This is what happens when you start a trade war. Tariffs increase the cost of doing business in the U.S. These are the first casualties of the 2nd Trump tariff war. After the first Trump Tariff war in 2018, fully one third of income for U.S. farms was funded by tax payers in the form of a bailout and most of that went to multi-national agri-corps. Ever hear of the Smoot-Hawley tariffs? [After passing of the Smoot-Hawley tariff Act] U.S. imports from Europe declined from a 1929 high of $1,334 million to just $390 million in 1932, while U.S. exports to Europe fell from $2,341 million in 1929 to $784 million in 1932. Overall, world trade declined by some 66% between 1929 and 1934. Smoot-Hawley marked the end of the line for high tariffs in 20th century American trade policy. Thereafter, beginning with the 1934 Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, the United States generally sought trade liberalization through bilateral or multilateral tariff reductions. To this day, the phrase “Smoot-Hawley” remains a watchword for the perils of protectionism. Milestones in the History of U.S. Foreign Relations - Office of the Historian

If the workers are surprised, they clearly did not pay attention to the financial reality of Sumitomo and of this particular plant. This plant was acquired by Sumitomo some time ago, and it has been underperforming since it was purchased and Sumitomo itself has found itself in an extremely competitive environment, and does not want to make the investment necessary to keep this plant going.

@@marcreynolds4473Companies run on profits, yeah? So they have people involved in watching politics, pushing for legislation that favors them, influencing taxes, and also watching the prices of their materials, right? So a tariff is a targeted fee on imports. For example, the US was fighting with France because France had a tariff on aircraft that protected their own aircraft industry, keeping their planes cheaper than Boeing aircraft. Boeing could not compete with the lower cost. So by promising to put a tariff on almost all imports, Trump has every company examining what will happen when the costs of their imported materials goes up. You seem to be unaware that almost every item is made with some amount of imported goods. From dog food to clothing, from tires to aircraft, from your veggies to your medications, there is import involved. A tariff is meant to protect an established industry from competition. We have very very few products that 100% made in the US from materials that originated in the US. It takes time to build a factory, time to find collect or mine raw materials and then process them into useable forms, and you have to have the infrastructure in place to do it. We don’t. We are not self sufficient, so all a tariff will do is increase prices for the things you and your family need. An estimate is that you will spend $3,000 a year more for the goods you buy now. And companies are looking at if they can stay profitable if their goods rely upon imports. Congratulations on electing a man who bankrupted his companies six times, and is in underwater in debt. Yup. Clearly, an economic genius. Well done.
They pulled the plug because Trumps Tariffs are on the way… good luck America, y’all voted for this, but by God that grocery bill is going to go down isn’t it?? 😂😂😂

@@kentuckygreg4725 No, the Biden administration haven’t threatened to charge 60% on everything coming from China and 20% on all other imports.

Be prepared for more companies moving out because they don’t want/need Trump’s BS.

Quite my job to pursue other career opportunities but was not aware that the plant I used to work at was going to close two weeks after I left. My friends and coworkers accused me of knowing that was going to happen, but it was not true. What I am trying to convey is that some of these closures are nothing more than business decisions owners and senior management make but for many reasons don't share with their loyal workers. Since then, I always assume that my place of work may have a lock and a chain on the entrance at any time without notice. Because of that, I learned to keep taps with the job market, remain relevant to secondary careers, and save enough to go at it without a job for at least an entire year. It sucks but that is a reality that may have nothing to do with the political temperature of the nation and economic challenges affecting the entire world.

Tariffs are only for imported goods and not for jobs that already exist inside USA. If these jobs go overseas then the imports are going to get taxed to discourage companies from sending jobs somewhere else. Layoffs are expected because Biden messed up the economy with all the damn inflation and being forced to raise interest rates to cool down the economy to cut the inflation. All that money spent on illegals 10 million sending money to Ukraine and Israel and who knows what other bullshit caused this inflation.
@@adammorgan9060 The US can manufacture, they can make US made but many raw materials must be imported.

