                  @belongsinforums: Also Obama and Scomo both talked about their Christianity in wildly different terms. Scomo literally said he was on a mission from god.

                  @belongsinforums: Actually only 71 million did in a country of 377 million people the majority did not vote .
                  And pH hot nearly 70 million and he has so far done the opposite to what he run for he hasn't done one thing to help the American people apart from his billionaire friends. If you was to have the election today 67% would not vote for him again. If this was Australia he would have been out of a job well he wouldn't have had it in the 1st place

                  • @Shaun Ross: Not voting is the same as voting for Trump, effectively. He ran on the promise of tarrifs and tried implementing them last time too. He also ran big on anti immigration and has fulfilled that. Nothing he's doing is a surprise. To say otherwise is ignorant

                • @belongsinforums: Got 1.5% more votes than Harris of the people who bothered turning out, and didn’t clear 50%. Sure, there is a majority, but it’s hardly the overwhelming mandate the White House and his sycophant supporters portray it as.

                  Wonder how many registered voters who didn’t bother leaving the house are feeling now about their choices.

                @wtfisgoingon: I agree, the man is a buffoon, and a dangerous one at that. And the court jester Musk is on a power trip that money alone cannot buy.

                But Tesla's are great cars. People need to be able to separate the two

                • +4

                  @gasman70: What separation?

                  Musk is using the money from the purchase of Tesla cars to empower Trump. He literally bought votes in Wisconsin by handing out cheques. By buying Tesla cars you are enabling further empowerment of Trump.

                  There is no separation. Buying Musk's products directly empowers Trump.

                  • -1

                    @wtfisgoingon: Do you realise how much Musk is worth? You think that not buying a Tesla today will change anything?

                    What if they got rid of him as CEO….would you still consider Tesla to be 'toxic'?

                    • +2

                      @gasman70: This is the problem with Australians. We long ago gave up any sense of our political power and are completely incapable of thinking about things through the lens of collective action. It's why unions are struggling with membership and why workers keep getting taken for a ride.

                      My individual decision would not, no. The collective decisions of every person around the world who is in the market would. It would crater the value of Tesla and inflict personal economic pain on Musk, which in turn may make him step back.

                      By choosing to ignore that, and think solely about yourself and what is best for you, you cede all power and participate in a system that is enabling and powering Trump. Solely because you want a specific brand of car.

                      If Tesla got rid of Musk as CEO and he divested from the brand, I would not judge people who bought one. As it is, I consider it a morally indefensible decision.

                      • -3

                        @wtfisgoingon: The moral angle can be directed at almost everthing we buy, whether it's milk, Nike's, Apple products, almost all clothing manufacturers, Chinese made product, petroleum products, etc.

                        We either buy what is right for us, or what's right for humanity. There is very little inbetween.

                        Let he without sin……..

                        • +5

                          @gasman70: There is a huge moral difference among all those things. It's immensely shortsighted to say that just because everything can have a moral consequence there is no need to question the morality of anything.

                          The moral difference between me buying a chicken from a local free range farmer who has raised it in a low impact way is wildly different from buying it from a factory farm. The moral difference between me buying milk is wildly different from me buying shares in a weapons company.

                          My EV is a Hyundai. While Hyundai are far from perfect, I made a moral assessment of them as a company versus Tesla and decided they were a company I preferred to support.

                          Just because everything has moral consequences does not mean those moral consequences are equal and does not mean we can abstain from the moral consequences of our actions.

                          • -4

                            @wtfisgoingon: My examples were deliberately wide ranging, but buying a pair of Nike's or an iPhone made in a Bangladeshi sweatshop, or a Chinese prison is OK for you? How about buying a General Motors, Tesla, BYD, Toyota, or Volkswagen? All of these are directly linked to the forced imprisonment and labour or the Uyghurs. Is this morally OK? Is buying a Tesla really so bad? Of course Musk is an imbecile, and driven by power. He's making some awful decisions, both politically and business wise, and I've no doubt they will come back to haunt him, but Trump is not in power purely because of him. Let's be honest here, winning an election with Trump as your opponent should be an easy victory.

                            Anyway, you do you, and let everyone else do them.

