if the tariffs are removed, that prices do not remain inflated.
Yes!! It's insane. .50 more per gallon of gas. Heard a few different people talking about rising prices in Walmart today. Even wash connect app went up.
They are so proud of it and insist the importing country pays the tariffs, so what are they afraid of? 🙄
The problem is that it is a cost increase. If business wants to keep profit margin % it has to essentially double the cost increase. If anyone dies it as an adder, the line item should read trump tax
👍Absolutely. I agree 100% that we should know what we're being taxed by EVERY business."NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION".👍
Amazon capitulated to tRUMP. Bc in the tariff deal tRUMP is negotiating with India, Bezos gets to start Amazon India ...
Oh my! Thank you, Lea!
Oof
Yeah but last I heard Amazon bent the knee and they went back on their promise
Bezos already backed down because he’s a coward and I guess he’s okay living in an authoritarian dictatorship. Do you really think Walmart and Target are going to stand up to trump? Target already buckled on the DEI pressure campaign. All afraid of that big, stupid, fucking oaf.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
If you’re shopping in a country overseas that has a VAT (value added tax) it’s listed along with the item’s price.
I refuse to shop at any national chain, but I have that luxury living in Brooklyn. I worry about what are bodegas and the local groceries are going to look like in 6 months.
Everyone shows the taxes , it's normal
Walmart, Target, Home Depot, …, they all kneel to Trump. Don’t expect them to point out tariffs. It’s the local businesses that I care about and support.
Yes
I totally agree!
Me too. Otherwise when the tariffs stop some of these corporations will continue to keep the prices high to rip us off.
I believe Temu do. Everyone who runs a retail business unless they are spineless fucking Cowards should do the same.
I want him removed. And a responsible, sane leader in the WH. Why chase him into the rabbit hole?
If a toy costs $5 to make, it gets a $7.25 tariff. Old retail $20. New retail $27.25. Products have perceived value. No one is buying a 6” plush for almost $30. Stores can’t afford to buy inexpensive items. Tariffs will destroy small biz
Manufacturers are still trying to figure out their pricing. Some have kept wholesale pricing the same and have added a 10% surcharge. Some are passing the tariff on.
Trumps such a moron for the condemnation of Amazon highlighting tarriff additions. That's what SMART business do. 😡
All totaled out. Right there on the receipt 🧾