I used to work for Bridgestone tire and they had a massive layoff at my plant when they shut down the passenger tire production there and moved it to a new plant in Mexico. The company had developed tire building machines that were fully automated. The machines do not require breaks, lunch, vacation, health insurance, pension/retirement/401k, payroll taxes and they never complain to HR or go on strike. As time goes on more manufacturing workers will lose their jobs to automation.

And go where?
This is what happens when you start a trade war. Tariffs increase the cost of doing business in the U.S. These are the first casualties of the 2nd Trump tariff war. After the first Trump Tariff war in 2018, fully one third of income for U.S. farms was funded by tax payers in the form of a bailout and most of that went to multi-national agri-corps. Ever hear of the Smoot-Hawley tariffs?
[After passing of the Smoot-Hawley tariff Act] U.S. imports from Europe declined from a 1929 high of $1,334 million to just $390 million in 1932, while U.S. exports to Europe fell from $2,341 million in 1929 to $784 million in 1932. Overall, world trade declined by some 66% between 1929 and 1934.
Smoot-Hawley marked the end of the line for high tariffs in 20th century American trade policy. Thereafter, beginning with the 1934 Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, the United States generally sought trade liberalization through bilateral or multilateral tariff reductions. To this day, the phrase “Smoot-Hawley” remains a watchword for the perils of protectionism.

If the workers are surprised, they clearly did not pay attention to the financial reality of Sumitomo and of this particular plant. This plant was acquired by Sumitomo some time ago, and it has been underperforming since it was purchased and Sumitomo itself has found itself in an extremely competitive environment, and does not want to make the investment necessary to keep this plant going.

@@marcreynolds4473Companies run on profits, yeah? So they have people involved in watching politics, pushing for legislation that favors them, influencing taxes, and also watching the prices of their materials, right?
So a tariff is a targeted fee on imports. For example, the US was fighting with France because France had a tariff on aircraft that protected their own aircraft industry, keeping their planes cheaper than Boeing aircraft. Boeing could not compete with the lower cost.
So by promising to put a tariff on almost all imports, Trump has every company examining what will happen when the costs of their imported materials goes up.
You seem to be unaware that almost every item is made with some amount of imported goods. From dog food to clothing, from tires to aircraft, from your veggies to your medications, there is import involved.
A tariff is meant to protect an established industry from competition. We have very very few products that 100% made in the US from materials that originated in the US. It takes time to build a factory, time to find collect or mine raw materials and then process them into useable forms, and you have to have the infrastructure in place to do it. We don’t. We are not self sufficient, so all a tariff will do is increase prices for the things you and your family need.
An estimate is that you will spend $3,000 a year more for the goods you buy now.
And companies are looking at if they can stay profitable if their goods rely upon imports.
Congratulations on electing a man who bankrupted his companies six times, and is in underwater in debt. Yup. Clearly, an economic genius. Well done.

Quite my job to pursue other career opportunities but was not aware that the plant I used to work at was going to close two weeks after I left. My friends and coworkers accused me of knowing that was going to happen, but it was not true. What I am trying to convey is that some of these closures are nothing more than business decisions owners and senior management make but for many reasons don't share with their loyal workers. Since then, I always assume that my place of work may have a lock and a chain on the entrance at any time without notice. Because of that, I learned to keep taps with the job market, remain relevant to secondary careers, and save enough to go at it without a job for at least an entire year. It sucks but that is a reality that may have nothing to do with the political temperature of the nation and economic challenges affecting the entire world.

@@PhrontDoorbecause price gouging is bad?
Has trump taken office yet? Or better yet, do you even know why Sumitomo closed their doors? Please, i'll wait.
@@jackedlynx3610 Read articles around the U.S. Many workers are reporting bonus cuts due to impending tariffs. Just you wait how companies react.
You realize all tariffs imposed by the U.S are paid by U.S consumers.
It’s the economic cycle… a job wasn’t supposed to be forever and ever. You were once needed and now you aren’t
Now that Rump is coming in, it is going to be worse!!!!! Get used to it! NO empathy for anyone who voted for him!! I will find joy in their misfortune!!! SMH
Didnt he say the company was owned by the Japanese?
😂
Bidenomics in full swing right here!
That's has nothing to do with Biden it is the way business and tariff work 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Y'all listening to Trump economy plan think that foreign countries pay tariffs when Americans business and world has and read a book or listening to one
@@marie1272955 This company was already in trouble, which happen under this administration... Just like the hundreds of other companies that have shut doors or had mass layoffs. Bidenomics in full swing!
Love it 😂
Keep em coming...y'all voted for this 🙌🏾
Their cult leader told them that eggs, milk and bacon would be cheaper soon! BAHAHAHA!!! 😅😅😆😆🤣🤣
@@GeeB1but they won’t have jobs to pay for them anyway 😂
This happened under Biden in case you dont know he's still the president dumba$$😂