                  @gasman70: they are still making cars, people are still buying and enjoying them, why would you buy an inferior car to make a point they don’t care about. bigger problem for tesla is china makes batteries, cheaper labour and it’s created more options for EV buyers, people buy based on price and features.

          • @Fuzor: This is stupid, almost sounds like you are trying to make a joke.

            Iven it it was a fair comparison - there are plenty of users at OB who weren't alive of politically active at the time of the start of that war. That doesn't mean they can't have, or voice their opinions now or that it's inconsistent to do that.

            @Fuzor: You may recall that our decision to follow Bush Jr to Iraq resulted in some of the largest protests in Australia's history. So yes, people did say that.

            • @wtfisgoingon: At least Trump admits the Iraq invasion was wrong and stupid. Have anyone here said anything along that line? All we did was put out ads about being alert but not alarmed at these Iraqi terrorists

              • +1

                @Fuzor: Great that he is willing to admit that invading a dictatorship like Iraq was wrong, similar with Afghanistan and so on. Has he admitted that invading a democracy like Canada, Denmark, or Panama would be even worse?

              • @Fuzor: Ummm… Obama beat Hilary Clinton in the primary in no small part because he opposed the Iraq war. The Labor party at the time opposed Australia's participation in the Iraq war. I'm really not sure where you're getting this weird idea that everyone in Australia supported it?

                I personally marched against the Iraq war. Although granted I was a young teenager and heavily influenced by my parents.

                By contrast, Trump only vocally opposed the war after public sentiment turned against it:https://www.factcheck.org/2016/02/donald-trump-and-the-iraq-war/

                Why are you pushing this dated political issue? Do you want a reason to support Trump?

        • +29

          That's a ridiculous assessment. A tariff is a CUSTOMS DUTY levied on imports to increase the cost relative to domestically produced goods.

          Previously imports less than $1K value avoided paying ANY APPROPRIATE customs duty, as well as the 10% GST that applies to all australian goods (ignoring minor categories like raw foodstuffs) Most classifications of goods imported to australia don't face any customs duty (ie tariff)
          …..meaning that imported goods had at tax ADVANTAGE over local goods because GST wasn't paid on them.

          Removing that $1K import threshold exemption means that imported goods pay the same GST as australian goods. That's not protection, and it's not a tariff.

          • @rooster7777: Actually, from an Australian perspective, Trump’s trade policy—particularly his use of tariffs as a negotiating tool—deserves more credit than it often gets. While the common narrative frames tariffs as purely protectionist, what Trump has done is shift the global conversation from a passive acceptance of asymmetrical trade deals to one where fairness, reciprocity, and strategic leverage are front and centre. That shift doesn’t just benefit the U.S.—it benefits partners like Australia too, in ways that are often overlooked.

            Let’s start with the basics: yes, under AUSFTA, many American goods enter Australia duty-free, but the picture isn’t as black-and-white as it seems. Vehicles from the U.S. still attract a 5% import duty, and if they’re priced over the luxury threshold (currently $76,950 for fuel-efficient vehicles and $71,849 for others), they’re subject to up to 33% in Luxury Car Tax—a tax that has long been criticised for being both outdated and economically distortionary. U.S.-made spirits such as bourbon face a complex cocktail of import tariffs, excise duties, and GST, often pushing the total tax burden well above 50% of the product’s retail value. Tobacco imports are even more extreme, with combined levies reaching over 70%, effectively locking U.S. producers out of the Australian market.

            From this angle, Trump’s imposition of tariffs on foreign goods—particularly from countries that maintain non-tariff barriers, currency manipulation, or state-backed subsidies—isn’t just a nationalist move. It’s a long-overdue push for reciprocal treatment. And this helps Australia in two key ways.

            First, it raises the global standard for trade negotiations. If the U.S. succeeds in securing fairer terms with trading partners—especially large economies like China, the EU, and India—it sets a precedent. It strengthens the position of smaller economies like Australia, which often lack the sheer market power to force change unilaterally. Trump’s use of tariffs in the USMCA negotiations (the NAFTA replacement) resulted in tighter rules of origin, more equitable labour provisions, and improved market access for U.S. farmers. Australia stands to gain from this precedent when negotiating our own trade deals, particularly in Asia-Pacific, where market access is often conditional and opaque.

