Annoying Orange is starting a massive trade war with China and it's not going to be good.
China is by far the world's biggest exporter of rare earth metals - stuff we need for tech like smartphones, tablets, etc.
The Chinese bought out our major industrial producers of said metals, who were in central US, decades ago -- then they shut them down and moved operations to their homeland.
The end result of these tariffs will be a cost burden on the consumer.
Trade will decrease, price of goods will increase, and the two governments will reap massive profits from exorbitant tariffs.
Basically you're getting forgeted and the government is lining their pockets while the idiots cheer on to fine them more with tariffs like a big richard swinging contest.