The "Tarrifs" that stole Christmas 🎄
So it's not because this factory is over 100 years old and they just finished building a new one in Thailand? 🤣
They will blame him for eternity
Exactly
Sure it's because of tariffs , they must of offered them all jobs in Thailand right.
This is like the 6th place shut down since the election. Auto manufacturer here in Ohio closes Jan. 1st too. Y'all deny the tariffs are already causing issues are just seeing the start. Wait till nobody can afford anything it's coming. It's only been just over a week since election day and here we are. He's got another nice swamp collection going too
This is a business preservation tactic. The company wouldn’t have lasted with the new tariffs.
The WARN Act requires companies to report layoffs 60 days prior if they have over 50 employees. Check the WARN Act list for your state. Hope that helps.
Lol u are funny
Not going to work , they won't answer Americans law, they left and more will follow jobs will be lost, progress reversed all in the name of orange jesus
Seriously? Do you honestly expect Trump's appointees to enforce the law?
@@anitadees4223Trump is not president genius, 😂 he just got elected.
Good suggestion there's over a handful of companies in Ohio reporting their layoff plans through 2026
Straight out of Trump's playbook on how to fire people..
You are and idiot. Biden is in office
Wrong. This is a product of the Democrats. High tax state NY. Too much government borrowing causing massive inflation. Now People can't afford vehicles and the ripple effect takes hold. Can't build cars that need tires if no one can afford. Probably most of these tires went to the Jeep factory in Toledo. Place the blame where it belongs. Square on the Democrats, and running the country into the ground.
Another sore loser!
Is Trump currently in office??
You are for Harris ? So you actually believe women have a penis and men can get pregnant?
I'm dreaming of an orange Christmas, just like the one I had four years ago.
Enjoy your unemployment line
@@sd1660 Unemployment services won't even exist anymore. If they don't have a way to make money off you, they don't care about you.
what are you talking about?
I'm sorry for your nightmares/memories. You're in the very best company, if it's any consolation. 🤗
Four years ago Checks had to be sent out so people wouldn't starve to death and food lines were miles long under Trump......Oh how soon people forget!

Just wait until Trump's tariffs, companies will close everywhere. Good job magabillies.
😂😂 Biden kept all trumps Tariffs.. Lol.. Some he even increased more tariffs.. Lol😂..
Pls go back to school..and learn basic economy 101..😂
Tariffs are to keep companies from leaving like they have been doing for 4 years thanks to Bidenomics !
It’s a job, not a family. Your economy is going to tank due to tariffs.
Trump's Tariff at work!
Aren't you silly. Tariffs would protect American jobs. Blue state taxes and regulations force businesses to move to other (red) states.
Ignorance
@@forbeshutton5487it didn’t protect their jobs in this case, but good work with the mental gymnastics 😂

That’s why unions matter.
Unions blow.
@@BrandonLetsgo-vq9ns Nope! They rule!