            Second, a more balanced global trading system helps protect Australia’s competitive exporters—in sectors like agriculture, mining, education, and services. When countries like China flood global markets with state-subsidised goods, it undercuts both U.S. and Australian producers. Trump’s aggressive stance against these distortions has already led to the WTO reform debate gaining momentum, which is vital for smaller export-oriented economies like ours. Australia relies heavily on rules-based trade—we don’t have the scale to engage in trade wars, but we benefit immensely when larger players challenge those who undermine the system.

            There’s also a domestic benefit. Trump’s actions have reignited discussion in Australia around our own trade vulnerabilities—such as our dependence on a handful of markets, our exposure to supply chain shocks, and our over-reliance on foreign manufacturing. The COVID-19 pandemic exposed many of these gaps, and Trump’s America First framework has become, ironically, a blueprint for economic resilience that many in Canberra are now emulating. We’ve seen increased investment in local manufacturing, energy independence initiatives, and a broader push to diversify trade relationships—moves that align with the strategic rebalancing Trump championed.

            Finally, it’s worth noting that trade policy isn’t just about economics—it’s about sovereignty. By using tariffs as leverage, Trump has challenged the notion that free trade must always be unconditional. In doing so, he’s encouraged nations like ours to think more critically about who we trade with, under what terms, and to what end. That’s a good thing. It’s made trade a matter of national interest, not just economic theory.

            In summary, Trump’s approach to tariffs and trade policy—far from being a reckless or isolationist strategy—has forced a much-needed reset of the global trade landscape. It’s reasserted the importance of fairness, strategic independence, and reciprocal access. And for Australia, a country that thrives when global markets are stable, transparent, and rules-based, that’s not just good news—it’s a significant opportunity.

              @50cent: A whole lot of words this time, but nonsense.

              Vehicles from the US- face exactly the same customs duty and gst/ luxury car tax as all other vehicles sold in the australian market. There is no protection at all for australian motor cars because australia makes no cars…. ie there is no trade barrier targetting america.

              Alcohol - all alcohol products face the same combination of taxes as applied to australian made alcohol products. … ie there is no trade barrier targetting america

              Tobacco- all alcohol products imported into australia face the same customs duty and gst…. there is no protection at all for australian products, because australia doesn't make tobacco products….. ie there is no trade barrier targetting america

              Trump's imposition of "reciprocal tariffs" is a farce. The calculations are a primary school intelligence calculation of a country's exports to the US divided by imports from the US, with a 10% jacking if that amount if negative. There is no calculation of import protections or non trade barriers. Hence the 10% import duty on australian products other than steel or aluminium… despite australia having a trade deficit with the US.

              "When countries like China flood global markets with state-subsidised goods, it undercuts both U.S. and Australian producers" it now becomes glaringly obvious you didn't write this garbage… you just hoovered it up from some propaganda site. What exactly do you think australia competes with china as an exporter?

              So much of this paste of garbage words are just that… words that have no actual meaning. No mainstream economic analysis in the world says this rubbish… I presume you got if off a maga/ trumpian website.

          What they did was remove a tax loophole that when we didn't have online trading made sense and as much as I was pissed it was removed and still hate Gerry for his role in that it was at least a fair and understandable move. The US NEVER had such exemptions, they charge their sales tax regardless of where the goods come from at point of sale. So NO GST is not a tariff, it is a sales tax. If GST is a tariff then the US actually slap us with a 17% tariff as they have an average of 7% GST as well.

        • +12

          Let me spell this out, because people like you really don't seem to get it.

          A value added tax, like the GST, applies to everything. Applying it to imports only levels the playing field with goods that are sold domestically.

          A tariff, by its very definition, is discriminatory. It applies only to imports.

          These are therefore not even remotely the same thing.

        • the $1000 was only applied to companies they could get to collect, e.g ebay, i buy lots of things from small companies overseas and don’t pay gst if under $1000 as too expensive for govt to collect.

      • hurting this country how? if you were to say slightly hurting the profits of the richest people in australia exporting to USA you'd be far more on point
