I'm an American but Haiden will be lucky to get a whiff of Jett's exhaust. Deegs is amazing no doubt, but God made Jett for MX.

Aldons program has won championships for Carmichael, Stewart, Villopoto, Dungey, Osbourne, Hampshire, Anderson, Sexton, and I can't even think now of how many other riders through the years. The track record is long and speaks for itself. Almost everyone of those riders has complained at some time about the grueling workouts and diet, but what can you say about the success?

No kidding, they are adults. Do they have a curfew and need to stay on the premises at all times when training there? Go get a steak or pizza every now and then, they are burning enough calories each day to enjoy a meal or two

Damn, if only he would eat less and be even thinner then he would have enough energy to last a moto. Aldons program is borderline retarded. AP looks like a breeze would blow him over.

Our company had a facility in China that we closed before the election. Unfortunately it was moved to Mexico and not the US…but it’s been close to 2 years and the transition is still not complete and products in production have large back orders. Validations and audits make everything more difficult and time consuming than it should be…there is no way companies are going to go to production in the US before this administration is at a minimum half over if they didn’t already have plans in progress and manufacturing space already available.

The bottom line is tariffs are a US tax on imported goods paid by the importer (the buyer). The exporter (the seller) sells the goods to the importer and the importer pays the exporter for the goods and also pays the tariff tax to the US government. The exporter never pays anyone, the exporter only exchanges goods for a payment. Only the importer is the one paying, both the exporter for said goods and the US government's tariff tax. Tariffs are essentially a national sales tax for purchasing goods from certain countries. Whether tariffs are good policy or not is...

Where is the inflation going down info coming from ? The government they lie about everything. I don’t see the price of anything go down. I see all the prices going up . Orders on everything is down but beer. We only had 1 1/2 yrs since 07 to make any money in trucking . It’s sucks big time now wages drop when there is no freight . Less wages less freight less money . But crazy expensive to be on the rd . Super numb leg, foot from Thursday injection yet . I hv more apts

100%. Realistically, for smaller companies (up to 9 figures) it's almost impossible to move production to the US. My company produces almost 20M worth of product a year. And we're not even close to big enough to even think about moving production to the US. Larger corporations may be a different story (but even for them it's hard and depending on the product might be impossible). But then again I'm not sure if it's a great idea to cause a market consolidation at the cost of innovation.

'Also, my company has an initiative to move out of China and source more from the US…moving more production (high paying jobs) back to the US. Many US companies are also demanding more products they purchase be made in the US..all good things..especially for US made products.' How is any of this going to work outside of a heavily protectionist economy in which the said companies get propped up by government subsidies and handouts? The only way for US companies to cover the massively increased costs of producing in the US - aside from subsidies - is by pushing up...

That's great it worked out for your company on all fronts! Hopefully more companies are forced to take a look at their operations and are able to do something similar. But, this certainly won't be true for all companies in all industries. Some will have a very different situation. The helmet that started this thread is one such example. Another example: anything injection molded is going up. Even if the parts are made in the USA and the materials are made in the USA, the tooling to make the parts almost certainly is not. And injection mold tooling is EXPENSIVE...

One by one here: Sure- if you go back to the original post he said the price of the helmet increased from $729 —> $839 because of tariffs..that’s more than 2.7%…which is approx what my company is seeing across the board in increased costs this year.. The price increase is likely related to BOTH the 2.7% increase and the (who knows what they are now %) tariff. It's also likely to be related to the cost of various other business aspects going up related to the tariffs and inflation - machinery, fuel, shipping, sponsorship costs, literally everything. You can't just...