How is a union going to help since the whole place closed? They going to go on strike when they've already been let go?
@@rogersmith7808the union may be able to secure severance packages for the workers, depending on the conditions of the contract…this shutdown has less to do with business conditions and more to do with impending tariffs. Expect to see more of this kind of thing…
They been doing this since manufacturing plants began.... always be looking and always keep expanding your skillsets..
It's been my experience that anytime a corporation or a business sees higher costs ahead, they lay off. Lets keep our fingers crossed we won't see what happened in the 70s we lost many many jobs as our companies layed us off, and moved our jobs to the Philippines
We're going to see companies move out. Unlike back in the 70s though it won't be for cheaper labor and fewer regulations.
@@judithelaine9285 Yep that happened to my Aunt & several other relatives working in manufacturing companies. In the 70’s & early 80’s.
they are also moving out of china. so it's going to wreck their economy also.
Those impending tariffs are making big business freak. Sad.
Nope. They'll raise the prices and use tariffs as the excuse.
Due to climate change we won't be able to grow wheat here, so we will have to import it. But now with a tarif it will cost twice as much to import. Can't have that cost eating into corporate profits so they will double it and pass it onto consumers. That $4 loaf of bread will now cost you $7
You can grow wheat here
@@yeahyou8416 yes you can, but for how much longer? Have you been paying attention to the droughts and floods the last few years? The amount of land where we can produce crops is shrinking. Also, urban sprawl is gobbling up prime ag ground at an alarming rate as well.
@@abjectt5440 NOPE WRONG " DONNIE LIED TO YOU " ENJOY YOUR CHEAP EGGS AND BACON NOW!!!😁😅🤣😂🤭🤭🤭
That is so f'd up. Hopefully they all find something soon. Try to always save something and try not to live above your means. Hope for the best but prepare for the worse
Harris/Walz voters understand that and will survive. Trump voters worship the obscenely rich, the very people who keep them down. They will suffer and many won't survive Trump's Dept of Health and Human Services.
Had something similar happen to me- drove Charter buses and came to work to chained doors without ANY heads up that they were shuddering the business. Always remember to look out for #1 because corporations don't care.
Call , Trump will fix it 🙄
Not in New York or California! Nobody can fix what Democraps have done here !

EXACTLY
And it’s been just peachy the last four years? Wake up. They’re all the same puppets.
@ it’s been as fine as it can be. Remember, inflation started under Trump during COVID, after he was gifted a great economy by Obama. Trump is promising tariffs that will raise the price of everyday items. And if he goes thru with mass deportations, your produce is about to get a lot more expensive. Call it karma!
@DebbieBaxter-v4s explain your position, ill be waiting
@@markwilliams4525 Trump announced that he will be implementing tariffs that will raise the prices of goods in the US. Mass deportation will also lead to produce prices rising because Americans don’t want those jobs, as we learned in the last Trump administration. Companies are now preparing to do what they have to do to survive those tariffs, which financial experts warned months ago will crash the economy.
A paid week off should make bells go off.
Sounds like a tariff casualty.
I just checked and it seems Buffalo majority vote Trump;so I guess karma starts working for supporting a president wants to tariff foreign companies and less friendly to unions; what do you expect?!
Highly doubt that -- Buffalo is blue.
Tariffs don't apply to products made in the US, smart guy.
@@paddyohenry6428You see rubber trees in America? Where do you think materials come from? They import them in! Not so smart are you 🙄
@@GlobalCitizen_y2kBuffalo voted for Trump, they got what they voted for.
@@paddyohenry6428 80% of "American made" products are made with foreign parts, smart guy. It's still cheaper to assemble the goods abroad because labor costs are so much lower.

@@marcreynolds4473 Come on now you know he’s talking about Trump & his MAGA supporters. Anyway layoffs are happening all the time.

@@marcreynolds4473 Trump. Trump said that. Remember when he has all these groceries laid out with made up prices at Mara lago in the sweltering heat so it would spoil faster
Trump not even in and these companies are laying off and cutting back.
How can you call your employees "family" when you just take away their food, clothing, water, and shelter
Never ever work somewhere that says they are family oriented it simply means family will come first wether you are more qualified or not you will lose
People say we're a family that's BS talk..
😂😂😂😂
Trump is not even president yet and crap is already starting. Expect more layoffs when Trump is president.
Unfortunately, Trump has been a shadow President for the past four years.
And if Harris was elected this would not happen? This decision was made way before the election.
this is on Joke Biden, mr. union man that has f-d' over union workers for 50 yrs.
Seriously ? Hes not even sworn in yet and your already blaming him for almost 4 years of biden/harris failures ? Get some help !
He has yet to start his 2nd term you dingus.
Trump isn't even in office yet, and it's already starting.
But the Democrats said unemployment is low, stock market is strong, economy is a powerhouse. Why would a Democrat lie ? answer : Because they can. Thanks Joe !
